Extron has released its IN1806 and IN1808 series seamless presentation switchers with 18 Gbps support and 4K/60 @ 4:4:4 video scaling.
They feature Extron’s Vector 4K scaling engine with 30-bit internal video processing. The switchers include Extron ProDSP audio processing, seamless video transition effects, and logo keying. Each model provides a mix of DisplayPort and HDMI inputs along with an assignable input loop-through and simultaneous HDMI and DTP2 twisted pair outputs. All IN1808 models feature two additional DTP2 inputs. IN1808 models are available with an integrated 100 watt stereo or mono power amplifier and built-in IPCP Pro control processor. The products are suitable for use in meeting rooms, boardrooms, classrooms, and collaboration environments that require support for 4K/60 video.
DTP2 connections support 4K/60 @ 4:4:4 colour and enable signal extension of video, audio, and control signals up to 100 meters over a shielded CATx cable. They are compatible with DTP and DTP2 products and support integration with XTP CrossPoint matrix switchers. In addition, the DTP2 output can be configured to send signals to an HDBaseT-enabled display.
