Gefen has added the EXT-UHD600A-44 matrix to its Ultra HD 600 MHz series of signal distribution products.
The product routes video and audio from HDMI sources and provides output scaling to incorporate UHD and HD displays. The matrix accepts the HDMI 2.0 signal at 4K 60 Hz at 4:4:4 Chroma subsampling, along with HDR (High Dynamic Range) and HDCP 2.2 support.
It delivers Ultra HD and DCI/cinema picture quality up to 4096 X 2160 pixels at 60 frames per-second without subsampling colour. Independent scalers, built into each output, allow two of the outputs on the EXT-UHD600A-44 to downscale a 4K signal to 1080p full HD while the other two outputs can upscale an HD signal to 4K Ultra HD. The audio breakout features enable audio to be extracted from each output and routed to a separate audio amplifier for added impact in large venues or for use in multi-zone applications. The EXT-UHD600A-44 includes a professional API and Long Range Power (LRP).
Two USB power ports have been included on the back panel and it has been designed to work with Gefen Syner-G software.
