Digital conversion of analog input signals — Analog signals are digitized, ensuring
•
that a reliable, high quality digital video signal is sent to the output destination.
Auto-input switching — Can be set to automatically switch to the highest or lowest
•
priority input with an active video signal for simplified operation.
•
HDMI specification features — Support data rates up to 6.75 Gbps, Deep Color up
to 12-bit, 3D, and HD lossless audio formats.
•
User-selectable HDCP authorization — Allows individual inputs to appear HDCP
compliant or non-HDCP compliant to the connected source, which is beneficial if the
source automatically encrypts all content when connected to an HDCP-compliant
device. Protected material is not passed in non-HDCP mode.
EDID Minder — Automatically manages EDID communication between connected
•
devices. It ensures that all sources power up properly and reliably outputs content for
display.
Key Minder — Authenticates and maintains continuous HDCP encryption between
•
input and output devices to ensure quick and reliable switching in professional AV
environments, while enabling simultaneous distribution of a single source signal to one
or more displays.
•
Multiple embedded audio formats — Provides reliable operation with HDMI sources,
compatible with a broad range of multi-channel audio signals.
•
Selectable analog stereo audio input embedding — Supports unbalanced audio
for extended transmission. This feature enables direct connection of separate stereo
audio signals from a laptop, Blu-ray Disc™ player, or other device.
•
Audio input gain and attenuation — Allows the level of gain or attenuation to be set,
eliminating noticeable volume differences when switching between sources.
•
Ethernet extension — Centralized 10/100Base-T Ethernet communication can be
implemented via an Ethernet pass-through port to reduce the amount of independent
network drops required within a system.
•
Remote power capability — Allows the XTP T USW 103 to be powered by an XTP
CrossPoint Matrix Switcher or XTP Power Injectors to simplify integration.
Internal test patterns — Include five test patterns for calibration and setup.
•
•
RS-232 control — Features an RS-232 serial port for control and configuration.
Contact closure remote control availability
•
•
XTP system compatibility — Provides a completely integrated solution for multiple
digital and analog formats through XTP integrated system products. XTP is a flexible,
reliable signal switching and distribution system.
•
UL 2043 plenum rated — Meets UL 2043 for smoke and heat release for installation
within a plenum airspace above a drop ceiling - power supply excluded. Above-the-
ceiling placement conceals the device to prevent theft, and is convenient for installing
equipment when space inside the room is limited.
