DXP HD 4K models. About the DXP HD 4K Series Matrix Switchers The Extron DXP HD 4K series are digital matrix switchers that route HDMI signals from multiple sources to any or all of up to 16 HDMI-equipped display devices.
The DXP HD 4K series switchers all provide easy integration in applications that require reliable HDMI signal routing. They include several convenience features common to Extron matrix switchers such as SpeedSwitch, EDID Minder, Key Minder, global presets, and Ethernet control. In addition, digital audio can be de-embedded from any input and assigned to digital or analog stereo outputs.
