About the HC 404 System

The Extron HC 404 System is an AV presentation solution. It incorporates a built-in control
processor for display control via HDMI Consumer Electronics Control (CEC), RS-232, IR, or
Ethernet. It also includes digital I/O ports.
The HC 404 features four AV inputs and one output. It consists of a three-input switching
transmitter (HCT 103) and a scaling receiver (HCR 102) that has one HDMI input and one
connection from the transmitter. Together they extend video, audio, and control signals up
to 230 feet (70 m) over a single CAT x cable. TeamWork kits (which include cables and other
accessories) are also available for these systems.
The HCT 103 transmitter switches between an analog video and two digital (HDMI) video
inputs. If the selected input is HDMI, the extended video signal can be HDCP-compliant.
The HCR 102 receiver incorporates a high performance, HDCP compliant scaler that scales
video to provide a consistent output resolution to a display. It accepts video with resolutions
from 480i up to 1920x1200, 1080p, and 2K, and performs upscaling and downscaling with
multiple output rates up to 1920x1200, including HDTV 1080p/60 and 2K. The receiver
includes an on-screen display, test patterns, and EDID Minder.
The HC 404 system offers two auto-input switching modes, one of which automatically
selects sources based on input signals and also allows manual source selection via buttons.
Auto-switching modes can be enabled or disabled via Extron Product Configuration
Software. The "last connected" auto-switching mode is enabled by default (see
