OVERVIEW
BLACK BOX
Video Matrix Switches combine video sharing
®
and video splitter capabilities in one compact device!
With one of these switches, you can share up to four or eight
video display devices between two computers. Intelli gent functionality
gives you the flexibility to use a broad range of video devices, from
CRT and LCD monitors to new plasma TVs or video projectors.
They work with VGA, SVGA, XGA, and multisync monitors,
support monitors up to 1920 x 1440 resolution, and are VESA DDC
(DDC1, DDC2, DDC2B) compliant.
These matrix switches also provide 250-MHz bandwidth for
video clarity and integrity when connecting multiple video sources
to multiple screens.
What's more, a built-in signal booster amplifies and extends video
signals more than 200 feet—making the Video Matrix Switches great
for remote display applications where you want to distribute images
from a central secure room to public or non-secure areas.
Cabling is easy. Just link an HD15 video cable between your
computers' VGA cards and the "Video In" ports on the switch. Run
a separate HD15 cable from the "Video Out" ports to the monitors
or other display devices.
Front-panel pushbuttons enable you to configure the switch
to receive the image from either PC.
To cascade switches for an expanded setup, run a video cable
from the "Video Out" port of one switch to the 'Video In" port
of the second switch.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
The Video Matrix Switches are also ideal for multimedia control
rooms or stations, test bench facilities, classrooms, or distributing
media from the data center. They're the logical choice for any digital
signage application, including retail PoS setups or content distribution
in educational institutions or medical facilities.
Lightweight and easy to set up, they can also be used by
demonstrators at trade shows or conferences to disseminate and
present graphically rich content on multiple screens viewed by visitors.
Even better, their heavy duty cases can withstand the rigors of
temporary installations requiring quick setups and teardowns.
