This 4×2 HDMI to HDBaseT/HDMI Matrix with Stereo Amplifier provides high performance audio and video support, including HDR and ARC, making it ideally suited for multi-zone residential or corporate installations. Any of four highbandwidth (18Gbps) HDMI sources may be routed to either of the two HDBaseT Zone outputs via a single Cat.5e/6/7 cable (up to 70m at 1080p or up to 35m at 4K) with Zone A’s output also being mirrored to a local HDMI output. Despite HDBaseT’s 10.2Gbps bandwidth limitation, 4K UHD HDMI video sources, up to and including 4K@60Hz (4:4:4, 8-bit) as well as 10/12-bit sources with HDR, are able to be processed and extended by the use of AVLC (Adaptive Visually Lossless Compression) when connected to compatible AVLC Receivers providing gorgeous video quality. Pass-through of multiple digital audio formats such as LPCM 7.1, Bitstream and advanced HD Bitstream with audio sampling rates up to 192kHz are supported via the HDBaseT and HDMI outputs. Additionally, the integrated stereo amplifier provides up to 40 watts of power (20W per channel) for local speakers to output the audio from the sources routed to either of the HDBaseT outputs, or from the ARC audio coming back from the display connected to the HDMI output, offering a flexible sound experience (LPCM 2.0 sources only). This unit also contains a specialised IR learning and smart-routing functionality. IR codes from each connected source’s remote can be learned and then recalled using this unit’s dedicated remote control, or the mobile device app. Intelligent IR routing ensures that only the IR signals appropriate to the source being viewed in the current zone are used by the dedicated remote control while the mobile device app provides the ability to send IR commands to control any connected source. IR command sets may also be uploaded or downloaded to/from the unit via XML files. The 48V PoH (Power over HDBaseT) function can provide power to compatible Receivers, providing greater flexibility in installations. This unit can be controlled in a wide variety of different ways including front panel buttons, RS232, IR remote, Telnet, WebGUI and a mobile device app.
