This high quality device provides electronic switching so that four HDMI sources
can be connected to a single input. You can easily switch your HDTV
display between four HDMI sources. It is the perfect solution for connecting
DVD players, satellite receivers, HDTV set top boxes, or any HDMI-enabled
equipment to a single input.
This improved model is a pure HDMI solution, so unlike some earlier designs, it fully supports both HDMI video and HDMI audio. This model also features "EQ" controls for each of the inputs, which allows it to work with longer input cables. Notice too that Gefen has placed all of the inputs and outputs on
the back of the unit, so installation is neater than with a switcher that has connection on more that one side.
It comes with an IR remote control, and it has discrete codes so that it can
easily be controlled by universal remote controls/macros. If you would
like to be able to locate the switcher so that it is not visible, please click
here to check out the Gefen IR Extender.
The switcher works equally well with HDMI or DVI video, so any mix of HDMI and DVI equipment is possible. The package includes HDMI/HDMI cables, but we can substitute HDMI/DVI conversion cables available at no additional cost - just specify your choice when you check out. If you do not specify, we will ship
all cables with HDMI/HDMI terminations.
Gefen's description

Access up to Four Sources From One Display
4 Sources + 1 Display = Greater Integration Options
Gefen’s 4x1 HDMI Switcher routes high definition video in multiple resolutions up to 1080p plus multichannel digital audio from any of four sources. four inputs accommodate the simultaneous connection of up to four high definition video sources, such
as satellite systems and HD DVD players. The output sends the high definition audio/video signals to a high definition display. Switching is done via the IR remote that is provided with the unit.
This HDMI product supports BOTH Audio and Video signals.
Fully HDCP Compliant
HDCP (high bandwidth digital content protection) is a standard encoded into the video signal to prevent it from being pirated. If a source device is HDCP coded and is connected to a display or projector without the proper decoding mechanism, the picture is relegated to “snow” or in some cases, very low
(480P) resolutions of the images. In order to see high resolution digital video with HDCP compliance, both the source, the display and anything in between must be equipped with HDMI connections that can enable HDCP decoding, such as the 4x1 HDMI Switcher.
How it Works
You simply connect all your sources to the Switcher’s inputs. Then connect the display on the output port. Once the sources, the Switcher and the display(s) are powered and connected, you simply select which source you want to view using the IR remote.
