Description
This is a brand new, factory fresh Gefen ex-tend-it HDTV Matrix Switcher, model
EXT-HDMI-444. We have this item in stock and ready for fast shipment!
This high quality device provides electronic switching so that up to four HDMI sources
can be connected to as many as many as four display devices. This is a
matrix switcher, so any of the four inputs may be viewed on any of the
four monitors. It is the perfect solution for connecting
DVD players, satellite receivers, HDTV set top boxes, or any HDMI-enabled
equipment.
Gefen's new design handles both HDMI video and HDMI audio, making this switcher an ideal choice for a wide variety of installations. It even has a coaxial digital audio output so that HDMI audio can be sent to an A/V receiver or processor. Notice too that all of the inputs are located on the back of the unit for a cleaner-looking installation. It comes with an IR remote control, and it has discrete
codes so that it can easily be controlled by universal remote controls/macros. The unit also has an "EXT-IR" port - if you would like to be able to locate the switcher so that it is not visible, please

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 also have 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.

Connect and access any four sources from up to four displays
4 Sources +
4 Displays = An Easily Integrated HDTV Matrix System
The 4x4 HDMI™ Matrix routes high definition video in multiple
resolutions up to 1080p plus multichannel digital audio from any of
the four HDMI™ sources to the displays. Four outputs gives you the
choice of sending high definition audio and video signals up to four
displays. Any four to any four matrix switching allows for maximum
versatility for integrated systems. The 4x4 HDMI Switcher eliminates
the need to disconnect and reconnect sources to a display equipped
with one input. It works with HD-DVD players, TiVo systems, HT PCs,
and satellite set top boxes that connect to an HDMI display. Every
source is accessible at all times by any display by selecting it
with an IR remote.
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 4x4 HDMI Matrix.
How it works
You
simply connect the sources to the Matrix's inputs. Then connect four
displays to the Matrix's outputs. Once the sources, the matrix and
the displays are powered and connected, you simply select which
sources you want view on which displays using the IR remote.
