Intelix DIGI-88B 8x8 HDMI Matrix Switcher / Distribution System

8 Inputs, 8 Local Outputs, plus 8 HDBaseT Outputs for Remote Zones

Intelix DIGI-88B 8x8 HDMI Matrix Switcher / HDBaseT Distribution System 

Intelix DIGI-88B 8x8 HDMI Matrix Switcher / HDBaseT Distribution System

The Intelix DIGI-88B 8x8 HDMI Matrix Switcher combines award-winning matrix switching capabilities with extender technology by the Valens  HDBaseT chipset.

The DIGI-88B can be used as a stand-alone HDMI matrix switcher, or add optional HDBaseT twisted-pair receivers to connect remote zones, creating  a sophisticated HDMI matrix distribution system.  Both local and HDBaseT outputs are active simultaneously, so a total of 16 local and remote zones can be driven.  Use standard HDMI cables for local zones and/or standard UTP twisted-pair cabling, such as Cat-6 to connect remote zones distances as great as 70 meters (225 feet) via the HDBaseT protocol.

HDBaseT twisted-pair receivers are sold separately below, so you can get exactly the functionality you need.  Use any combination of receivers, up to a total of eight receivers (add to your cart below):

  • DIGI-HDX-R Enclosed HDBaseT Receiver - HDMI, HDMI audio, up to 70 meters (230 feet) via one twisted-pair cable
  • DIGI-HDE-R Enclosed HDBaseT Receiver - HDMI, HDMI audio, bi-directional IR and RS-232, up to 70 meters (230 feet) via one twisted-pair cable
  • DIGI-HD60C-R Enclosed HDBaseT Receiver - HDMI, HDMI audio, bi-directional IR and RS-232, up to 60 meters (197 feet) via one twisted-pair cable
  • DIGI-HD60-R Enclosed HDBaseT Receiver - HDMI, HDMI audio up to 60 meters (197 feet) via one twisted-pair cable

The DIGI-88B handles HDMI HDTV video formats from 1080i to 1080p and computer resolutions up to 1920x1200, (including 3D formats), all non-ARC HDMI audio formats including 5-channel PCM, Dolby Digital TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, as well as bi-directional wideband IR signals.

Control the matrix system from the front panel, the included IR remote control, or use the built-in web server to control the DIGI-HD88B from any computer or smart phone.  And of course, an RS-232 interface is included for interfacing with most third-party control systems.  Please read this flyer for more details.

As with virtually all systems that are based upon twisted-pair cable technology, the Intelix Flex Matrix Distribution System will work with virtually any twisted-pair cables, including Cat-5e and Cat-6, but range and system bandwidth are directly related to both distance and cable quality, so to get the highest resolutions at the greatest distances, you will want high-quality, low-skew cables. Check the installation manual for more information. If you want the very best pre-terminated cables, please consider our VideoTwist cables.

Like most Intelix products, the DIGI-88B comes with a two year limited warranty from the manufacturer.
