Four-input HDMI 2.1 switcher for 8K and 4K 120 Hz signals
The SW41AB-8K is an HDMI 2.1 switch that gathers four sources and sends them, one at a time, to a single output, keeping 8K at 60 Hz and 4K at 120 Hz signals intact.
It is meant for systems where current consoles, players and computers rely on HDMI 2.1 features such as ALLM and VRR, which are preserved. The source is chosen automatically, when the switch detects a new TMDS signal or the 5 V line of a freshly connected source, or by hand with the IR remote, the front buttons or an RS-232 command. Audio can be extracted to a stereo analogue output and an optical S/PDIF output, to feed a separate sound system. It complies with HDCP 2.3 and handles source EDID in an advanced way.
