Introduction
The S2MBW-120 is a multi-format HDBase-t switcher in a 2 gang wall plate format. The S2MBW-120 has
one HDMI, one VGA with audio inputs, and a single HDBase-T output. The ability to switch between HDMI and
VGA make this a good fit as a small extender solution or as a headend to a larger matrix solution. It sup-
ports multiple switching modes to fit any need, and has a built-in audio embedder so that you can send your
analog stereo audio with your VGA signal across the HDBase-T link. The S2MBW-120 is able to be remotely
controlled thru RS232 commands and/or contact closure to provide for remote control needs. The unit also
supports Talley feedback for remote mounting and integration into control panels.
