Typical Applications
The typical application of the UMX-HDMI-140 switcher:
▪Small meeting rooms
▪Huddle rooms
▪Home cinema
The following drawings introduce three simple examples how you can apply the device in different
environments.
Huddle Room with Speakers
The Concept
The huddle room has an HD Display and dedicated audio sink devices. The UMX-HDMI-140 switcher is
assembled under the desk in an Under-desk Double Mounting Kit. The cables for the input sources are guided
from two different sources. You can see all accepted interfaces of the device in the Electrical Connections
section.
De-embedder de-embeds the audio signal and transmits it to the Active speakers. The De-embedder does not
need local powering because it can be supplied via the HDMI cable by the source and the cable extensions
can be up to 20 meters thanks to the built-in Pixel Accurate Reclocking
chapter.
The HD Display can be also controlled via the UMX-HDMI-140 by RS-232 interface.
