1. Product Introduction
Thanks for choosing the PT-PMS-42S 4x2 multi-format seamless presentation matrix
switcher with one PT-HDBT-210-RX receiver! The matrix switcher simplifies meeting
room and presentation space system integration by providing three HDMI inputs, one
USB-C input, one HDMI output and one HDBaseT output with one HDMI loop output. It
also provides external one audio input to be embedded in the first HDMI input.
Moreover, it provides one MIX audio input and one MIC audio input for global audio.
The matrix switcher provides true 4K scaling up to 4K@60Hz@4:4:4. Both inputs and
outputs are capable of providing 4K@60Hz@4:4:4 signals. The HDBaseT output
provides an innovative solution allowing transmission of HDMI 2.0 signals over a
CATx cable while ensuring very high, original image quality. It is designed for use
with the PT-HDBT-210-RX receiver. The USB-C input is ideal for AV interfacing with
newer MacBook, Chromebook, and Windows PC, as well as smart phones and tablets.
The matrix switcher supports auto switching on HDMI, HDBaseT with HDMI loop
outputs based on TMDS activity signals sensing. It also allows users to control system
functionality via Web GUI, RS232, IR and CEC.
The matrix switcher is designed to be the central component of AV system. It is ideal
for applications where multiple signals with different resolutions must be optimized
for displays. It is also suitable for presentation spaces where two displays are
needed.
1.1 Features
4x2 HDMI 2.0 seamless presentation switcher with matrix outputs.
HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliant. The video resolution supports up to 4K@60Hz
