INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of one of the most innovative
Component/Digital/Audio matrix switching products on the market today.
The SB-5644 4x4 Component Video + Digital/Analog Audio matrix
switcher with RS-232 is designed to work as a switcher for multiple Audio/
Video sources and displays. Capable of switching Component Video,
SPDIF and Stereo Audio signals between (4) sources and (4) displays
with compatible inputs. A maximum bandwidth of 325MHz will support
a sharp and highly dened video in multiple resolutions of up to 1080p.
Because it is a matrix switcher, it allows any input to be routed to any
output; or the same input to be routed to all outputs or any combination.
It completely eliminates the need to constantly move around video input
and output cables. RS-232 control allows the switcher to be controlled
by a computerized system such as HTPC and in this case eliminates the
need for an infrared remote control. The 4x4 matrix switcher works with all
video equipment that has proper connections: such as cable and satellite
receivers, computers, video scalers, DVD players, VCRs and so on.
