Atlona 5x2 4K HDR HDMI Matrix Switcher

Product Description

4K HDR 5×2 HDMI Matrix Switcher

The Atlona AT-HDR-SW-52 is a 5×2 HDMI matrix switcher for high dynamic range (HDR) formats. Part of the comprehensive family of Atlona 4K HDR integration products, it features five HDMI inputs and matrixed or mirrored HDMI outputs. The HDR-SW-52 is HDCP 2.2 compliant and supports 4K/UHD video @ 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma sampling, as well as HDMI data rates up to 18 Gbps. It is ideal for the latest as well as emerging 4K/UHD and HDR sources and displays, and includes EDID management features, and automatic input switching. Additionally, 4K downscaling to 1080p @ 60, 30, or 24 Hz is available for the HDMI outputs when connected to an HD display. The HDR-SW-52 can de-embed audio from an HDMI input to S/PDIF or balanced analog audio outputs. This HDMI switcher can be controlled via Ethernet, RS-232, and IR.

The HDR-SW-52 is part of the HDR-SW Series that also includes the HDR-SW-51 five-input HDMI switcher and HDR-SW-52ED 5×2 HDMI matrix switcher with HDMI and HDBaseT™ outputs.

Reliable Auto-Switching

The HDR-SW-52 can automatically select an input source based on detection of the 5 volt hot plug detect (HPD) signal, as well as active video. This ensures reliable auto-switching operation for all video sources, including DVRs, DisplayPort / Mini DisplayPort adapters, and other devices that always maintain the HPD line at the 5 volt “high” state but may not be delivering active video.

Auto-switching is available when the HDMI outputs are mirrored.

Applications

• Conference rooms and meeting rooms – The HDR-SW-52 is compact and ideal for under-table mounting. It conveniently provides automatic switching for simplified user operation, especially when laptops are brought into the system.
• Presentation spaces where two displays are needed – This matrix switcher can feed separate content into dual, side-by-side presentation displays.
• Localized video source switching – This switcher can be used to feed into a larger, multi-zone AV distribution platform, such as the Atlona OmniStream™ AV over IP system.
