Product Description

8x8 4K HDR HDCP 2.2 Matrix Switcher with Analog & Digital Audio Routing

VS−88H2A is a high−quality, 8x8 matrix switcher for 4K@60Hz (4:4:4), HDR, HDMI signals and analog & digital audio routing. It reclocks and equalizes the signals and can route any one of eight HDMI, HDCP−compliant sources (selectable) to any or all outputs simultaneously. VS−88H2A offers unmatched audio flexibility where any embedded digital or analog audio input can be routed to any embedded digital or analog audio output in addition to eight ARC sources to produce an equivalent 24x24 audio matrix.

• High–Performance AV Matrix — Switches 8 4K@60Hz (4:4:4), HDR, HDMI, HDCP, DVI–compliant signals to 8 4K@60Hz (4:4:4), HDR, HDMI, HDCP, DVI–compliant outputs at up to 18G data rate. Signals are HDCP 2.2/1.4 compliant. Featuring Kramer re–Klocking™ and Equalization Technology that rebuilds the digital signal to travel longer distances. Note: For optimum range and performance, use recommended Kramer cables.
• HDMI Support — Deep Color, 3D, ARC, up to 7.1 uncompressed audio channels as specified in HDMI 2.0.
• Independent Audio Routing — Any embedded digital or analog audio input can be routed to any embedded digital or analog audio output in addition to eight ARC sources to produce an equivalent 24x24 audio matrix (8 embedded digital inputs + 8 analog inputs + 8 ARC inputs and 8 digital outputs + 8 analog outputs + 8 ARC outputs).
• Easy Step–In Collaboration Function — When used with a Kramer Step–In enabled switcher, just plug in your device and press the Step–In button. Your device becomes the active signal on the main display.
