Review on 🔀 ZPTEK 4K HDMI Matrix Switch 4x2 with Optical and LR Audio Output, IR Remote Controller - Supports 4K@60Hz 3D, 18.5Gbps x 3 Data Rate, HDMI 2.0b, HDCP 2.2, MH42-C1 by Brian Forbis

In a situation where you need a switcher but don't know how to use a professional switcher, you don't have a full need for it based on your specific needs and/or you can just get it yourself not afford one. This is an interesting solution instead. We usually use something like ImagePRO for video switching. In this particular situation, however, we just wanted two TVs in one of the test areas to be able to receive data from multiple sources without having to go through a complicated setup (especially since it would only need to be switched once). a time). blue moon depending on the element we are comparing at any given time). Sign in on this device. It requires some basic understanding, but is pretty user-friendly for the most part. You just need a basic understanding of signal flow to map your setup in your head and know how to play with DIP switches. DIP switches help you configure the signal that needs to be routed through the switch. The idea is to make sure all your I/O devices are using the same formats (e.g. 1080p vs. 4K or Dolby vs. Stereo etc.) when it comes to what you are displaying on both of your TVs/monitors require. In our case, the two televisions switch between different reference situations. Outputs from two different docks, a console test bench, or an area where a lot of PC/Mac magic doesn't work (mostly PC. Sorry Apple). understand. It's so incredibly simple and seems to work well. This is an IR remote control and therefore requires line of sight to operate. Also, it's very small, which makes it easy to place. It doesn't take up any space at all compared to some other solutions we've used. The design is simple and primarily focused on functionality. In public places, you'll want to hide this somewhere because it's not easy on the eye, but that's not why you buy it. It's just an option for those who need something that gets the job done and ends there. It's incredibly useful that it supports 4K and all the way up to Dolby Atmos via one or both ports (only output A appears to support Dolby Atmos). We currently only use it for 4K and Stereo (2.0) as it covers all the needs we could currently have in this setup. **If you found our review helpful, please rate it helpful below so we know.
