CHAPTER 1 SWITCHER SYSTEM OVERVIEW
1.1 Introduction
The HX-2344Z Seamless HDBaseT Matrix switcher is a high performance HDMI routing
equipment combining with video and audio. It is used for input/output cross switching of
image signals. Through the extensible accessory devices with RJ-45 connector, it can
transmit images separately to each output equipment for an over long distance about 70
meter by applying HDBaseT zero compression technology. Thereby minimizing signal
attenuation and ensuring high definition, integrating high fidelity graphics and audio signal
output.
The HX-2344Z is used mainly in TV broadcasting projects, multi-media conference halls,
and large display projects, TV teaching and command control centers. It boasts features
of power interruption protection during power surge, LCD display and synchronous and
integrate audio/visual routing functions. HX-2344Z supports 4 HDMI Type A for input and
4 RJ-45 for output connectors. Beside it also supports a RS-232 communication port
enables convenient communication with remote control equipment to configure the
signals.
