DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort Products

"Extron has a long history of developing digital products, going back nearly a decade with the release of some of the industry's first DVI distribution and extension products," says Lee Dodson, Vice President of Marketing for Extron. "We are pleased to offer what has now become a complete, end-to-end product line that includes digital video interfaces, cables, switchers, and distribution products that deliver the exceptional performance, operational reliability, and integration-friendly features for which Extron is known."

The DCX 1600 modular digital matrix switcher provides HDCP-compliant DVI and HDMI switching and is compatible with signal resolutions up to 1920x1200 and 1080p/60. The compact, 3U enclosure accepts any combination of DVI or HDMI matrix boards. Available 4-port and 8-port input and output boards can be used separately or together to provide 16 I/O size combinations for full system customization from 4x4 to 16x16.

Extron is also offering two families of fixed-configuration matrix switchers. The DXP DVI Pro and DXP HDMI Series are HDCP compliant and available in four I/O sizes from 4x4 to 8x8. Both matrix switcher series as well as the DCX 1600 offer several Extron-exclusive features designed to optimize performance and reliability, including EDID Minder® for consistent, reliable switching between displays and connected sources, and automatic input equalization and automatic output reclocking to help ensure the integrity of the digital signal on both the input and output paths.
