Extron launches the HDMI DA2-- a 1-input, 2-output distribution amplifier for HDMI video and embedded multi-channel digital audio supporting HDMI (at 6.75 Gbps), Deep Colour (up to 12-bit), 3D, Lip Sync and HD lossless audio formats.
It is HDCP-compliant and supports all HDTV rates (including 1080p/60) and PC resolutions up to 1920x1200.
The HDMI DS2 also carries 2 Extron-exclusive technologies-- EDID Minder (maintains continuous EDID communication between connected devices) and Key Minder (authenticates and maintains continuous HDCP encryption between input and output devices).
Other features include automatic input cable equalization (restores and reshapes incoming HDMI signals, reducing the need for additional signal conditioning equipment by compensating for weak source signals or signal loss from a long input cable), automatic bit depth management, selectable output muting and indicators for monitoring and troubleshooting.
