Overview:
4-Way HDMI Switcher With Multi-Channel Dante Audio Breakout
The Blustream SW42DA is a 4-Way HDMI switch that has been designed to convert and downmix embedded Dolby Audio or DTS Audio within a HDMI switching environment, HDMI audio capabilities include the selection and manipulation of formats across both multichannel and 2ch downmixed Dante digital signal, optical, multi-channel and 2ch downmixed balanced/unbalanced analogue audio and HDMI outputs.
The SW42DA will pass native video and multi-channel audio to compatible equipment, with a second HDMI output featuring selectable video down-conversion of 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 video down to 1080p, with embedded native or down-mixed 2ch audio as required.
The SW42DA provides an advanced, but cost effective solution for ensuring that 4K UHD video and multi-channel audio can be distributed around a Dante multi-room system where there are a mixture of 2ch and/or 7.1ch zones or 7.1.2/5.1.4 (9.1ch) audio, with multiple output resolution requirements.
