This HDMI switch enables alternate playback from 2 systems that have an HDMI output (e.g. DVD player or SAT receiver) to an LCD, plasma screen or projector that only has one HDMI input. Switching is automatic when a picture signal is received, or manual via the switch at the front of the system. Cutting-edge electronics ensure full HDCP compatibility and a maximum resolution of up to 1080p. An integrated repeater function and gold plated female connector mean that when very long cables are employed it is still extremely safe to use.
