Description

HPC’s 4x1 HDMI switch maintains high definition video in resolutions up to 1080p and digital audio from any of four sources. Four inputs connects four high definition video sources, such as DVD player, set top box, PS3 and DVD recorder. The output sends the high definition audio/video signals to a single HDMI display. You switching source channel by the IR remote.

Fully HDCP compliant

HDCP (high bandwidth digital content protection) is a standard encoded into the video signal to prevent it from being copy. A simple answer is that an HDCP session will result in the exchange of keys between the source and display device. The source device will query the display to make sure that the equipment is HDCP compliant before video is shown. Non-HDCP devices such as PC's and older model DVI products will work with any DVI compliant display, but the HDCP compliant boxes will show an image only on HDCP compliant display.

Nearly all consumer video equipment with DVI/HDMI connectors are HDCP compliant including DVD players available on the market today. You can continue to use the component output of these devices without worry of HDCP, but expect the analog connections to slowly disappear from future products.

If a source device is HDCP coded and is connected to a HDMI display or projector without the correct HDCP decoding process, the picture is appear "sparkle" or in some cases, down-scaling to lower (480P) resolutions of the images. In order to see HDTV with HDCP compliance, both the source, the display and any device in between must be have HDMI connections that can proceed HDCP decoding.

How does it work

Easily connect your HDMI display to the switch’s display output. Then connect two HDMI sources to the switch’s inputs using the HDMI cables. When the sources, the switch and the display are all powered on and connected, you easily choice which one source you want to view.
