The 3x4 HDMI Distribution Amplifier allow users to deliver Full 1080P HD video and audio streams to 4 HD displays simultaneously via HDMI. The 3x4 HDMI distribution amp is designed for home theaters, and public HD display kiosks that require the highest picture quality to be shown on 4 or more HD displays.

The Pro HD series 3x4 HDMI Distribution Amplifier distributes Full 1080P video streams to 4 HDTV’s simultaneously. The 3x4 HDMI distribution amps is fully scaleable and can distribute HDMI to more than 4 HD displays by cascading multiple units. Integrated 3x1 HDMI switching allow up to 3 separate HD sources to be selected. RS-232 serial port is provided for integration with 3rd party control systems.

In addition, a Digital Toslink Audio output is provided. The Digital Toslink Audio Output “couples” audio data from the HDMI data stream. The 3x4 Distribution Amplifier processes the HDMI data and outputs the audio via Toslink Audio while leaving the HDMI signals ( both audio and video) available to both HDMI outputs. The advantage is that users can easily integrate the 3x4 HDMI Distribution Amplifiers with pre-existing Surround Sound Audio Equipment that has no HDMI audio capability.

HDMI is the latest standard for distributing High Definition Digital Video and Audio in high def displays for 2 reasons: 1) uncompressed digital format ensures the best picture quality and 2) HDMI allows content providers to ensure that their intellectual property is protected through HDCP.
