HDMI will continue to be the de-facto standard in home video
transmission 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.
"It is clear that more equipment such as Cable/Satellite Set Top
boxes, DVD players, HD DVD players, Personal video recorders,
video game stations, and computer video cards will adopt
HDMI/DVI. However, many early-generation HDTV monitors only had
1 or 2 HDMI input leaving the early adopter no way to easily add
HDMI enabled sources. Furthermore many Surround Sound Audio
Receivers do not include HDMI switching. Octava's HDMI switching
solution was designed to allow end users add HDMI sources and at
the same time upgrade their existing Surround Sound Audio
Receiver with HDMI switching capabilities. This allows the end
user to fully experience the benefits of HDMI."
Octava's latest HDMI switch solution include a 3x1 and 5x1 HDMI
switch. The 3x1 HDMI switch allows the user to connect up to 3
HDMI sources and share it with 1 HD monitor or projector. The
5x1 HDMI switch are for "power users" who intend to add in more
sources in the future. "By providing 3x1 and 5x1 HDMI solutions,
we ensure that the end user always has adequate number of ports
for future expansions."
The Octava HDMI switch has been meticulously engineered for
superior impedance matching, minimum skew and clean
transmission. All switches are HDCP compatible and are
transparent to the HDCP process ensuring compatibility.
Furthermore, Clear Eye technology has been employed to correct
and improve signal quality over HDMI cables. In addition, Octava
HDMI switch incorporate Smart Scan auto-detection, which
intelligently and automatically select the desired HDMI source
allowing for the ultimate user friendliness. Smart Scan
simplifies the user experience by minimizing dependence on
additional remote controls. A further benefit of Smart Scan is
that the HDMI switch may be placed behind the equipment cabinet
and be controlled without an additional IR extender.
All products can be connected to DVI-D also simply by using a
DVI-D to HDMI cable or adapter.
