WyreStorm MX-0808-H2A-MK2
The MX-0808-H2A-MK2 is a welcome refresh to the powerful line of H2A pure HDMI switchers. The MK2 is familiar on the surface but has a host of improvements and added features. To start, the HDMI outputs now feature 4K > 1080p downscalers promoting easier integration of mixed resolution displays into a single system. The HDMI outputs also now support Audio Return Channel from smart TVs to bring audio from apps like Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, etc. to an external audio system. Analogue audio outputs have been updated to balanced connections to ensure there is no loss in fidelity or interference.
SCALERS
Each of the 8 outputs on the MK2 feature down scalers, allowing support for mixed resolution distribution of HDMI content to 4K and 1080p display simultaneously.
AUDIO DE-EMBED
Featuring balanced Analogue and a digital S/PDIF, easily de-embed audio from either the HDMI inputs or ARC to a secondary audio distribution system without the need for external adapters or converters.
ARC SUPPORT
All 8 HDMI outputs support Audio Return Channel from smart TVs apps like Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, etc.….The ARC audio can then be sent through either the digital S/PDIF or balanced Analogue outputs to an AVR or stereo amp.
2160P 4:4:4
