KEY FEATURES

Int ro d uct ion

Absolute Acoustics® NDS UM is a family of HDMI/HDMI matrix switchers  capable of transmitting audio, video, and control signals 
from any source to any display. As an exclusive feature, UM models extracts the digital audio from each HDMI input to a pair of analog 
RCA connectors, enabling the direct connection with any audio distribution system.

With a range of exclusive technologies, UM matrix switchers o ers advanced features for distributing HDMI signals, such as native 
support for UHD/4K resolutions and high defnition audio formats, and compliance with the new HDCP 2.2 copy protection standard, 
making it perfect for deployment of multimedia distribution systems in residential or corporate environments. Additionally, all inputs 
and some output zones of UM mat rix switchers have HDMI audio de-embedding, extracting the digital audio contained in the HDMI 
signal into a pair of RCA connectors.

UMs can be controlled manually via front panel buttons or remotely, by sending IR or RS232 codes. When connected to an Ethernet 
network, it can also be controlled over Telnet protocol, or through its web interface - which also works as an easy way to perform all 
settings. And further expanding the range of features, UM44 can act as an automation hub, forwarding commands received on its 
control ports via HDMI-CEC to devices connected on each of its outputs.

 Compatible with the new ultra-high de nition sources 

and displays, sending signals with resolutions up to 
2160@30 with YCbCr 4:4:4, or 2160@60 with 4:2:0 color 
format;

 Fully licensed and compatible with HDCP 2.2, the 

latest content protection speci cation, enabling the 
transmission of ultra-high de nition signals directly 
from the source;

 Digital audio extraction from the all input and some 

output zones, enabling direct connections to 
multi-room or professional audio distribution systems;

 Control of connected displays through the 

HDMI-CEC protocol, saving control ports of the 
home automation controller;

 Capable of control connected display through the 

sending of commands in the HDMI-CEC protocol;

 Web interface for con guration and control of the 

device, with separated user pro les and optimized 
for use on mobile devices.
