Seamless Switch technology that provides video switching in real-time, a built
in scaler that handles different video resolutions and EDID Expert technology
for fast smooth switching between displays.
The VM7104 4-Port VGA Input Board offers an easy way to route 4 VGA
video and audio sources to 4 displays and speakers. In addition, the VM7104
can be mixed with any modular output boards on the VM1600 for optimum
flexibility.
The VE805R HDMI HDBaseT Lite Receiver with Scaler can be combined
with an ATEN HDMI HDBaseT transmitter or splitter to extend your HDMI
display up to 70 m from the source using a single Cat 6a cable (or up to 60 m
when using a single Cat 5e cable). With a built-in scaler, the VE805R supports
the scaling of different video resolutions. When combined with ATEN
HDBaseT output boards, it supports video wall functionality. In addition, the
VE805R is equipped with RS232 and IR signaling pass-through which allows
RS232 and IR channel control from the remote to local unit, to control the
HDMI source, or from the local to remote unit, to control the display device.
The VE805R is HDCP compliant.
Combining these devices, this solution can be conveniently customized,
allowing users to independently switch and route video and/or audio signals to
various monitors, displays, projectors and/or speakers simply by pressing front
panel pushbuttons. The VM1600’s built-in Scaler encodes video formats in
order to provide seamless, real-time switching while ensuring stable signal
transmission. In addition, the front panel LCD shows a quick view of active
port connections, and includes an option to select an EDID Mode that yields
the best resolution across different monitors.
The VM1600 is easily expandable and accommodates ATEN’s hot-swappable
I/O boards. Equipped with automatic signal conversion, it allows a
combination of digital video formats, thus making it ideal for large-scale A/V
applications.
Setup is fast and easy; install the modular I/O boards by sliding them into the
VM1600’s rear panel slots, then plug the device cables into the appropriate
ports on the I/O boards and your ready.
This solution can be connected to the network through the VM1600’s LAN
port, allowing the installation to take advantage of internal Cat 5 Ethernet
wiring built into most modern commercial buildings. Once initial network
setup has been accomplished at the local level, the VM1600 can be
conveniently managed remotely using any web browser. Furthermore, for
complete systems integration, the VM1600’s built-in RS-232 and RS-485/RS-
