 INTRODUCTION

 PACKAGE CONTENTS:

Atlona Technologies’ AT-PROHD48M-SR is a 4x8 HDMI Matrix Switcher over Twisted Pair designed to work as 

a switcher for multiple Audio/Video sources and displays. The Atlona unit is capable of switching HDMI signals 

between four sources (such as: Blue-Ray player, HD DVD player, satellite receiver, game system, etc.) and 

eight displays. Because it is a matrix switch, any or all of the 4 inputs can simultaneously be switched to any or 

all of the outputs. Along with supporting HDMI 1.3 and HDCP Compliance, switcher will support high definition 

video in multiple resolutions of up to 1080p or 1920x1200. Five switching modes are available including front 

panel buttons, local IR, IR call back from remote locations, RS485 and TCP/IP.  The PROHD48 is capable of 

routing IR signal from remote locations to the main location where the switcher is. The IR emitters/receivers 

can control the switch as well as sources next to it. 
The Atlona PROHD48M-SR has 8 dual* outputs.  

*Dual Output: HDMI + Dual Twisted Pair output where both are active at the same time. Each output could be 

connected to either 2 displays or AVR and a Display; however the signal from both outputs will be identical.
