About the DTP CrossPoint Matrix Switchers
The DTP CrossPoint matrix switchers distribute HDCP-compliant HDMI and Extron
proprietary DTP video and audio signal types. A matrix switcher routes any input signal
to any combination of outputs. It can route multiple input and output configurations
simultaneously.
The fixed matrix size switchers support a total of eight inputs: six HDMI and two inputs from
Extron DTP transmitting devices. The matrix switchers provide four outputs: two HDMI and
two scaled DTP outputs.
The DTP CrossPoint Matrix Series consists of three 8-input by 4-output models,
differentiated by their audio and control capabilities:
