The Extron 

SW6 YUV A

is a six input, one output HDTV/component video and

digital audio switcher for DVD and HDTV signal switching.  With 350 MHz 
(-3dB) video bandwidth, the SW6 YUV A is also compatible with RGBS, RGsB,
RsGsBs, and RGBS (SCART) video signals. 

The SW6 YUV A is user-configurable for manual or autoswitching modes.
Autoswitching allows any input to be selected automatically when the switcher
detects a source. For example, a number of wall plate receptacles can be
installed around a room, each routed to a different input of a switcher. As soon
as an active source is connected to the wall plate, the switcher automatically
selects that input. The autoswitch function can be enabled or disabled via a
toggle switch on the back panel.

The SW6 YUV A can be controlled via front panel buttons or through a 9-pin
contact closure remote control port. The 9-pin female D connector enables 
RS-232 control, as well as compatibility with the optional Extron KP 6 Keypad
Remote Control. 

■  

Inputs –

Six inputs for HDTV/component video and digital audio on BNC

connectors.

■  

Outputs –

Outputs on BNC connectors.

■ 

Autoswitching –

Allows any input to be selected automatically when the

switcher detects a source.

■  

RS-232 control –

A rear panel, RS-232 control port provides connection of

the SW 6 YUV A switcher to a third party control system. Extron’s Simple
Instruction Set (SIS

) allows for quick and easy programming. 

■  

Contact Closure Control – 

The rear panel 9-pin RS-232 connector also

supports contact closure control and can be used with an optional KP 6
Keypad Remote Control.

■  

Rack-mountable – 

Full rack, 1U high width metal enclosures that can be

mounted onto a rack without any additional hardware.

■  

Internal international power supply –

The 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz,

autoswitchable, internal power supply provides worldwide power
compatibility.
