1. Introduction 

1.1.  Introduction to MDV88A 

MDV series Matrix switcher is a high-performance professional computer and audio 
signal switcher that can be used for cross switching of multi computer and audio signal. 
Independent DVI component and balance/unbalance I/O terminals make each 
component signal transmit and switch separately; this design can reduce attenuation 
of signal transmission to minimum and output the image and audio signal in 
high-fidelity quality. 

DVI series switcher mostly apply in broadcasting TV engineering, multi-media meeting 
room, big screen display engineering, television education, command control center or 
other fields. It supports A/V timing or separating switching function. With RS232 
interface, it can be worked with PC, remote control system and any other far-end 
control system devices.
