The new Iogear 4-Port Automatic HDMI Switch allows consumers to simultaneously control and connect up to four High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) devices to television sets. Iogear’s patented HDAS (High-Definition Automatic Switch) technology instantly locks and transfers the active audio and video content to the connected HD display. Users can now maintain a single Universal Remote to control a home entertainment center by simply powering on the desired device, and alternate between sources from the comfort of their couches. A single HDMI cable connects an HDTV with the Switch, which links up to four devices, such as Apple TV, DVD players, video game consoles and media servers. This significantly reduces the amount of wires plugged directly into a television set, making it an ideal solution for modern wall-mount set-ups and eliminating manual switching of A/V inputs.
The Iogear 4-Port Automatic HDMI Switch is High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) compliant and supports 1080p resolution. LEDs on the front panel display the HDMI device that is currently in use. It is priced at $189.95 (MSRP) .
