Lindy 8x8 HDMI 18G Matrix with Video Wall Scaling

The Lindy 8x8 HDMI 18G Matrix with Video Wall Scaling is the professional solution for distributing content from several source devices to many HDMI displays, or for creating eye-catching video wall setups.

Supporting resolutions up to 4K@60Hz, content can be shown in excellent clarity, great for ensuring a high-quality video experience in sports bars, retail stores or multiple consecutive locations in larger installations. Resolutions can easily be scaled and controlled by the user to ensure the optimum, or consistent, resolution is always displayed.

As well as providing a professional 8x8 matrix switching function, this device can create customisable singular or dual video wall displays in a variety of layouts. This provides the user with a range of flexible display options for their installation and allows the device to be used in a range of specialised environments; including transport hubs, points of sale and hospitality. Analogue audio ports also allow for 2-channel audio extraction, to add immersive stereo audio to the content on screen.

The matrix also provides instant seamless switching between source devices and displays, a crucial feature for use in real time operation centre scenarios such as traffic monitoring, stock market floors or security setups. Controlled via independent IR as well as LAN and push button switching, this matrix ensures minimum effort is required of the user when creating their installation, while RS-232 control also allows for integration into larger control systems.

Professional EDID management ensures maximum compatibility with both the source devices and displays.
