RS-232 control with a PC or your existing home theater controller
Each output is individually switchable. You can configure the CMX86 such that video and audio switch together (normal mode), or video and audio can be controlled separately (advanced mode).
Video Storm CRM86 8X6 component video matrix switcher DC level restoration: The Video Storm CRM86 component video matrix switcher contains an active DC level restoration circuit. The circuit will restore the DC levels on the output video to the proper specification levels regardless of what is present on the input.
The Video Storm CMX86 8X6 component video matrix switcher Video distribution: The Video Storm CMX86 component video matrix switcher is the ideal amplifier for driving long video cables in your home. Many vendors claim their products can do this, but very few can accomplish this without distortion of the video. The most important amplifier design factors in driving long cables are source impedance matching, output connector quality, amplifier bandwidth, and amplifier current drive and slew rate. The amplifier uses the best components for all these, resulting in the best signal distribution you can get. If you are interested in video distribution, please see our information page for more tips on optimizing your network for zero distortion.
The Video Storm CMX86 8X6 component video matrix switcher ZeroKey technology: The matrix switcher can be controlled manually by toggle button, by remote control, or RS-232. The remote control interface uses ZeroKey infrared code cloning to map any remote control key to each of the inputs & outputs. ZeroKey technology is compatible with virtually all remote controls, and does not interfere with the normal operation of the remote.
