The Video Storm TMDS61 6 to 1 HDMI and DVI switcher is the most affordable AND most compatible digital video switch available today.  At the heart of this product is a cutting edge active TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signaling) switch instead of the typical DVI or HDMI decoder & encoder.

Note: This unit can be used as a 6X1 HDMI switcher with HDMI audio over the DVI connection together with separate digital audio switching if you don't requite CEC checking on the DVI line. Most applications don't need it. Again, the DVI signal will carry the audio signal giving you a 6X1 auto-sensing HDMI switcher + digital audio for <$175.

The active amplifiers in the TMDS61 actually improve the signal quality reducing the jitter and restoring the full amplitude swing. The output of the TMDS61 after a 15 foot cable is much cleaner. The TMDS61 is even capable of receiving and retransmitting the signal from a 30 foot cable.

Ideal for the Xbox's & Playstation 3 with HDMI outputs: The TMDS61 is one of the few switches on the market that is compatible with ALL the features in HDMI 1.3. Most 1.3 compliant switches support only the mandatory features. The TMDS61 will pass ALL the features, including the Deep Color enhanced video delivered by the Xbox360's and the Playstation PS3! Don't let your switch be the limiting factor in your home theater.

This new technology enables the DVI and HDMI switcher to switch and amplify the signals only at the electrical level, while leaving the protocol and encryption levels completely unchanged!  The result is a lower cost product which is fully compatible with all current AND future forms of DVI and HDMI.

The HDMI switcher will not only support a fast 150 MHz 1080p signal but of course will support todays resolutions of 480i / 480p / 720p and 1080i.

A further benefit is you never need to worry about future HDCP encryption problems or incompatibilities as this switch does not modify the source to display interaction in any way.

We recommend you also buy our above 1080p tested HDMI cable and/or our 1080p tested DVI cable so you can carry the 150 MHz 1080p signal throughout your system with this 1080p rated DVI and HDMI switcher.

The Video Storm TMDS61 6 to 1 HDMI and DVI Switcher can support the following typical applications:

  • Switches 3 HDMI & 3 DVI inputs to 1 display or receiver
  • Switches 6 HDMI inputs to 1 display (with 3 HDMI to DVI cables)
  • Switches 6 DVI inputs to 1 display (with 3 DVI to HDMI cables)
  • Switches 6 digital audio inputs (4 optical, 2 coax) to 1 set of transcoded digital audio outputs (coax and optical)
NOTE: Since DVI is a video only signal the

This unit delivers ultra clean noise performance and has selectable output high frequency amplification for driving long cables.

The Video Storm TMDS61 6 to 1 HDMI and DVI switcher is also the easiest switch on the market to setup and use.  Their proprietary ZeroKey technology allows switching to be performed by any key on any remote you own. No need for separate remotes or remote programming. The remote control interface uses ZeroKey infrared code cloning to map any remote control key to each one of the four video & audio inputs on any unused device on a remote you own.

This HDMI switcher is HDCP Compliant. HDCP (high bandwidth digital content protection) is a standard encoded into the video signal to prevent it from being pirated. If a source device is HDCP coded and is connected to a HDMI display or projector without the proper HDCP decoding mechanism, the picture is relegated to �snow� or in some cases, very low (480P) resolutions of the images.

In order to see HDTV with HDCP compliance, both the source, the display and any device in between must be equipped with HDMI connections that can pass HDCP, such as this HDMI switch.

CAUTION: Separate stereo right and left audio is not supported in this HDMI / DVI switcher but only through the DVI / HDMI connection..

Your video is only as good as switcher that connects it. Why not buy this Video Storm TMDS61 6 to 1 HDMI and DVI Switcher today?
