8X8 component video matrix switcher DC level restoration: The 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 8X8 component video matrix switcher Video distribution: The 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 8X8 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.

Your video is only as good as the component video switcher that connects it. Why not buy this 8X8 component video matrix switcher today?

Q/A

Q: What is ZeroKey control?
A: There is no remote control that comes with the Colorado as the remote control interface can use ZeroKey infrared code cloning to map any remote control key to each of the inputs and outputs. ZeroKey technology is compatible with virtually all remote controls, and does not interfere with the normal operation of the remote. ZeroKey programming is stored in flash memory, and you will not need to reprogram even if you lose power. If you buy a new remote in the future, don't worry, the Colorado can be reprogrammed as much as you like.

If you want to control it from the front panel and don't want to control it via the optional iPad app and need a remote control see 8x8 Component Matrix Switch w/Audio.

FAQ

Here is how to program user provided remote controls with ZeroKey Technology: This Component Matrix Switcher uses ZeroKey Technology if you want to use it with a remote control (not supplied). It can be controlled manually by the front panel or by any remote control given it has enough buttons. The remote control interface uses ZeroKey infrared code cloning to map any remote control key to each one of the four video & audio inputs.

The remote control interface uses ZeroKey infrared code cloning to map any remote control key to each one of the video & audio inputs. Here are the steps to program the matrix for your remote control.
  1. Press the toggle button to select the input/output pair you would like to train
  2. Hold the toggle button for 3 seconds and release
  3. The LED indicator for the selected channel will now flash continuously, this means it is ready to be programmed
  4. Aim your remote control at the matrix switch and press the key you would like to use to select this input
  5. The LED indicator will stop flashing, this means the code has been stored.
  6. Repeat for the other input/output pairs (up to 16 total).
