HDTV Supply's WolfPack™ 8x8 Component Matrix Switch is a preconfigured integrated Component video Component matrix Switcher. The 18x18 chassis back plane allows Component technologies to be converted and switched eliminating external converters and it allows any input to be routed to any output, or the same input to be routed to all outputs, or any combination. The core of the 8x8 Component Matrix Switcher consists of an 18x18 Modular Matrix chassis and its highly configurable backplane that supports 18 - Component input cards and 18 - Component output cards. This 8x8 Component Matrix Switch supports both video and audio via its 3.5mm connectors on the In & Out cards.

This component matrix switcher can be used to completely replace Knox, and other manufacturer component matrix switchers, for existing installations where you've already got component cabling ran to your TVs and cannot economically replace the existing cables. You can control the 8x8 Component Matrix Switcher via Front Buttons or optional 7" Touch Screen, WEB GUI control, or the Dual RS-232 serial port. The matrix does have IR and a remote control and can be controlled with its iOS and Android app.

The heart of the component matrix is the WolfPack chassis backplane which allows customization of the configuration for input & output cards to match every need of the system & application. The matrix supports hot plugs & you can change the cards while the equipment is working. By having 1-port slide in cards the matrix is exceptionally reliable as in the unlikely even there is a loss of signal you just replace the card with a spare you have purchased or order another from us. The complete matrix does not have to be sent to us for repair.

HDTV Supply has developed the 1080p Universal Video Card used with this 8x8 Component Matrix Switch to not only solve various signals inputs but also many unique features like 3.5mm audio embeds on the input card and de-embeds on the output cards. It uses a DVI-I port so with the different adapters (Component-DVI, VGA-DVI, CVBS/YPBPR-DVI) you can have the Component, VGA, YPBPR/CVBS sources to input or with DVI you can use the DVI cable directly.
