This Blustream SW42DA-V2 4-Way HDMI Switcher with Multi-Channel Dante Audio Breakout is a 4-Way HDMI switch that has been designed to breakout, convert, and downmix embedded Dolby Audio or DTS Audio within a HDMI switching environment.
The SW42DA-V2 will pass native video with the embedded multi-channel audio to compatible equipment on output 1, with a second HDMI output featuring optional video down-scaling from 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 or 4:2:0, video down to 1080p, with the native embedded audio, or down-mixed 2ch audio as required.
Audio capabilities include the selection and manipulation of formats across both multichannel and 2ch downmixed.
The Dante output allows for 9.1ch breakout and embedding into a Dante digital signal, and/or 7.1ch breakout with a separate 2ch down-mixed Dante output.
Optical S/PDIF breakout (2ch or 5.1ch as required), individual analogue multi-channel breakout, and 2ch downmixed balanced/unbalanced analogue audio can also be broken out as required directly from the unit.
The SW42DA-V2 provides an advanced, but cost effective solution for ensuring that 4K UHD video and multi-channel audio can be distributed around a Dante multi-room system where there are a mixture of 2ch and/or 7.1ch zones or 7.1.2ch / 5.1.4ch (9.1ch) audio, with multiple output resolution requirements.
Perfect for cinema and media room set up's where local content would be shared within a multi-zone distributed system where either multichannel or down-mixed audio is required.
This new SW42DA-V2 brings additional benefits over the original SW42DA:
- Increased internal memory to account for recent updates from Audinate for the DEP (Dante Embedded Platform), resulting in better performance for larger Dante ecosystems.
- New 4K HDMI chipsets resulting in fast source switching times.
