WolfPack 36×36 Modular 4K 60Hz HDMI Matrix Switch over CAT6
Route any of 36 HDMI sources to any of 36 displays in uncompressed 4K at 60Hz — with hot-swappable modular cards, dual redundant power, and 18 control methods.
What Is a 4K 60Hz HDMI Matrix Switch?
An HDMI matrix switch is a device that allows any video source — such as a cable box, media server, gaming console, or security camera — to be routed to any display, including TVs, projectors, and video walls. Unlike a simple splitter (one source to many screens) or a selector switch (one source to one screen), a matrix switch gives you full any-to-any routing: source 1 can go to display 5, source 12 can go to displays 2, 7, and 18 simultaneously, and so on.
The 4K 60Hz specification means the switch handles the highest-quality consumer and professional video standard available today: 3840×2160 pixels at 60 frames per second with full 4:4:4 chroma sampling — four times the resolution of 1080p HD with no color compression. This is the standard required for HDR content, high-frame-rate gaming, and professional broadcast monitoring.
Product Overview
HDTV Supply's WolfPack 4K 60Hz 36×36 Modular HDMI Matrix Switcher Chassis is an enterprise-class, integrated HDMI video and audio routing solution engineered for demanding, large-scale AV environments. The 36×36 chassis backplane supports up to nine (9) slide-in input cards and nine (9) slide-in output cards, each card providing four ports — for a maximum of 36 inputs and 36 outputs. Any input can be routed to any output, including all outputs simultaneously, with no signal degradation.
The system is 4K@60Hz compliant and supports HDCP 2.3, the latest content protection standard required for streaming 4K HDR content from Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime Video. Advanced EDID management ensures seamless plug-and-play compatibility between all connected sources and displays, eliminating the "no signal" handshake failures common in lesser systems.
Control is available through 18 distinct methods, including a web-based GUI, native iOS and Android apps, front-panel buttons, dual RS-232 serial ports, and dual LAN ports for redundant network control. Optional drivers are available for Crestron, RTI, Elan, and two-way Control4 integration. Each card is hot-swappable, and the chassis features dual redundant power supplies for mission-critical reliability.
HDTV Supply, Inc. is an HDBaseT.org Approved Adopter of HDBaseT™ Products, ensuring full compliance with the HDBaseT standard for long-distance HDMI signal transmission over standard CAT6 cable.
