Intelix DIGI-HDMI-8X8 High-Definition Twisted Pair Matrix

Why settle for mediocrity? The Intelix DIGI-HDMI-8X8 combines a professional-grade HDMI matrix with Intelix's industry-leading extenders. Each system provides eight HDMI inputs, eight HDMI outputs, and eight twisted pair outputs. Plus, a built-in touch screen delivers front panel source selection and matrix routing with ease. Third-party control systems integrate seamlessly via RS232, Ethernet or IR.

In addition, the DIGI-HDMI-8X8 features eight pass-through IR channels which distribute remote IR commands from in-room controllers, through compatible Intelix twisted pair extenders, up to 150 feet over twisted pair cable, and out of the matrix, allowing complete control of remote sources from the destination. The Intelix DIGI-HDMI-8X8 is the ultimate solution for whole house audio/video distribution.

DIGI-HDMI-8X8 Feature Focus
HDMI 1.3 compliant. Forget HDMI handshake issues, loss of audio, and video flickers. The DIGI-HDMI-8X8 features an HDMI 1.3b chipset, providing the most stable and uniform platform for HDMI sources and destinations. Plus, the matrix supports Deep Color, lipsync correction, and lossless digital audio.
Built-in twisted pair extenders. The DIGI-HDMI-8X8 features HDMI and twisted pair extender outputs. If the destinations are close, use the HDMI outputs. If the destinations are far away, use the twisted pair outputs and a compatible Intelix receiver. In addition, the HDMI and twisted pair outputs are paralleled, allowing simultaneous use per channel.
Smart negotiation. The DIGI-HDMI-8X8's on-board CPU automatically negotiates outputs with various resolutions, allowing multiple sized monitors from different manufacturers to be used simultaneously.
Enhanced control. No matter what the application, the DIGI-HDMI-8X8 has you covered. The matrix features a front panel touch screen, Ethernet control, IR control, and RS232 control. In addition, the matrix ships with a wireless remote control.
Shelf-top or rack-mountable. The DIGI-HDMI-8X8 includes bottom panel mounting feet for shelf-top applications and 19" rack ears for permanent rack installations.
IR pass-through. Tired of third-party IR switchers and patch panels? When used in conjunction with an Intelix DIGI-HDMI-IR-R receiver, the DIGI-HDMI-8X8 matrix distributes remote IR commands over twisted pair cable, through the matrix, and out to local sources. This means the DIGI-HDMI-8X8 transmits IR signals from your remote destination back to the rack, switches them inside the matrix, and distributes them to your cable boxes, DVD player, or other local source device.
