SerieS FeAtureS

• Inputs: Two, four, six, eight, and twelve input models with 15-pin HD connectors;

3.5 mm stereo mini jacks for audio

• Output: 15-pin HD connector for video; captive screw connector for audio

• 350 MHz (-3 dB) RGB video bandwidth

• Compatible with VGA-QXGA and HDTV component video signals

• Auto-input switching — Automatically switches to the highest-numbered input with an active video signal.

• Input signal sensing — Automatically detects which inputs have an active signal and reports that information through the RS-232 port for confirmation of active inputs on third party control systems.

• Switches balanced and unbalanced stereo audio

• Active PC audio buffering — Converts unbalanced PC audio to balanced, line level signals, eliminating noise over long cable runs.

• Compatible with Extron VSW I AAP — The optional VSW I AAP provides remote input connection and selection, which is useful in multiple-participant presentation environments.

• Multiple control options — Switcher operations can be controlled through the front panel, RS-232, or contact closure.

• IR control — The SW VGA Series switchers can be conveniently controlled via IR remote control with the optional Extron IR 102 kit.

• Internal universal power supply — The 100-240VAC, 50/60 Hz, international power supply provides worldwide power compatibility.

deScriPtion

The SW VGA Series are VGA switchers with two, four, six, eight, or twelve inputs. They are designed for applications where multiple high resolution computer video or HDTV component video signals must be switched to one or two displays. The SW VGA Series switchers are ideal for small to mid-sized applications where high resolution switching is needed. There are several key features common to all models in this series which benefit integrators and endusers alike.

All models feature input signal sensing, which automatically detects which inputs have an active signal and reports that information through the RS-232 port for confirmation of active inputs on third party control systems. This provides quick confirmation of active inputs on any thirdparty control system. Another feature common to all models is Auto-input switching, which automatically switches to the highest-numbered input with an active video signal. All switchers in this series can also be controlled via their front panel, RS-232, and contact closure remote control, and via the optional Extron IR 102 handheld remote control. All of the SW VGA models are housed in 1U, rack-mountable metal enclosures for easy integration into new or existing

A/V environments.

All SW VGA Series switchers feature active PC audio buffering, which converts unbalanced

PC audio to balanced, line level signals, eliminating noise over long cable runs. The switchers accept PC audio input on 3.5 mm mini stereo jacks for fast, easy connection with preterminated Extron VGA and audio cables. Balanced or unbalanced audio is output on captive screw connectors.

The SW8 VGA and SW12 VGA Series feature dual buffered video and audio outputs which simultaneously output program video and audio on two parallel outputs. This eliminates the additional cost of a VGA and audio distribution amplifier for dual-display applications.
