SY, SY-APOLLO-42 - 4x2 HDMI Seamless switching Multi-Viewer Matrix.

Apollo 42 – 4x2 Seamless Matrix & Multi-Viewer with 4x HDMI 18G inputs and 2x HDMI 2.0 outputs. Each output can perform a variety of functions independently, with wide range Scaling up to 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 and is capable of displaying in Single, Dual, Triple, Quad Multi-View or various PIP modes. Dynamic Audio selection allows for choice between any of the HDMI inputs' audio, regardless of the chosen video signal. De-embeded audio via optical Toslink or L+R analogue output is available independently on both channels. Apollo 42 provides a convenient solution for easily managing multiple sources across 2 displays and is suitable for collaboration, educational environments, seamless presentation, control centres and gaming.

Seamless 4x2 Matrix – Seamlessly switch between 4x HDMI 2.0 inputs, to 2 x HDMI 2.0 outputs. Capable of 4K60Hz 4:4:4 18G.

2 Independent Outputs – Each of the 2 HDMI outputs may be independently configured including Multi-view, PiP, Scaling and Auto-Switching.

Auto or Manual Switching – When set to Single mode, the auto-switch feature will automatically select the newly connected source. When currently selected source is lost, the next available active input will be automatically selected. Manual switching can be carried out from the front panel, IR or RS232.

Multi-View mode – Any of the 4 available inputs can be independently selected per display to be viewed in either Single, Dual, Triple or Quad view, with various options of window size.

PiP – Each output can be independently configured to its own custom Picture In Picture mode, with various options of window sizing and position.

Wide Range Scaling – Each output has its own full Up/Down Scaler with complete control over both resolution and refresh rate, guaranteeing optimal image quality based on the displays' capabilities. 

Audio Control –  Any available audio inputs can be paired with the video at any time, with mute function available. Audio can also be de-embedded via Toslink or Analogue L/R RCA jacks.

VKA – The Video Keep Alive function can maintain a video output when there is no signal. When there is no active input signal, the display can be configured to show a blue or black image, ensuring that the screens remain active until a new signal is detected. 

IT Content Setting – The IT Content (ITC) setting tells the display to use its own video quality processing algorithms, instead of the Intel graphics driver when movies are played in full-screen mode to ensure the best video quality.

HDCP Control – Support and management of HDCP ensures compatibility. Convert from HDCP 2.2 down to HDCP 1.4 or simply put the unit into cascade mode.
