    Atlona Introduces New Professional Line 4x1 and 4x2 High-Speed HDMI Switchers

    AT-HD4-V41 and AT-HD4-V42 Connect Four HDMI Sources to One or Two HDMI Displays, With Audio Return Channel and HDMI Ethernet Channel Pass-Through Support

    By Gary Reber

    Atlona Technologies®, a leading digital connectivity solutions provider, today announced that the company has introduced new 4x1 and 4x2 high-speed HDMI switchers to its newly branded Atlona Professional line of digital connectivity solutions. The perfect solutions for home theater and multimedia systems with limited display input options, the switchers provide a high-digital-performance connection between four HDMI sources and one (AT-HD4-V41) or two (AT-HD4-V42) HDMI video displays without signal loss.

    To simplify installations and increase system reliability by reducing necessary wiring, the AT-HD4-V41 features an audio return channel and an HDMI 100-Mbps Ethernet port for bidirectional HDMI Ethernet channel (HEC) pass-through. The AT-HD4-V42 offers two audio return channels and HDMI Ethernet ports for multiple displays. The high-speed switchers provide support for 36-bit Deep Color at 1080p/60 Hz, HDCP, and Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD master audio pass-through.

    "We are excited to introduce these new switchers for the Atlona Professional line. For home multimedia systems without enough display input options, the AT-HD4-V41 is the perfect solution, while the AT-HD4-V42 is ideal for
    watching media on multiple displays without the need to move devices — such as home theaters with two mirrored video outputs," said Mike Grubb, general manager of Atlona Professional. "And with features such as audio return channel and HEC pass-through, installers will save time in the field while providing an unmatched media experience for their customers."

    The Atlona Professional line allows integrators to create scalable, customizable solutions for customers in residential and commercial A/V applications. This line of products provides a full range of solutions that cover almost every conceivable issue contractors may face in any digital A/V system setup.

    The AT-HD4-V41 and AT-HD4-V42 are now available at MSRPs of $299.99 and $399.99, respectively.

    Reason #67 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Widescreen Review is by far the most in-depth and comprehensive publication in its genre. Readers of all levels of expertise can increase their knowledge and enhance their enjoyment of the Home Theatre experience. Widescreen Review is one of the few, if not the only publication, that actually affects manufacturer’s decisions in regards to their product lines. I believe one of the reasons DTS decoding is so common in consumer equipment is due to the efforts of Gary Reber and his associates. Additionally, the magazine has heralded the importance of a properly calibrated video monitor. Consumers who are so inclined now have the information needed in order for their equipment, from entry level to state-of-the-art, to be the best that it can be. Add to this the software reviews, articles on emerging technologies, and meticulous equipment reviews, and you have a magazine that sets the standard for others to emulate. This is why I read Widescreen Review.
