Anaheim, California (December 18, 2019) - Extron is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the XTP II CP 4i HD DMA 4K PLUS, an XTP input board that provides four HDMI inputs with multi-channel audio downmixing and stereo audio connectivity. It is HDCP 2.2 compliant and accommodates data rates up to 18 Gbps for support of video resolutions up to 4K/60 at 4:4:4 color sampling. Multichannel audio signals are maintained for HDMI switching and downmixed to two-channel PCM audio for independent routing within the system. Also, stereo audio can be embedded into the XTP signal stream for extension alongside video signals. The input board is fully compatible with all XTP matrix switcher models, with incoming signals being switched to an XTP output board for local or remote signal routing. These features and capabilities make the XTP II CP 4i HD DMA 4K PLUS input board the ideal solution for supporting multi-channel audio downmixing, 4K video, and flexible audio distribution within XTP Systems.

“The XTP II CP 4i HD DMA 4K PLUS brings multi-channel audio downmixing to our line of uncompressed, 4K/60 HDMI boards for XTP Systems,” says Casey Hall, Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Marketing at Extron. “These enhanced audio capabilities give design consultants and integrators even more options for addressing system requirements without sacrificing quality or performance.”

The XTP II CP 4i HD DMA 4K PLUS input board can be used with all XTP II CrossPoint matrix switchers and can also be used in original XTP CrossPoint models. This compatibility makes the HDCP 2.2-compliant input board an excellent choice for new and existing installations to support 4K video and audio switching and distribution. XTP II is the only AV technology platform that supports uncompressed 4K video while providing additional bandwidth to accommodate anticipated future video resolutions and formats.
