The Blustream SW41HDBT is a four-input presentation switch that combines two local HDMI inputs and two HDBaseT inputs, then sends the selected source to an HDMI output and an HDBaseT output at the same time. Its CSC (colour space conversion) processing supports the HDMI 2.0 18Gbps specification including HDR, and it can automatically downscale a 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 source to 4K 30Hz 4:4:4, 4K 60Hz 4:2:0 or 1080p on the HDBaseT output when required.
Power over Cable from the switch can run compatible 12V Blustream transmitters and receivers, so wall-plate inputs in a boardroom or classroom need no local power. Audio is broken out to analogue L/R and Toslink outputs for a local amplifier. Performance depends on the features of the paired transmitter or receiver.
