Extron Now Shipping Compact Four Input Scaler

Anaheim, California (September 4, 2014) - Extron Electronics is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the Extron IN1604 HD, an HDCP-compliant four input scaler that features three HDMI inputs, a universal analog video input, and an HDMI output. It is ideal for installation beneath conference tables and in lecterns to provide localized switching support for sources such as presenter devices. The IN1604 HD provides the convenience of fast and reliable switching, along with a high performance scaling engine for HDMI and analog video sources. Also included are a host of audio processing features and many versatile options for control. The IN1604 HD joins the recently available IN1604 DTP, which features an Extron DTP twisted pair output.

"The IN1604 HD is a compact product that mounts inconspicuously under a conference room table or in a lectern to support multiple guest laptops or tablets, making it ideal for conference room applications, huddle spaces, and collaboration systems," says Casey Hall, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Extron. "The scaler delivers high performance and an essential feature set with the core capabilities of the Extron professional grade presentation switchers, but in a smaller form factor."

The IN1604 HD features an advanced scaling engine that can scale HDMI and analog video signals to a common high resolution output. It provides high performance 1080i deinterlacing and Deep Color processing to deliver optimal image quality. With Extron EDID Minder, Key Minder, and SpeedSwitch, integrators can easily connect sources and a display with plug-and-play simplicity, automatic device negotiation, and nearly instantaneous switching.

The IN1604 HD delivers essential audio integration capabilities that include HDMI audio embedding and de-embedding, flexible audio switching with two individually assignable analog audio inputs, switching transitions, gain and attenuation adjustments for each analog input, output volume control, and selectable audio muting. The IN1604 HD also features convenient options for remote control and operation, including front panel controls and on-screen menus, USB, RS-232, and contact closure with tally output for easy integration into a variety of environments.
