Introduction
About the CrossPoint 42 Matrix Switcher
The Extron CrossPoint 42 HVA Matrix Switcher is an analog RGBHV matrix
switcher, with stereo audio, that distributes any input to any combination of
outputs. The matrix switcher can route multiple input/output configurations
simultaneously.
The Extron CrossPoint 42 HVA Matrix Switcher switches RGBHV and two-channel
stereo audio (balanced and unbalanced). It also switches RGBS, RGsB, RsGsBs,
HDTV, component video, S-video, and composite video (figure 1-1). The audio
switching can either be linked to the video (audio follow) or independent of the
video (audio breakaway). Adjustable audio gain and attenuation compensates for
level differences between audio inputs.
The CrossPoint 42 HVA is a single box solution to simple 300 MHz (-3dB) routing
applications. Each input and output is individually isolated and buffered, and any
of four input(s) can be switched to either or both outputs with virtually no
crosstalk or signal noise between channels.
The CrossPoint 42 HVA is housed in rack-mountable, 1U high, 19” wide metal
enclosure. The appropriate rack mounting kit is included with the switcher. The
switcher has an internal 100VAC to 240VAC, 50/60 Hz, 40 watt, auto-switchable
power supply that provides worldwide power compatibility.
