PCs (as low as two volts) to normal TTL levels.
Audio buffering — Unbalanced stereo audio inputs can be output as balanced audio for
long cable runs.
EDID Minder — EDID Minder is available for VGA signals, allowing the EDID of any VGA
display to be stored and emulated, or any of 14 pre-installed factory EDID files to be
selected and presented to the source.
