1.4 Introduction
The Avenview SW-HDSDI-8X2 receives and equalizes up to 8 SDI inputs, perfectly switches the desired input to
SDI equipped monitors or receivers. The switch supports both HD/SD-SDI bit rates. Through RS-232, IR remote,
or front panel push button, the control of the SDI switch becomes versatile and easier. By perfectly duplicating
the chosen SDI input, this SDI switch provides two identical outputs, and acts like a SDI splitter. SW-HDSDI-8X2
offers the most convenient and cost effective means for swift switch and duplication of high quality SDI in the
market..
