HDMI switch is a device that supports multiple HDMI signal inputs and only outputs one of them. Common HDMI switchers are 2-input 1-output, 3-input 1-output, 4-input 1-output, 5-input 1-output, 8-input 1-output, 16-input 1-output, 24-input 1-output, 32-input 1-output, which are commonly known as 2-way, 3-way, 4-way, 5-way, 8-way, 16-way, 24-way, 32-way HDMI switchers. Generally, 2-input 1-output, 3-input 1-output, 4-input 1-output, 5-input 1-output HDMI switchers are more commonly used in ordinary families and small and medium-sized offices; in some large data centers, monitoring rooms, multimedia centers, etc., HDMI switchers with more than 8 ports will be used. Now, the 3-input 1-output HDMI switcher 31HN will be used to show you the interface description and connection effect of the HDMI switcher.
HDMI matrix switcher is a device that supports multiple HDMI signal inputs and can customize single and multiple output modes. Compared with ordinary HDMI switchers, HDMI matrix switchers are more flexible to control. Not only can 1 HDMI signal be distributed into multiple HDMI signal outputs, but also all 1 to 1 outputs can be achieved.
The difference between HDMI matrix switcher and HDMI switcher lies mainly in the output mode support. HDMI switcher only supports 1 HDMI signal output and only supports outputting HDMI signal of 1 host; HDMI matrix switcher has multiple HDMI outputs according to the number of HDMI inputs, supports outputting HDMI signals of all hosts at the same time, and supports distributing 1 HDMI signal into multiple HDMI signal outputs. In general, HDMI matrix switcher is more powerful than HDMI switcher with only single output.
