More Sources. Smarter Switching. Less Complexity.
Switch eight HDMI sources between two outputs with 4K video support, downscaling and a useful legacy-AVR bypass path.
The AC-MX-82RM is a professional AVPro Edge solution designed for 8×2 18gbps hdmi matrix with automatic switching. Switch eight HDMI sources between two outputs with 4K video support, downscaling and a useful legacy-AVR bypass path. It is intended for integrators who need to match the signal path to the connected equipment rather than rely on a generic consumer accessory.
Purpose-built AV performance.
Reliable performance begins with a system design that considers the source signal, destination capabilities and cabling. For this model, the most important considerations are eight-source connectivity, two hdmi destinations and 18gbps hdmi support. The specifications and feature descriptions below distinguish the capabilities of this model from other products in the AVPro Edge range.
Choosing the correct equipment is particularly important when different rooms, receivers or displays have different capabilities. The AC-MX-82RM is best evaluated as part of the complete signal chain: source, transport or routing hardware, control system and final playback equipment.
Features and capabilities
| Eight-source connectivity | Connect up to eight HDMI devices such as streaming players, consoles and presentation systems. |
| Two HDMI destinations | Provide flexible source selection for a main display and a second screen or receiver. |
| 18Gbps HDMI support | Original catalog lists HDMI 2.0 a/b, HDCP 2.3 and up to 4K video. |
| Automatic source switching | Useful for conference and bring-your-own-device spaces that should follow an active source. |
| Legacy-AVR bypass | Send high-bandwidth video to a modern screen while using a secondary HDMI path for an older audio receiver. |
| Video downscaling | Scale video for the older device without intentionally altering the associated high-bitrate audio. |
| Output equalization | Help stabilize supported HDMI connections over suitable cable lengths. |
| Residential or meeting-room use | Works for theater source consolidation as well as simple presentation-source switching. |
Connections and system design.
Connect sources to the matrix and plan each output for its destination's video and audio capabilities. Use supported EDID, scaling and automation controls to accommodate mixed generations of equipment.
Verify HDMI bandwidth, HDCP, output processing and any required HDBaseT receivers for the specific source/display combination.
