What is a Matrix Switcher?
Simultaneous access to multiple sources is what differentiates a matrix
switch from a simple switch which would only allow one source to be
viewed by multiple zones. A matrix switcher allows multiple users to
access signals from multiple source components. This type of
switching is ideal for whole-house application. For example, it may be
necessary to view the DVD player in the bedroom while, at the same
time, viewing the satellite receiver in the home theater. The P-1421 is
perfect for this application, as it allows 6 sources to be accessed by 4
different users simultaneously.

IR repeating system. The IR control codes can also
be downloaded from www.channelvision.com.
Power Supply... 12VDC@2000mA
Serial Control Cable... Use when connecting the
P-1421 to a serial control device.
Rack Ears... Use when mounting the P-1421 to a
19” rack.
How do the signals get to other rooms?
We suggest the use of a high quality video distribution system such as
Channel Vision’s P-1400 zero-loss video distribution system. This unit
delivers flawless video signals over a 25 meter pre-made cable. The
cable has been precisely constructed to match the pre-amplification
provided by the P-1400. The cable must not be shortened or the
benefits of the P-1400 will be negated.
