an intelligent function. Controls via included wireless IR remote or a newly
adopted high tech touch button design for soft touch switching. This device also
has been upgraded to be intelligent by routing high-definition video (in multiple
resolutions up to 1080P) and digital audio from any one of four sources to a high-
definition display. All four inputs accommodate the simultaneous connections of HD
sources, such as Blu-ray®, satellite, and cable. Quite different than other switchers,
