Introduction

The A-6 Multi Media Port combines the following functions:
Input plate
Four input Audio-video switcher
Two input RGBHV switcher
RGBHV splitter
in a single-gang wallplate. The Eiki A-6 greatly simplifies installation and cabling and avoids the need in most cases for video/audio and RGBHV switchers.
Anyone who has ever had to manage AV facilities will appreciate these unique features of the MultiMedia Port:
A fast-response “Signal Present” indicator LED for the laptop input helps a user to quickly set up a laptop so that it is outputting a signal.
MultiMedia Ports can be installed in different parts of a room and “daisy­chained” to create an economical multi­point input solution with minimal wiring and no central switchers.
A “Monitor” output allows a desktop PC to display its output on a projector and its own monitor at the same time.
The diagrams on this page show the inputs and outputs that are available on the A-6 Multi Media Port. The rear connections use screw terminal plugs to simplify the installation of fixed wiring.
The Eiki A-6 is an ideal companion for the Eiki MCS-1 and connects directly to it with the supplied interface cable.
The A-6 may also be controlled by other systems. It includes video sensor outputs that may be read by external equipment. Or the A-6 may be used standalone and locked to any fixed input arrangement by a combination of connections on the interface cable.
Please note that the Cable Compensation provision marked on the rear of the unit is not implemented in current production.
