| The Intelix DIGI-SCAL-11X2 HD switcher is capable of integrating legacy, non-HD equipment into a distributed high-definition audio-visual system. |
The DIGI-SCAL-11X2, a high-definition switcher with built-in scaling and audio/video format conversion, is one of several Intelix LLC products that debuted at the Digital Signage Expo in Las Vegas, February 24-25, 2010.
“The DIGI-SCAL-11X2 handles the processing of three different devices — switching, scaling and format conversion — in a compact, easy-to-use platform,” said Steve Cohan, CEO of Middleton, Wis.-based Intelix.
According to the company, the DIGI-SCAL-11X2 is ideal for integrating legacy, non-HD equipment into a distributed high-definition audio-visual system. It provides switching between eleven different audio-visual sources, upscaling them to 720p or 1080p, and converting them to HDMI.
The unit features five stereo audio inputs, four HDMI inputs, two YPbPr inputs, two composite video inputs, one S-video input, one VGA input, one DVI-I input, and one optical digital audio input. Dual HDMI outputs allow two displays to be driven simultaneously, and separate optical and stereo audio outputs provide connectivity to analog audio reinforcement systems.
Third-party control systems integrate seamlessly via RS232 and IR, the company said, and the unit also may be controlled via the front panel or with an included wireless remote control. In addition, built-in video processing provides picture adjustment.
