DVDO®, Inc., an award-winning provider of high-quality video connectivity solutions, today announced the availability of the Matrix44™, the 4K HDMI® matrix switcher that provides four HDMI 2.0 inputs and four discrete HDMI 2.0 outputs to transmit up to 4K at 50/60Hz while supporting 3D, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. Designed for both home and commercial use, it provides intuitive control, fast independent switching and discrete outputs for installers and home theater enthusiasts. Matrix44 is now available at an MSRP of $1499 from authorized DVDO distributors, dealers and online partners.

“We’ve taken our popular Matrix6™ and upgraded the feature-set to include full 4x4 capability, integrated TCP/IP control, and added Android control capabilities to make this an easy-to-use and robust matrix switching system for pros,” said Doug Fealtman, general manager of DVDO. “Whether you’re a home theater enthusiast looking to consolidate your HD and 4K sources, or an installer that wants leading-edge performance with full command and control, the new Matrix44 simply delivers.”

Broad Control Options

Matrix44 offers easy control from a built-in Web server for setup and monitoring, direct TCP/IP, telnet, RS232, and IR for easy integration into a higher-level control system.

Front panel controls are straightforward and allow individual output control, direct jump to preset connections, and the ability to lock out the front panel controls to prevent unwanted changes.

Installer Centric

With a locking power connector, rack mount tabs, remote Web access and easy field-upgradable firmware, Matrix44 is designed with the installer in mind.
