Atlona Now Shipping HDVS-200 Series Switcher and Scaler with HDMI and VGA Transmission over HDBaseT

Atlona's three-input AT-HDVS-200-TX switcher/transmitter

Atlona, as AV connectivity solutions company, announces it is now shipping its HDVS-200 Series of auto-switching extension and scaling products for conveying Ethernet-enabled HDMI and VGA content via HDBaseT. The two new models, the three-input AT-HDVS-200-TX switcher/transmitter and AT-HDVS-200-RX receiver/scaler, represent a new generation of products designed to provide comprehensive and automatic control of AV systems and expand the input capabilities of Atlona's 4K/UHD matrix switchers.

Used in tandem for huddle space systems, the HDVS-200 Series components offer an extensive, efficient array of AV system features, including auto switching for HDMI and VGA inputs, automatic projector on/off control, automatic display control of professional monitors and consumer TVs, volume control and de-embedding of analog audio. The devices support remote control via TCP/IP, RS-232, and Consumer Electronics Control (CEC). The switcher receives power from the AT-HDVS-200-RX scaler via Power over Ethernet (PoE), and together they create a standalone AV switching system for classrooms and huddle rooms.

"All of Atlona's products are designed to make our integrators' installations easier and more efficient," said Michael Khain, VP product development/engineering at Atlona. "The real benefit is ease of presenter interaction with the system due to our automatic display control and automatic input selection capabilities that the HDVS-200 Series offers."

The HDVS-200 Series devices are powerful solutions when used separately as input/output components in larger systems. Both models can be remotely managed by the Atlona management system software, which integrates product configuration, management, and updating.

The AT-HDVS-200-TX switcher features two HDMI inputs and a VGA input with a 3.5mm audio connector, and it extends video signals up to 4K/UHD at 60Hz with embedded audio to a distance of 328' (100m). It can be used as an input device with several Atlona matrix switchers, e.g. AT-UHD-CLSO-824, enabling one HDBaseT input on a matrix to handle three auto-switched sources.

Atlona's AT-HDVS-200-RX is an Ethernet-enabled HDBaseT receiver for AV transmission and scaling of video signals up to 1080p at 60Hz. In addition to pairing with the AT-HDVS-200-TX, it works well as a remote output scaler for the AT-UHD-CLSO-824 matrix switcher or AT-UHD-SW-52ED switcher. When used with these switchers, it receives IP and HDMI signals with embedded audio and control signals across distances of up to 328' (100m). Ports for TCP/IP and RS-232 connections provide flexible options for third-party control systems.

As with all Atlona products, the AT-HDVS-200-TX switcher and AT-HDVS-200-RX scaler carry the company's award-winning 10-year limited warranty.
