BZB GEAR BG-UHD-DA1X16 1x16 HDMI V2.0 Splitter with Downscaling and AOC Supported

The BG-UHD-DA1X16 is a high-performance 1x16 HDMI V2.0 Splitter, designed to distribute a single HDMI input to sixteen HDMI outputs. This advanced splitter is capable of supporting 4K signals up to 4K@60Hz 4:4:4, HDR 10, and Dolby Vision, offering superior image quality and vibrant colors.

One of the standout features of this HDMI splitter is its advanced EDID management option. This is controlled using a 4-pin DIP switch located on the front panel of the unit. EDID, or Extended Display Identification Data, is crucial for ensuring compatibility between the source and display for signal transmission and reception. It reads information from a display, including manufacturer name, serial number, product type, filter type, timings, size luminance, and pixel mapping. This feature can help resolve issues such as EDID conflicts, which can result in no picture being displayed.

The BG-UHD-DA1X16 HDMI splitter also supports downscaling. This means that a 4K video input can automatically be downscaled to a 1080p output when connected to a display that only supports resolution up to 1080p. This feature ensures compatibility with a wide range of displays.

In addition to its video capabilities, this splitter also offers stereo analog L/R audio output for audio de-embedding from the HDMI input. It supports CEC and RS232 control, making it a versatile choice for various setups.

The BG-UHD-DA1X16 HDMI splitter supports 4K 60 4:4:4, which refers to a TV resolution of 3,840 x 2,160 pixels. This is four times the number of pixels found in a full HD TV, totaling about 8.3 million pixels. This high pixel density results in a clearer, better-defined picture.

With 18GBPS / HDMI 2.0 support, this splitter offers the maximum bandwidth possible, a significant improvement over the HDMI 1.4's limit of 10.2 Gbps. This technology allows for resolutions of HDCP 2.2, a high-bandwidth digital content protection designed to prevent illegal copying of 4K Ultra HD content.

Finally, the BG-UHD-DA1X16 HDMI splitter supports 4K HDR 4K UHD with HDR over HDBaseT, enabling multi-zone transmission of HDR-10 content. This feature has been a staple in WyreStorm products since the introduction of their first H2 extender in 2015, allowing for the transmission of high-bandwidth content, native & uncompressed over long distances.
