More from Atlona’s AT-UHD-SW-510W press release:
The ground-breaking SW-510W simplifies system design, integration, and operation by supporting both wired and wireless AV connectivity in a single, compact unit.
For local wired sources, the new switcher features one DisplayPort and two HDMI inputs alongside a USB-C input for the latest Mac®, Chromebook™, and Windows® PCs and other USB-C-equipped AV devices.
Adding further value and convenience, the USB-C interface can also act as a charging station for laptops, tablets, and smartphones.
For wireless presentations, the SW-510W interfaces natively with iOS®, Android™, Mac, Chromebook, and Windows devices over built-in Wi-Fi® capabilities, and offers screen mirroring without requiring the installation of an app.
The SW-510U can automatically switch between input sources based on the connection or disconnection of a wired or wireless AV device, providing exceptional ease of use.
On the output side, simultaneous HDMI and HDBaseT interfaces enable multi-destination presentation architectures such as concurrent primary audience and confidence displays, while the HDBaseT output can be paired with Atlona’s AT-UHD-EX-100CE-RX-PSE receiver to extend video, audio, control, and Ethernet up to 100 meters.
The SW-510W supports wired video signals up to 4K/UHD @ 60 Hz, plus support for 4K/60 4:4:4 and HDR formats on local ports (HDMI, USB-C, and DisplayPort) and wireless video up to 1080p/30 (up to 1080p/60 with Miracast).
The switcher is HDCP 2.2 compliant for compatibility with protected content.
“As the BYOD (bring your own device) trend continues to grow, systems integrators and end-users need an integrated switching solution that seamlessly supports both wired and wireless sources,” says Steve Kolta, product manager, Atlona, in the press release.
“The SW-510W combines the flexibility to easily accept any presenter device with a complete range of value-added operational and integration features, and we’re pleased to now be delivering it into customers’ hands.”
