How many outputs and do you only need HDMI sockets for inputs/outputs or
might you need other connections types too (HDBaseT etc)?



I've had good results with Octava distribution equipment (from Joe Fernand
at The Media Factory) and HDConnectivity/HDAnywhere. Just fitted a 4x4
HDBaseT POE matrix from HDConnectivity which worked perfectly (as I've come
to expect), just does exactly what it's meant to without any issues or
dramas.

Hi Folks,

Does anyone have a recommendation for a 4 input or better HDMI switcher ?

Cheers

Stuart
