| Knox Video Technologies
breaks new ground in residential systems with the first audio/video
distribution system specifically designed for the home. After more
than two years of development and listening to installers across the
country, Knox Video has engineered a solution that fulfills the needs
of the residential market.
Knox Video’s HD-8 routing switcher enables
multi-source, multi-zone routing and distribution of audio, video and
IR signals. Any source
signal (DVD, DSS, Laser disc, CD, etc.) can be sent to any room or to
any combination of rooms simultaneously without any glitch, noise or
signal degradation. Audio
can automatically follow the video or audio and video may be routed
separately. Infrared control signals may
be routed and distributed through the HD-8 allowing total control of
all components from any room in the house.
Rear panel RCA connectors are gold plated and color-coded for
easy installation.
S-Video
signals may also be converted as well as routed.
S-Video signals from components into the HD-8 are automatically
converted to composite video out for simultaneous dual output signals.
In addition, audio output levels can be adjusted from the front
panel or via remote control. Childproof the system by setting the maximum volume level for
all rooms from the front panel controller.
This
attractive component may be controlled from the user-friendly front
panel push-buttons or with the supplied IR remote control. At a glance, you can see whatever is being watched, or
listened to, in any room of the house.
The lighted window on the front panel of the HD-8 displays the
rooms of the house and the components routed to them.
The on-screen labels of rooms and components may be custom
programmed for any home using the configuration software provided.
