IOGEAR Expands HDMI Product Family [07-30-2007]


Launches 4-Port Automatic HDMI Switch

Irvine, CA – July 30, 2007 – Consumers can now simultaneously control and connect up to four High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) devices to television sets, thanks to IOGEAR’s new 4-Port Automatic HDMI Switch. IOGEAR’s patented HDAS (High-Definition Automatic Switch) technology instantly locks and transfers the active audio and video content to the connected HD display. Users can now maintain a single Universal Remote to control a home entertainment center by simply powering on the desired device, and alternate between sources from the comfort of their couches. A single HDMI cable connects an HDTV with the Switch, which links up to four devices, such as Apple TV™, DVD players, video game consoles and media servers. This significantly reduces the amount of wires plugged directly into a television set, making it an ideal solution for modern wall-mount set-ups and eliminating manual switching of A/V inputs. “HDMI technology integration in home media centers shows no sign of slowing down, and the launch of our 4-Port Automatic HDMI Switch is another testament of IOGEAR’s dedication of simplifying integration of technology in consumers’ living rooms,” said Miranda Su, vice president of sales and marketing at IOGEAR, Inc. “With compact size and latency-free audio and video switching capabilities, this offering fits in any media center, providing a vivid and robust home entertainment viewing experience.” The product is High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP)™ compliant and supports 1080p resolution.

It is priced at $189.95 (MSRP) and is available immediately from all major catalog and online resellers, as well as selected retail outlets, and comes with IOGEAR’s standard three-year warranty.
