RTcom reveals v1.3-compatible 8x8 HS-88M Matrix Router
Apparently, unveiling the HDS-41Rv13 HDMI Switcher just wasn't enough for RTCom, which has also rolled out its HS-88M Matrix Router. Hailed as the "industry's first" to allow for eight source displays, this device supports an 8-in, 8-out configuration, full HDCP compliance and control via RS-232, LAN (TCP / IP), infrared or the totally old school "front panel keys." This unit will also handle 36-bit Deep Color, resolutions up to 1080p at 60Hz, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, but don't expect such a solution to run ya cheap. How steep, you say? Try $7,499 steep.[Via Digital Extender]
RTcom's HDS-41Rv13 HDMI Switcher supports v1.3
Another day, another HDMI switcher, but at least RTCom's latest supports HDMI 1.3. The HDS-41Rv13 enables users to pipe in four separate HDMI connections and utilize just one display (or HDMI input on your TV / receiver), but unlike earlier models, this one also supports 36-bit Deep Color along with Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio streams. Furthermore, the included IR remote keeps you firmly planted when sifting through the four inputs, and the signal amplification allows owners to extend cables up to 50 feet. As expected, the unit does indeed support HDCP, and it can be snapped up right now for $199.99.[Via Digital Extender]
