"We created the MX-6388 to deliver no-compromise performance for professional end users in the broadcast, entertainment, education and commerce sectors," said Andy Fliss, Director of Marketing, tvONE. "By maximizing signal-processing resources and integrating memory to aid system recovery, the MX-6388 assures customers of the best possible video and audio quality as well as ultimate flexibility by supporting up to 8x8 channels simultaneously."
The MX-6388 allows distribution of eight HDMI signals to eight connected devices, either independently or simultaneously. It supports the HDMI v1.3 standard as well as HDCP 1.1 and DVI 1.0.
