AVT-5842 Component Video Router is a 4-Input by 2-Output switcher that can be used for either YPbPr Progressive Scan Video or YCbCr Component Video, plus Stereo Audio. The AVT-5842 is Dual Output Switcher and the selected input is routed to both outputs. Selection can be made by the front panel push buttons or by the IR Remote Control. Up to four devices with Component Video outputs, such as DVD Players, Video Game Consoles, HDTV Receivers or HD Cable Boxes, can be connected to two TV Sets, HDTV Displays or other devices with Component Video inputs, without moving cables around. The high signal bandwidth insures no loss of video or audio quality. Note - This unit does not transcode, so for example, a YPbPr input signal cannot go to a YCbCr device.
