Introduction
Lightware’s universal switcher enhances and extends the possibilities of a meeting room and allows meeting participants to easily use their own devices such as laptops, and preferred video conference platforms while also to utilize the available assets of the meeting space, just like the HDMI displays, room cameras and other USB peripherals. The device utilizes the USB-C connectivity for a simplified transmission of 4K video, audio, control signals and power, and allows data speeds of up to 5 Gbps under the USB 3.1 Gen1 and allowing video resolution capabilities up to 4K@60Hz at 4:4:4. The UCX-4×2-HC30D model also thrives when it comes to audio capabilities, offering analog audio de-embedding feature as well as support for DANTE/AES67 network connection to send DANTE/AES67 audio stream directly to a dedicated audio system.
