IOGEAR, a manufacturer of innovative information technology products for consumers and small- to medium-sized businesses, is showcasing its newest A/V solutions for homes and businesses at CEDIA Expo (booth 5953) taking place Sept. 4-8, 2018, at the San Diego Convention Center.  The new IOGEAR A/V solutions make it easy and convenient for users to transmit and distribute 4K HDMI video signals providing versatility and cost savings to greatly simplify complex video distribution requirements.


Transmit 4K Video Wirelessly Over Long Distances


The GWLR4K60KIT Wireless Long Range HDMI 4K @ 60Hz Kit (GWLR4K60KIT) enables the transmission of HDMI 2.0-quality video over distances up to 656 feet using a dedicated 802.11ac wireless connection, eliminating the labor and expense of running cables between source equipment and HDTV displays.  The GWLR4K60KIT, which was named a CES 2018 Innovations Award Honoree, is a true DIY product that features Plug-n-Play set up between the transmitter and receiver, and wraps up the IR signals so the user can control the source device from the remote receiver.  


Connect Multiple True 4K Video Sources to a Single HDMI Display


The True 4K 8-Port Switcher with HDMI Connection (GHSW8481) and True 4K 4-Port Switcher with HDMI Connection (GHSW8441) enable users to connect up to eight or four (respectively) HDMI video sources, such as computers, Blu-ray or media players, and cable or satellite receivers, to a single HDMI display.  Users can send crystal clear, Cinema 4K video reaching true 4K resolutions of 4096 x 2160 @ 60Hz with 4:4:4 Chroma subsampling, High Dynamic Range (HDR) and uncompressed audio for a wide variety of uses including home theater, in lobbies and conference rooms, and for digital signage.  Users can quickly switch between video sources via push-button, IR remote or RS-232 serial control.


Connect Multiple HDMI Displays to a Single Video Source


The new 4-Port Cinema 4K Splitter with HDMI Connectors (GHSP8424B) and 2-Port Cinema 4K Splitter with HDMI Connectors (GHSP8422B) enable users to send Cinema 4K audio and video from a single HDMI source to four or two (respectively) 4K displays or projectors at distances up to 49 feet.
