Atlona is shipping the new AT-OME-MS42-HDBT 4×2 matrix switcher with an HDBaseT input alongs with local USB-C and two HDMI connections. The product includes HDMI and HDBaseT outputs (one each) with selectable switching modes to simplify configuration and user operation for presentation requirements.

The OME-MS42-HDBT supports HDBaseT extension for video up to 4K/60 4:2:0 over 330 feet (100 meters) of category cable alongside embedded audio, control, Ethernet and USB. All HDMI connections and the USB-C input support 4K HDR and 4K/60 4:4:4, with downscaling capabilities to support 1080p resolution out of the HDMI output. The switcher’s integrated USB extension addresses the challenge of connecting between USB devices at remote locations, accommodating up to four host PCs through USB 2.0 type B and USB-C ports, and remotely over HDBaseT. A built-in USB 2.0 hub provides connectivity for two peripheral devices such as a camera, microphone, speakerphone, or keyboard and mouse.
