Control4 unveiled its first 4K UHD matrix switchers that support HDCP 2.2 copy-protected 4K content over their HDMI 2.0 inputs and outputs.
Control 4’s 10×10 HDMI 2.0/HDCP 2.2 matrix switch“We believe these switches are the first video switches available for smart homes with HDCP 2.2 compliance,” said product marketing director Brad Hintze.
The Leaf-brand switches, available for order and shipping at the end of May, distributes 4K content, including copy-protected content, to every room in a house to receivers that plug into TVs and projectors.
Chairman/CEO Martin Plaehn said the company’s recent acquisition of Leaf, the Australia-based maker A/V distribution products, “helped us get to market faster” with HDCP 2.2, the standard set by content creators for copy protection.
