Stand I90, Integrated Systems Europe 2008

A limitless number of inputs and outputs is just one of the many unique features of Smart-e's new range of AV distribution matrices. The 'one cable feature' that allows the transmission of HD compatible signals (up to 1080p), digital audio and power, down one cable is another distinctive benefit that is only possible with Smart-e's range of matrix switches.

UK based Smart-e Limited, which pioneered the use of CAT 5 cabling in the AV industry and is highly regarded for their innovative product range, will be showcasing the mid-range and high-end professional AV distribution SNX matrices at ISE 2008. The matrices offer an unprecedented range of switching and distribution for all formats of video, transmitting professional high quality sound and images, via CAT 5 cabling, from DVD players, set-top boxes, video cameras, laptops and PCs, to flat LCD and plasma screens, cinematic projectors, PC monitors and speakers at a distance of up to 300 metres.

The Smart-e mid-range

Designed for applications ranging from education, marine, leisure and corporate use, Smart-e's mid-range matrices are available in three main sizes:

SNX-16x32 (16 inputs and 32 outputs) SNX-32x16 (32 inputs and 16 outputs) SNX-32x32 (32 inputs and 32 outputs).

High-end matrices from Smart-e

Smart-e's high-end matrix range is used for a variety of applications including sports stadia, trading rooms, police and transport mission-critical control centres, where business continuity is essential. These large matrices are available in four core sizes:
