Third Annual Sports & Technology Research Study
The Sports Video Group and the Consumer Electronics Association has released the
third-annual “Sports & Technology Research Survey, highlighting the power
that sports content has as both a driver of HD set sales as well as other new
technologies. The survey includes our exclusive 2008 Super Bowl Briefing as
well as new data about consumer online sports viewing behavior.
The TVOne-task 1T-SX-524 DVI Switcher is a compact, high
performance product designed to meet the most demanding requirements for the
switching of DVI signals with HDCP copy protection. The 1T-SX-524 has four
inputs, and it can be controlled from the front panel input selection button or
the included infrared remote control. The unit has a MSRP of $349.
The 1T-SX-524 has a maximum pixel rate of 165 MHz provides
resolution capabilities up to 1920x1200 and 1080p. The unit has DVI-I
connectors for the input and outputs and is powered by an included power
adapter that provides 5VDC for operation. If a conflict exists with other IR
remote controls in the operational environment, the included IR remote
controller can be easily reprogrammed to avoid the problem.
An LED display indicates the current input selection and the
presence of DC Power. An IR Remote Receiver Option is available for
applications requiring the unit to be hidden from view or when it is desirable
to extend the range beyond a direct view of the unit such as around a corner.
