What is an 8K Video Switcher?

An 8K video switcher, also known as an HDMI 2.1 switch, enables users to switch between a range of HDMI sources, such as an 8K streaming box, on one or more output sources. These devices are also popular amongst users with 4K120 monitors and consoles, with the support for higher refresh rates.

Key Features of 8K Video Switchers

Variable Refresh Rate (VRR)

VRR allows the refresh rate of a display (like a monitor or TV) to dynamically adjust to match the frame rate output of a connected device, such as a gaming console or PC.

Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM)

ALLM is a feature that automatically switches a display to a low latency mode (often referred to as Game Mode) when it detects a gaming signal.

Enhanced HDR Formats

Supports HDR, HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG for vibrant colors, deep contrast, and sharp image clarity, delivering an immersive viewing experience across all content types.

Advanced Audio Formats

LPCM, Dolby Digital/Plus/EX, Dolby True HD, DTS, DTS-EX, DTS-96/24, DTS High Res, DTS-HD Master Audio, DSD.

4K@120Hz

HDMI 2.1 is currently the only HDMI standard that supports 4K120Hz, making it a popular choice for gaming and live-action applications.

Intuitive Control for any Size System

Easily manage systems of any size. Basic switchers offer front panel controls and an IR remote, while larger matrix systems offer an intuitive web interface and BZBGEAR’s free control app.

Benefits of Using 8K Video Switchers

An 8K switcher can be implemented to create a professional entertainment system. Additionally, adding an HDMI 2.1 switcher to an existing system can not only enhance but future-proof the system, as 8K video technology is becoming more widely used. Here are some of the key benefits HDMI 2.1 systems have to offer:

HDMI 2.1 Exclusive Video Features

HDMI 2.1 switchers come equipped with video processing capabilities that are exclusive to the HDMI 2.1 standard, which is currently the only HDMI standard with 8K support. This includes VRR, ALLM, and FVA.

Extensive HDMI Audio Formats

BZBGEAR 8K switchers support a wide range of HDMI 2.1 exclusive audio formats with backward compatibility. Select models also feature eARC, enabling high-bandwidth audio transmission for superior sound quality and seamless integration.

Future-Proofing

BZBGEAR HDMI 2.1 switchers not only provide support for 8K but also support backward compatibility, meaning they can process and even enhance 1080P and 4K content. And whenever 8K support is needed, it’ll be there!

Types of 8K Video Switchers

8K Basic Switchers

A basic HDMI switcher enables simple switching between multiple input sources on a single output. Popular configurations for a basic HDMI switch are 2X1 and 4X1.

8K Matrix Switchers

An HDMI matrix switcher allows complex switching and signal routing between multiple input sources and multiple outputs. Matrix configurations can include 2X2, 4X2, 4X4, 8X8, and 16X16.
