What does the A in HDMI20-A-R mean?
This is the audio-enhanced version. It provides sixteen Phoenix analog audio inputs and sixteen analog audio outputs, supporting audio embedding and de-embedding alongside its HDMI routing.
Does this matrix scale every signal or provide seamless switching?
Plan this rental as a signal-routing matrix. Do not assume it replaces a presentation switcher or scaler. Share mixed-resolution or seamless-transition requirements so HRE can help specify the complete signal chain.
What should I include in my rental request?
Specify the MX2-48×48-HDMI20-A-R, rental dates, source and destination counts, resolution, frame rate, cable distances and any audio requirements. Tell us about additional cabling, processing or technical support you need.
Can I rent a different MX2 size?
Yes. Compare our six Lightware MX2 models to select the right port count and connector format for your production.
