Blustream 7-Input/2-Output Multi-Format Presentation Switcher

Blustream MFP72 Overview

The 7-Input/2-Output Multi-Format Presentation Switcher from Blustream is a versatile device with built-in scaling that works in Splitter and Switcher modes. It features two HDMI outputs that display the same image from any video input when used in Splitter mode, or it allows you to control each HDMI output independently in Switcher mode. Four HDMI inputs and single VGA, composite, and YPbPr component inputs provide input flexibility for bringing in various sources, in different formats, and with support for resolutions up to 4K60 with 4:2:0 chroma subsampling.

Audio is input via two 3.5mm analog stereo ports, two analog RCA stereo pairs, or as embedded audio via HDMI. A single 3.5mm port and a SPDIF coaxial RCA port provide analog and digital audio output respectively, including audio that has been de-embedded from the HDMI sources. The HDCP 1.4 compliant device offers advanced EDID management, and it can be controlled via the front-panel push buttons, Blustream Matrix App, IR remote control, RS-232 interface, and TCP/IP. A 5 VDC, 2A power supply is included with the unit along with the necessary IR remote, receiver, and control cable, as well as a rack-mounting kit.
