WyreStorm Essentials 8K60 HDMI Switcher Series


SKU: EXP-SW-0X01-8K

Our plug-and-play 8K HDMI switcher series has the ability to send uncompressed up to 8K@60Hz or 4K@120Hz resolutions to your display. These switchers also support DSC 1.2a pass-through, an approved method of compression in accordance to the HDMI 2.1 specification, allowing up to a 10K@120Hz signal to be transmitted losslessy.

Ranging in two models with varying number of inputs to choose from, this powerful switcher series also gives you the tools to de-embed audio from your source if there isn’t an option on the source and supports ARC from your display to send to send high quality 5.1 to your audio distribution system. Other features such as auto switching and CEC passthrough makes this WyreStorm Essentials™ switcher series a true and powerful plug-and-play solution.

Don’t forget, this switcher line can be paired with any of our CAB-HAOC-FRL’s to further extend your 8K@60Hz signal further than a standard 8K HDMI cable!

8K AND BEYOND
Our Essentials 8K switchers not only meet 8K demands but they’re empowered with DSC passthrough, an approved method found in the HDMI 2.1 specification to transmit super-high bandwidth content (up to 10K@120Hz!) producing mathematically lossless content. These switchers also support all High Dynamic Range formats including HDR10+, Dolby Vision and HLG.

HDMI 2.1
In addition to 8K resolution, these switchers support a number HDMI 2.1 technologies including, Auto Low Latency Mode, Variable Refresh Rate, Quick Frame Transport and Quick Media Switching ensuring you can take advantage of all the features your 8K display has to offer.

AUDIO BREAKOUT
To be able to send 8K content from source to display, everything inline is required to be HDMI 2.1 compatible, leading to expensive upgrades including your audio distribution system. With our switchers, no need to upgrade your AVR! Simply utilize the audio de-embed on our switchers to get high quality 5.1 while passing HDMI 2.1 content to your display.

COMPLETE YOUR SETUP
WyreStorm offers HDMI 2.1 cables in a number of different lengths and flavors. Use our passive 2.1 cables for short distances up to 3m (9ft). If you need to go a long distance take advantage of our Active Optical 2.1 cables that can reach 15m (50ft).
