Extron Introduces New, Larger VGA and Stereo Audio Distribution Amplifiers

Anaheim, California (May 8, 2008) - Extron Electronics is pleased to introduce new eight-output and twelve-output VGA and stereo audio distribution amplifiers as part of the popular P/2 DA Series. The P/2 DA8 and P/2 DA12 Series are compatible with computer-video resolutions up to QXGA and feature fully buffered outputs, selectable input and output sync impedance, ID bit/DDC routing to the local monitor output, and individually selectable output muting. Two models in this series, the P/2 DA8 A and P/2 DA12 A also feature active PC audio buffering. All models are compatible with high-resolution RGBHV computer-video signals, as well as HDTV component analog signals with tri-level sync, making them ideal for AV signal distribution needs in commercial, rental and staging, and residential applications.

"These new sizes extend the price/performance benefits of the P/2 DA Series to the larger AV distribution system designs commonly found in courtrooms, conference facilities, and similar high profile environments," says Lee Dodson, Vice President of Marketing for Extron.

The Extron P/2 DA Series of VGA distribution amplifiers is available in sizes from two outputs to twelve outputs. All models offer 350 MHz (-3dB) RGB video bandwidth, fully loaded, for optimum signal integrity at the highest computer-video resolutions. ID bit routing is provided to maintain compatibility with Windows® Plug-and-Play displays. Audio-capable models feature active PC audio buffering, converting unbalanced stereo audio to balanced, line level signals to eliminate unwanted noise over long cable runs.
