This switch allows you to use two players on one TV or monitor. This allows you to alternate between two game consoles, such as the PS5 and Xbox Series X, without any loss of quality if your display only has one free HDMI port. You can switch between the two inputs by pressing the button on the front or using the included remote control. Automatic switching between the HDMI inputs is possible with most – but not all – devices. The device will automatically switch to the last connected device. Auto-switching can be disabled.
The SW212 features an HDMI 2.1 audio extractor. This allows audio to be transmitted not only via HDMI, but also via optical SPDIF (Toslink) and analog (3.5 mm jack) to a sound system or headphones/headset. Please note that only stereo, DTS, and Dolby Digital are supported via Toslink. Only stereo audio is output via the analog output. The same audio format is output everywhere ; the switch does not convert the formats. Therefore, select a maximum of 5.1 bitstream audio on your game console if you want to use the Toslink connection, or stereo for the jack output. You can set the formats either on your players or use the SW212's EDID management. Please note that audio formats such as PCM 5.1 or Dolby Atmos are only passed through the switch via HDMI and not output via SPDIF/jack. (No sound system could handle these via such inputs.)
The internal TV sound of a TV with HDMI-ARC or eARC cannot be extracted with this.
The switch supports HDMI 2.1 features VRR, ALLM, QFT, and FVA for gaming, as well as video resolutions up to 4K 120Hz 12-bit or 8K 60Hz 12-bit. The maximum data rate is 48 Gbps. Also supported are:
Note that the cable length becomes more critical the higher the data rate of the AV signal. For 8K resolution or 4K 120Hz, we recommend a maximum cable length of 2 m for both the inputs and outputs. If you need longer distances, you can use special HDMI cables with fiber optic data lines or active cables. For 4K video, the cables can be up to 6 m long, and for Full HD, up to 15 m.
The scope of delivery includes an infrared remote control for switching on/off and switching and a power supply with Euro plug .
The EDID mode can be set if required using the 3 dip switches:
Dip | video | Audio |
111 | Copy* | Copy |
001 | Copy* | 5.1 DTS/Dolby/PCM2.0 |
000 | Copy* | 7.1 DTS/Dolby/HD/PCM7.1 |
110 | 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 | PCM 2.0 |
101 | FRL12G** 8K HDR | PCM 2.0 |
100 | FRL12G** 8K HDR | 5.1 DTS/Dolby/PCM2.0 |
011 | FRL12G** 8K HDR | 7.1 DTS/Dolby/HD/PCM7.1 |
010 | FRL12G** 8K HDR Dolby Vision | 7.1 DTS/Dolby/HD/PCM7.1 |
*COPY means the display data will be copied
**FRL12G enables a maximum data rate of 48 Gbps, based on HDMI 2.1
This also allows you to force audio formats on a monitor or video projector that otherwise do not support audio.
