HDMI/DVI video switchers

Gefen today debuted two new high definition video switchers, which offer greater flexibility and support for a wide selection of high definition video displays and sources by accommodating both HDMI (high definition multimedia interface) and DVI (digital visual interface) devices. Gefen’s HDMI Switchers are designed to support both interfaces, allowing for cross-interface connections. While the Switchers are manufactured with HDMI connectors, which are smaller than DVI, Gefen supplies a variety of low-cost (up to $30) HDMI-to-DVI and DVI-to-HDMI adapters and cables for DVI devices. These adapters enable incompatible sources and displays to connect and operate seamlessly. The ($350) is expected to begin shipping in October 2004.
