Marmitek have launced two new HDMI switchers. The Connect410 and the Connect411 models are both 4-way affairs but the 411 will be of particular interest to smart home enthusiasts.
Most interesting though is the 411’s inclusion of an RS-232 serial port for control, something usual seen only in high end equipment.
- Suitable for simultaneously connecting 4 HDMI sources like set-top boxes, Blu Ray players and game consoles to every HDTV or projector. You only need 1 HDMI input on your TV and you never have to switch cables again.

- With digital audio output for your home cinema set which supports codec formats like Dolby True HD and DTS-HD Master Audio.
- With built-in repeater and equalizer for correcting any possible loss of signal, so you can connect up to 15 metres of HDMI cable to the output.
- High quality 24K Gold Plated HDMI connectors to prevent transmitting- and corrosion resistance.

- Remote control included.
