AV Bridge 2x1
HDMI switcher and audio mixer for conferencing, featuring 4x4 Dante I/O and simultaneous 1080p USB 3.0, HDMI, and IP streaming outputs
The Vaddio 999-8250-000 AV Bridge 2x1 serves as a comprehensive classroom-in-a-box solution, integrating networked audio and video mixing into a single compact device. Designed for professional conferencing and lecture capture, this bridge handles two HD video sources via HDMI inputs—allowing for combinations like two cameras or a camera paired with a PC display. It provides flexible distribution through simultaneous 1080p USB 3.0, HDMI, and IP streaming outputs, enabling users to record to a local PC, use a projector for magnification, and stream to online platforms all at once. Audio management is handled by a built-in 4x4 Dante audio matrix providing a 12x12 cross-point audio matrix for scalable, networked audio distribution. The device includes 2-channel analog audio I/O for easy integration into existing classroom designs. For production quality, users can utilize Picture-in-Picture (PIP) layouts—including side-by-side, top-bottom, or four-corner inset—and store graphic overlays like logos. Control is versatile, supporting RS232, Telnet, USB, and a built-in web-based user interface, with compatibility for Vaddio Device Controller and Quick-Connect systems like QCCU and QDVI. This TAA-compliant device ensures crystal clear conferencing through integrated echo cancellation.
