The Hall Technologies HT-GEMINI is a 4K 6-Input multi-format extender switch with USB extension for a soft codec, which provides AV switching, USB, HDMI, DP, VGA, and USB-C extension, plus system control for meeting spaces using PC-based conferencing codecs such as Microsoft Skype, Webex by Cisco and Citrix GoTo Meeting. The kit offers six video inputs shared between both devices for HDMI, Display Port, VGA plus analog audio in and USB-C video signals. To simplify conference room device management, the kit provides four USB Type-B connectors for host computers. Six built-in USB hubs, three on the transmitter and three on the receiver, allow for numerous Human Interface Devices (HID) as well as USB cameras and microphones.
The kit is compatible with Ultra High-Definition source up to 4K/UHD@60 Hz with 4:2:0 color subsampling. All audio, video, data, control, USB, and Ethernet transmission between the two devices is carried over a single, Ethernet-enabled HDBaseT link up to 100m/330ft.
HT-GEMINI simplifies classroom and small office system integration, for installation beneath conference tables and in lecterns, to provide localized presentation switching support.
