Atlona HDVS-150-TX 3-input switcher
- Three-Input HDBaseT Transmitter for HDMI and VGA

The Atlona AT-HDVS-150-TX is a 3×1 switcher and HDBaseT transmitter with two HDMI inputs and a VGA input with audio. Video signals up to 1080p, plus embedded audio can be transmitted up to 230 feet (70 meters). The HDVS-150-TX is designed for use with the AT-HDVS-150-RX receiver and HD scaler, and can serve as the central component of a compact, automated AV system with the convenience of automatic input selection and display control. The switcher is remotely powered by the HDVS-150-RX through Power over Ethernet (PoE).

Compact Switcher and Extender
- The HDVS-150-TX combines the benefits of auto-switching and integrated display control, and the advantages of HDBaseT signal transmission. It incorporates many popular integration convenience features while delivering excellent value for classrooms, huddle rooms, and meeting spaces.
-Surface mounting brackets are provided with the HDVS-150-TX for easy under-table, furniture, or on-wall installation.

Automatic Display Control
- When used in conjunction with the HDVS-150-RX receiver, the HDVS-150-TX can provide control to a display through RS-232, without the need for a separate control system. This simplifies system design and integration while reducing costs. With automatic display control, the HDVS-150-TX can trigger a display to power on automatically whenever a laptop or other device is connected. At the end of the presentation, when the presenter disconnects the laptop, the HDVS-150-TX forces the display to power off. Ease of presenter interaction with the system, and the savings incurred by automatic display shutdown provide a significant return on investment.
- A power button on the front panel can be used for manual on/off control of the display.
- Automatic display control is available only when connected to the HDVS-150-RX receiver.

Auto-Switching
- The HDVS-150-TX automatically selects an input source based on detection of the 5 volt hot plug detect (HPD) signal.

Applications
- Education environments – The HDVS-150-TX is placed in a lectern for use with sources such as a laptop and document camera. Auto-switching technology selects the active source input, and the signal is transmitted to the HDVS-150-RX at the display. (See this product featured in a case study.)
- Corporate environments – The switcher is installed below a boardroom conference table to allow presenters to easily connect their laptops to the system.
