3 Overview
Your high resolution CVG-21RCA 2x1 Audio/Video/Component Switcher is a
versatile mechanical switcher that can be used for many different types of
signals. In particular, the CVG-21RCA:
• Switches 3 identical channels simultaneously, so it may be used for
composite video with 2 audio channels; for 3 independent composite video
channels; for one composite and one Y/C channel; for component video (YUV
or RGB), SDI, HDTV or for any other combination
• Uses an “RF” PCB design with 3 ultra high bandwidth channels,
providing bandwidth exceeding 1000 MHz (1 GHz), and is therefore suitable
for use with almost any common signal
• Is housed in a desktop enclosure and can be used in “reverse” as well –
functioning as a 1x2 switcher (toggling one source between two acceptors)
• Provides a simple solution for many switching needs and as the design is
passive, it does not need power, thus increasing its versatility
