AV Pro Edge AC-AXION-8 Axion 8 18Gbps 8x8 Matrix Switcher

Deliver consistent, high-quality AV across multiple rooms or monitoring stations with the AV Pro Edge AC-AXION-8 Axion 8 18Gbps 8x8 Matrix Switcher. Designed for pro AV, security and surveillance installations, this Pro HDMI Switcher routes 8x8 HDMI sources while preserving full 18 Gbps bandwidth and supporting 4K60 video with 12-bit deep color and HDR formats including Dolby Vision, HDR10/10+ and HLG. The Axion 8’s intelligent downmixing converts object-based audio (Dolby Atmos / DTS:X) to two-channel feeds for zones that lack immersive audio, while HDBaseT and HDMI outputs maintain unimpeded multi-channel audio for capable endpoints. Integrators benefit from advanced EDID management, multiple control options (IR, RS232, LAN, web GUI) and driver support for major control systems—streamlining deployment in AV distribution, monitoring rooms and networked security operations centers. With balanced analog and digital Toslink outputs plus audio delay and volume control, the AC-AXION-8 adapts to mixed audio environments and surveillance monitoring needs. Ideal for commercial installations and security/monitoring setups—specify the Axion 8 for dependable multizone routing and simplified control.
