ATEN International, a leading provider of KVM and AV/IT connectivity and management solutions, announced the launch of the ATEN VP2420, a 4×2 True 4K HDMI Presentation Matrix Switch with Multi-View capabilities. Designed for seamless collaboration and efficient decision-making, the ATEN VP2420 enhances any meeting environment with stunning True 4K visuals and smart functionality.
It offers effortless switching between multiple sources across mixed-resolution displays, ensuring a smooth, uninterrupted flow even when devices are connected or disconnected. Perfect for huddle rooms, medium-sized meeting spaces, classrooms and even control rooms, the ATEN VP2420 elevates collaborative presentations and training sessions with its dynamic viewing experience and intuitive layout adjustments.
In huddle rooms and medium-sized meeting spaces, simultaneously displaying content from multiple participants can be challenging. The ATEN VP2420 solves this with its advanced multi-view display and automatic layout adaptation, allowing up to four video sources to be shown on a single screen in stunning True 4K/60 resolution.
This delivers exquisite details and clarity, offering an unparalleled viewing experience. Its versatile setup supports side-by-side data comparisons and facilitates idea sharing, enhancing teamwork and decision-making. Beyond merely splitting content, the VP2420 also offers two independent displays: one that manages up to four sources at once for comprehensive overviews, and another that highlights key content, ensuring crucial information always remains in focus.
The ATEN VP2420 is also ideal for smart classrooms, offering six different multi-view layouts to present teaching materials. This gives instructors the flexibility to conduct dynamic training sessions with options such as quad, triple, picture-in-picture (PiP), picture-by-picture (PbP), and full-screen views, all of which can switch seamlessly within one second.
Additionally, the VP2420 supports versatile audio setups with options for audio embedding or separate extraction. Whether used as a standalone unit or integrated with control systems, it ensures easy source control and future scalability, with up to four presentation switches cascaded. Control is highly convenient through front panel pushbuttons, IR controllers, a web GUI, a mobile app, RS-232, and Ethernet.
In high-stakes environments such as transportation hubs, security operations, emergency centers, and control rooms, the interpretation of complex data is crucial. The ATEN VP2420 can integrate with video walls to flexibly distribute large amounts of data across each monitor with multi-view, intuitive layout adjustments. Different layouts can switch seamlessly within one second in True 4K resolution, enhancing decision-making and collaboration across multiple sectors during emergencies.
At the product launch, Nicholas Lin, Senior Vice President of ATEN, said, “We aim to provide an ideal meeting solution that enhances collaboration efficiency for our customers, elevating the meeting experience to the next level. With the multi-view functionality of the ATEN VP2420, comprehensive data presentation is made possible, enabling participants to workshop ideas and compare information on a single screen.”
