The 8-channel HSD Dual Link Switch SW0013 allows for the selective switching of a common HSD connection (“Common”) to one of eight channels (Channel 1 through Channel 8). Depending on the selected method—locally on the device or via a USB command—the signal is flexibly assigned to a specific channel. It is suitable for modern automotive high-speed video connections.
Thanks to bidirectional signal transmission, both sources and sinks can be connected flexibly, enabling particularly versatile use in complex test environments. Low-loss signal transmission ensures a reliable and stable connection, even in demanding applications.
The switch is housed in a compact, rugged enclosure, allowing it to be integrated into a wide variety of test setups in a space-saving manner—from lab benches to HiL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) systems. This makes it ideal for development, integration, and test and validation environments.
Switching can be performed either directly on the device or conveniently via a USB interface, allowing the SW0013 to be easily integrated into automated test systems.
