NeoPro design Video Switching and Distribution products from the ground up specifically for Home Theatre and Pro applications.

The Imperial is a 12 input, 8 output component video matrix switch with input pass through connections.

The pass through connections are high bandwidth buffered copies of all the input signals, before the matrix switch.

These pass throughs can be used to connect to an additional matrix, adding another 8 outputs. Up to 12 Imperials can be stacked to create a full non-blocking 12x96 matrix.

The ideal application for the Imperial is in sports bar or similar retail environments where a large number of displays are required.

Typically with these systems audio is handled separately, as you would not want 48 displays all with their own volume control.

The usual installation would probably have only 4 to 8 zones of audio, therefore a separate multichannel amp system can be used.

The passthrough outputs are the same as the Imperial stacking matrix, so a system may also be designed to use a mixture of Imperials and Hawthornes.

The ideal application for the Hawthorne is in sports bars or similar retail environments where a large number of displays are required.

Typically with these systems audio is handled separately, as you would not want 48 displays all with their own volume control.

The usual installation would probably have only 4 to 8 zones of audio, therefore a separate multichannel amp system can be used.
