Meeting Space Collaboration System

The Extron HC 404 combines video switching, scaling, signal extension, and system control into a transmitter and receiver pair at a price point that fits any application. The HC 404 features two HDMI and one VGA input at the transmitter, and one HDMI input at the receiver. Advanced Extron scaling technology ensures excellent image quality with maximum detail and color accuracy. Built-in control capabilities facilitate automatic source switching, display control, and integration with occupancy sensors for an intuitive, effortless user experience. Designed for professional integration, low-profile HC 404 transmitter and receiver enclosures are ideal for discreet placement beneath tables, behind displays, or wherever the application requires.

Effortless Collaboration
The HC 404 is easy-to-use and fully operational out of the box. Automatic power control and switching allow users to collaborate with minimal interaction with the AV hardware. The system powers the display on when a presenter connects a source device, and automatically switches to new source devices as they are connected. When no signal is detected, the system will power down after a predetermined time period. For further flexibility, integration with Extron OCS 100 occupancy sensors can automatically power the system on when users enter the room. Connecting a ShareLink wireless collaboration gateway to the receiver’s HDMI input adds support for wireless BYOD – Bring Your Own Device environments, providing effective collaboration and content sharing from a wide variety of mobile devices.

Reliable Operation
The HC 404 is a highly reliable AV system solution designed for professional requirements. It delivers high quality extension of video and audio signals for maximum performance and reliability. Multiple input connections are provided to support a wide range of video sources and resolutions. Advanced Extron video scaling ensures excellent video quality and EDID Minder technology ensures a consistently reliable image at the display.

Easy to Integrate
The HC 404 is simple to install and easy to set up. Robust signal extension over CATx eliminates the need for long video cables. For simplified installation, remote power capability enables a single supply connected at the receiver to provide power to both the transmitter and receiver. Managing system AV settings is easy with Extron PCS – Product Configuration Software, which also allows convenient control of multiple systems. Ethernet connectivity facilitates management, monitoring, and control of AV devices over a standard network. The HC 404 offers built-in control processing, eliminating the need to connect additional equipment. Ethernet, RS-232, IR, CEC, and digital I/O ports are available on the receiver to control and interface with displays, sensors, switchers, or other equipment. No programming is required. Configuration is simple using Global Configurator, Extron’s powerful software for AV control systems.

Expandable Functionality
HC 404 system solutions can be expanded for even more functionality with a variety of compatible products. Wireless collaboration may be added with a ShareLink gateway. Control processing is expandable via controller grouping with Global Configurator Professional and GlobalViewer Enterprise software can be used for remote device management. The HC 404 is available as part of the preconfigured Teamwork Connect 300 package and in the TeamWork System Builder, an interactive online tool that guides users through the configuration of the ideal collaboration solution.
