Altinex Introduces DA103-302 Ditto-Amp™ HDMI 1x2 Distribution Amplifier

Compact, 1-input to 2-output splitter with HDMI V1.3b and HDCP

Altinex announces the DA103-302 Ditto-Amp HDMI distribution amplifier, the company’s latest addition to its popular line of Dedicated AV Solutions. This new HDMI 1x2 distribution amplifier, frequently called a “splitter”, supports HDMI Version 1.3b with embedded High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) V1.0 and V1.1.

Featuring an integrated 20", 19-pin male HDMI cable for direct connection to source devices such as a BluRay disc player, the Ditto-Amp enables one device to present simultaneous feeds to two separate HDMI displays with computer resolutions up to 1920 X 1080 and HDTV formats ranging from 480p to 1080p at distances up to 60' on each output. The new Ditto-Amp supports standards such as HDMI V1.3b with deep color and new lossless digital audio formats Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio™ in addition to LPCM (Linear Pulse Code Modulation), Dolby AC3, DTS 7.1, and DSD (Direct Stream Digital).

As the Ditto-Amp receives its power from the HDMI port of the source device, there is no need for cumbersome “wall wart”-style power supplies—enabling this HDMI splitter to be placed anywhere one needs to mirror an output from an HDMI unit. Measuring a compact 2.5- x 2.1- x 0.7-inches (63 x 54 x 18mm), the new Ditto-Amp is extremely powerful for its size.

Phil Hale, Altinex Vice President of Sales and Marketing, commented on the company’s new DA103-302 Ditto-Amp HDMI distribution amplifier, “With its self-powered design and support for HDMI Version 1.3b with Deep Color, High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection, and a variety of digital audio formats, our new Ditto-Amp HDMI splitter delivers exceptional performance that will meet audio-visual requirements both today and tomorrow.  This potent little product is a natural addition to Altinex’ Dedicated AV Solution product line.”

The DA103-302 Ditto-Amp HDMI splitter will be available mid-June with a MSRP price of $175.00.
