4. Why is sync
delay
switching
useful?
It eliminates the glitch
normally associated with
switching between high-
resolution RGB type
sources. This is
accomplishing by
disconnecting the sync
portion of a signal before
the incoming video–making
the glitch takes place off-
screen. The Sync Delay
feature is only designed to
work with RGBS and
RGBHV signal formats.

Switcher be

Yes, the MX2436RM uses a
universal internal power

the proper adapter cable for
