ZIGEN HDMI

ZIGEN is a brand specializing in HDMI switching and distribution equipment, primarily serving the professional audio-visual integration market. The product line includes multi-port HDMI switches, HDBaseT extenders, and related signal management hardware. ZIGEN devices are designed for commercial and industrial environments where reliable signal routing is required, such as conference rooms, digital signage networks, and broadcast facilities. The brand's portfolio covers a range of port configurations—from 4-port to 16-port models—and supports high-definition audio formats, including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. Many ZIGEN switches feature HDBaseT technology, which enables transmission of uncompressed HDMI signals over long distances (up to 100 meters) using standard CAT5e/6 cabling, reducing installation complexity and cost. The switches are housed in black metal enclosures with HDMI female or male connectors, and dimensions vary from compact desktop units (e.g., 1.75 inches high, 0.75 inches wide) to larger rack-mountable chassis (e.g., 5.125 inches high, 18.875 inches wide). Build quality emphasizes passive cooling (fanless designs in many models) and EDID management for consistent display compatibility. ZIGEN products are typically specified for 1080p and 4K resolutions, with some models supporting 3D video pass-through. 3G Electric supplies ZIGEN HDMI switches and related accessories globally, offering multiple SKUs with varying port counts and form factors. The inventory includes both standalone switches and chassis-based systems for scalable installations. Procurement specialists and system integrators can select from models like the ZIG-SW42 (5-port switch) or the HX-1616/HDBT chassis (16-port HDBaseT matrix), each with documented specifications for input/output configurations, power requirements, and supported audio formats. 3G Electric provides logistics support for international orders, ensuring that ZIGEN equipment reaches project sites without delays. For engineers designing AV distribution networks, ZIGEN switches offer a straightforward solution for routing multiple HDMI sources to one or more displays, with HDBaseT variants simplifying long-distance runs. The brand's focus on core switching functionality—without proprietary software or licensing—makes it a practical choice for cost-sensitive commercial installations. All ZIGEN products supplied by 3G Electric are new and covered by manufacturer warranties; no refurbished or gray-market units are offered. Technical documentation, including wiring diagrams and EDID tables, is available upon request to assist with system integration.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about ZIGEN HDMI from 3G Electric.

What is the maximum cable length supported by ZIGEN HDMI switches with HDBaseT?

ZIGEN HDMI switches that incorporate HDBaseT technology, such as the HX-1616/HDBT chassis, can transmit uncompressed HDMI signals up to 100 meters (328 feet) over a single CAT5e or CAT6 cable. This distance is achievable at 1080p resolution; for 4K signals, the maximum length may reduce to approximately 70 meters depending on cable quality and signal integrity. Always use shielded twisted-pair cabling for optimal performance.

Do ZIGEN HDMI switches support 4K resolution and HDR?

Many ZIGEN HDMI switches are designed to support 4K resolution at 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling, as well as HDR10 and Dolby Vision pass-through. However, specific model capabilities vary. For example, the ZIG-SW42 5-port switch supports 4K@60Hz, while older models like the HX-70-RSC are limited to 1080p. Always verify the product specifications for the exact resolution and HDR support before purchasing.

Can ZIGEN HDMI switches be rack-mounted?

Yes, certain ZIGEN HDMI switches are designed for rack-mount installation. The HX-1616/HDBT chassis, for instance, has a 19-inch rack-mountable form factor with a height of 5.125 inches (3U). Smaller desktop models like the ZIG-SW42 are not rack-mountable but can be placed on a shelf or mounted under a desk using optional brackets. Check the product dimensions and mounting options in the datasheet.

What audio formats are supported by ZIGEN HDMI switches?

ZIGEN HDMI switches support high-definition audio formats including Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, and LPCM up to 7.1 channels. The HX-70-RSC model explicitly lists support for high-definition audio. All switches pass through audio embedded in the HDMI signal without conversion or downmixing, ensuring compatibility with AV receivers and soundbars.

Are ZIGEN HDMI switches compatible with HDCP 2.2?

Most current ZIGEN HDMI switches are HDCP 2.2 compliant, allowing them to handle protected content from sources like Blu-ray players and streaming devices. However, some older models may only support HDCP 1.4. For example, the ZIG-SW42 is HDCP 2.2 compliant, while the HX-70-RSC may be limited to HDCP 1.4. Verify the HDCP version in the product specifications to ensure compatibility with your source devices.
