KVM Matrix Switch for PBP Monitor installation

What is Rextron Full-Screen PBP Technology?
Problems encountered when the monitor PBP function is activated:

1. Picture is squeezed (horizontally)

2. Picture extended with black stripes above and below (Letterboxing)

3. Picture extended with black stripes at both sides (Pillarboxing)

4. PBP doesn't use a full screen at all (picture is not full-half-screen)

5. Incompatible with 16:9 and/ or 21:9 monitors

The major defect of the PBP function is the black borders (black stripes) constantly showing on the LCD screen, which greatly affects the visual experience. Manufacturers usually change the aspect ratio or compress (squeeze) the images to fix such issues. Full-Screen PBP function is Rextron unique technology. It can display full screen PBP images on the screen without any distortion or picture compression.

Rextron PBP KVM switch with EDID parsing and emulating function achieves full frame full screen PBP demonstration especially on 16:9/ 21:9 monitors making full use of every pixel on the screen. Oftentimes many KVM switches have no image scaling function and cause flickering or image distortion in PBP. Rextron PBP KVM EDID parsing and emulating function supports split screens from two different video sources, enables horizontal and vertical PBP fast switching, forms undistorted image, and keeps the aspect ratio in multi-screen setups.

Note: The Monitor must has PBP function to achieve it.

Unique Slide Switch Design Easy to Match with "Dual Monitor" or "Single PBP Monitor" Installation

MBAG-3214 supports dual monitors installation for video matrix switching or one PBP monitor installation for Top-Bottom/ Left-Right PBP demonstration. When one PBP monitor or two monitors are connected to the KVM Matrix Switch, the Mouse Roaming function enables user to move the cursor across the screen border (one PBP monitor connected) or across the screen border to another monitor (two monitors connected). Users may seamlessly switch among 4 computers by moving the mouse cursor and acquire the control without pushing any button.
