Kramer Electronics FC-18 gateway/controller

FC−18 is a display ON/OFF controller for 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) HDR HDMI signals. It accepts and outputs an HDMI signal after reclocking and equalizing. On detection of the onset of an input signal FC−18 sends an ON command to the display or projector and on detection of the loss of the input signal FC−18 sends an OFF command. FC−18 can also be used to control a display device manually via front panel buttons, Ethernet or contact closure switches.
