The SW-510W is the first product of its kind to integrate switching for both wired and wireless AV sources, as well as the first AV switcher to include a USB-C input alongside HDMI and DisplayPort. The main benefit is a single, compact solution for universal BYOD compatibility - together with value-added features including automatic display control, automatic input selection, and mirrored HDMI and HDBaseT outputs.
The SW-510W simplifies AV system design, integration, and operation by combining traditional wired plus wireless AV connectivity in a single box. It features built-in Wi-Fi capability and native wireless interfacing with iOS, Android, Mac, Chromebook and Windows devices. Screen mirroring is natively supported without the need to install an app. The SW-510W can serve as an integrated, dual band access point, or be networked into an existing Wi-Fi installation.
"Our systems integration partners and end customers have been seeking an integrated solution to accommodate physically connected and wireless sources," said Steve Kolta, product manager, Atlona. "The SW-510W makes it simple for presenters to connect into the system, and use the mobile device of their choosing."
System integrators further benefit from the Atlona Management System (AMS), a powerful network software platform ideal for configuring, managing, and monitoring the SW-510W and other Atlona IP-controllable devices over a LAN, WAN, or VPN. AMS is available free from Atlona, and greatly streamlines installation and maintenance of several Atlona products throughout a facility or enterprise from a standard web browser.
