AMX VPX-1401 4×1+1 4K60 Presentation Switcher

AMX VPX-1401 4×1+1 4K60 Presentation Switcher

The AMX VPX-1401 is a robust presentation switcher engineered for professional AV installations, conference rooms, and medium-scale deployment scenarios. Its straightforward front-panel interface and dual-output architecture make it reliable for switching between multiple source devices while simultaneously feeding both a local display and a remote presentation space. This unit handles the signal management that mid-tier installations demand without unnecessary complexity.

Video Processing & Output Architecture

The switcher accepts 4K60 4:4:4 video with HDCP 2.2 protection across its inputs and processes content through an integrated scaler supporting up to 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 8-bit output. The scaler can be configured for fixed resolution or auto-scaling modes, allowing flexible integration with displays of varying native resolutions. Dual outputs—one HDMI to a local display and one HDBaseT via Cat X cabling to a remote display—enable mirror distribution across multiple rooms or venues without signal degradation.

Connectivity & Control Integration

Input flexibility is provided through 3 HDMI inputs and 1 VGA input, covering the majority of standard presentation sources. The HDBaseT output includes USB 2.0 signal distribution, permitting extended reach to remote locations while maintaining bidirectional control. Audio is handled via a 1 balanced de-embedded analog audio output with volume control, and control surfaces include both physical front-panel push-buttons and contact closure inputs for source selection, alongside NetLinx Native integration for AMX automation systems and open API support.
