AV Distribution & Signal Management
AV Distribution & Signal Management
HDMI extenders, matrix switches, video switches and splitters, AV-over-IP systems, signal processors, converters, distribution products, and accessories for commercial, educational, residential, government, hospitality, entertainment, and professional AV systems.
Move audio and video signals between sources, displays, rooms, and buildings
AV distribution products extend, split, switch, route, convert, and process audio and video signals so content can travel reliably from source equipment to one or more displays, projectors, sound systems, or remote locations.
Southern Electronics supplies signal-management products from Tripp Lite, Vanco, Quest, Ethereal and MetraAV, L-com, AVPro Edge, and other manufacturers for meeting rooms, classrooms, digital signage, control rooms, entertainment systems, residences, hospitality environments, and larger AV installations.

Need Help Choosing?
Send us the source and display types, signal format, cable distance, resolution, number of inputs and outputs, network availability, control requirements, or project specification.
Different ways to extend, route, and manage AV signals
Product selection depends on signal type, resolution, bandwidth, cable distance, source and display count, switching requirements, network architecture, control method, content protection, and future system expansion.
Point-to-Point Signal Extension
Extenders move AV signals beyond the practical distance of a standard HDMI or USB cable using twisted-pair, fiber, coaxial, or network cabling.
- HDMI over Cat5e and Cat6
- HDBaseT extension
- Fiber-optic AV extension
- USB, control, and KVM transport
- Wall-plate and rackmount endpoints
Switching & Multi-Display Distribution
Switches, splitters, and matrix systems select between sources, send one source to multiple displays, or independently route multiple sources throughout an AV system.
- Source selection and automatic switching
- One-to-many signal distribution
- Multiple-input and multiple-output routing
- Presentation and conference-room switching
- Centralized system control
Network AV & Signal Processing
AV-over-IP and signal processors support larger and more flexible systems by placing AV endpoints on the network and adapting signals between different resolutions, formats, and devices.
- Encoder and decoder endpoints
- Network switching and system control
- Resolution scaling and conversion
- EDID and signal-handshake management
- Audio extraction and embedding
