Flawless Live 4K
Processing

The P20/P20-DS/P10 are PIXELHUE's all-new 4K presentation switchers fully featured in a compact form factor. Featuring high-quality 4K processing, the P20/P20-DS/P10 are designed with a wide variety of 4K connectors, including HDMI 2.0, DP 1.2 and 12G-SDI.

The P20/P20-DS/P10 can work in switcher mode or PGM only mode. In switcher mode, a single P20/ P20-DS supports up to two 4K×2K@60Hz outputs and a single P10 supports one 4K×2K@60Hz output. In PGM only mode, the output resolution per P20/P20-DS is up to 8K×4K@60Hz and P10 is up to 8K×2K@60Hz.

Additionally, the P20/P20-DS/P10 come with dedicated AUX outputs connecting to auxiliary devices and a dedicated Multiviewer output is provided for live view of all the inputs and outputs from one display. High-performance image deinterlacing is also supported.

Powerful
Functionalities

Driven by an advanced FPGA architecture and true 4K60p 4:4:4 10-bit processing, the P20/P20-DS/P10 switchers deliver uncompromising reliability and stunning visual quality for small-to-medium live events and fixed installations. Flexibly choose between Switcher and PGM-Only modes to master versatile multi-screen setups with seamless transitions, flawless image mosaic, multi-projector edge blending, and LCD bezel compensation.

Maximize audience engagement with robust customizable layer management: the P20/P20-DS drives up to 12 DL layers (2×MAIN+10×PIP) or 8 DL layers (4×MAIN+4×PIP), while the P10 supports up to 6 DL layers (2×MAIN+4×PIP). Instantly recall up to 128 presets, capture live high-res inputs for BKG, and apply dynamic effects like DSK, mask, crop, flip, cut & fill, border, shadow, and KeyFrame. Furthermore, the series elevates productions with free SDR/HDR10/HLG conversion (P20/P20-DS) and native Dante audio networking (P20-DS).

Longer Transmission
Distance

10G optical fiber ports are provided for copying HDMI 2.0 output, allowing the P20/P20-DS/P10 to transmit signals to the LED controller (VX1000, VX600, VX400, H series, MX40 Pro, MCTRL 4K and NovaPro UHD Jr from NovaStar are currently supported) over a long distance (up to 10 km with SMF) without fiber converters. This method not only ensures the signal stability but also lowers the transmission cost, making the P20/P20-DS/P10 ideal for long-distance signal transmission.

Flexible Control
Options

In addition to superior performances and outstanding visual experience, the P20/P20- DS/P10 are exceptionally easy to control via any of the following options. Multiple switchers can be controlled simultaneously by a single event controller/PC with PixelFlow when they are on the same LAN and in the same project.

• Fully-featured front panel buttons and 5-inch graphical LCD
• Versatile event controller U5/U5 Pro
• All-new event management software PixelFlow
• Third-party control system Stream Deck (Companion integrated into the switcher)

Superb Stability &
Reliability

Engineered for mission-critical applications, the P20/P20-DS/P10 guarantee maximum uptime. They feature comprehensive backup methods— including device, input source, and automatic output backups—ensuring zero downtime with seamless, instantaneous switchovers. Furthermore, having passed rigorous drop, shock, vibration, and thermal tests, these road-ready switchers are built to survive the most demanding touring and live event environments.
