We have just introduced the Hetec V-Switch Quad to our rental stocks

The  V-Switch quad simultaneously displays the video signals from four analog or digital computers or video sources (up to 1920 x 1200 resolution) on a single screen. In addition, these computers can be controlled with just one keyboard and mouse or a single touch screen. V-Switch quad is a Quad-Video Multiviewer and a KVM switch in one device.

With its various viewing modes, the V-Switch quad has a number of features that make it suitable for use as a video wall controller:

In Quad mode, the multiviewer splits the screen into four fields of equal size. Each field displays the entire screen content of a video source or computer.  

When the PiP (Picture in Picture) function is activated, up to all three other video sources are displayed on the right-hand side of the full-screen image as thumbnails, allowing them to be monitored simultaneously. Size, position and selection of these thumbnails are customizable. In the new Triple Tile mode, the Multi-Window Video-Processor automatically resizes the active channel and the PiPs to display all channels as large as possible without overlap  

In Dual mode, the Multi-Viewer displays the left halves of the fullscreen images from two video sources side by side at full size. This allows e.g. to read  even small written text in full resolution and brilliant quality in each of the left halves.

In Fullscreen mode, one of the four video sources is shown at full screen size and maximum resolution.

Full technical details of the V-Switch Quad can be downloaded here (.pdf 670kb)


The V-Switch Quad is available for hire now, For more information, please get in touch

We shall once again be on site in Barcelona for the Mobile World Congress between 27th February and 1st March. This show has always been one of the biggest of the year for us, and judging by advance orders, this year looks like being another busy show for us.

We leave for Barcelona on the 20th February and will be on site from the 23rd - if you need anything for the show, please get in touch ASAP, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your requirements.

We are pleased to have been appointed an official supplier to the Plant and Waste Recycling Show (PAWRS) in Paignton in June 2012. A short-form catalogue is now "live" on our website here. Exhibitors at the show can use this short-form catalogue to place online orders quickly and cost-effectively. 

We are now taking delivery of the new Visage slimline LED PAR Lanterns into our hire/rental stocks. Available in PAR38 and PAR64 sizes, these lanterns utilise 8w 4 in 1 RGBW LEDs for a bright crisp light source with low power consumption:

These new LED lanterns will suit a large number of applications - exhibitions, conferences and stage use. For more details, pricing and availability, or to arrange a demonstration to see if they're suitable for your next project, please get in touch

The Press|Red team were on-site at the BETT Show at Olympia this week installing Audio-Visual, Sound and IT equipment, along with a selection of furniture for our clients.......

We shall soon have stocks of our new LED Video Walls. Using the new 46" panels from Samsung, these video walls have an ultra-thin bezel (just 10.2mm between content), full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution and the low power consumption and weight that the LED technology offers.

We're hoping that the new Video Walls will be in stock in time for Mobile World Congress, and at the very latest for ITB Berlin. 

And the best bit ? They're lower cost than the NEC panels we currently use, so we can pass on the savings by way of lower rental fees.

For a video wall quotation for your next exhibition/event project, please don't hesitate to get in touch
