Hi

I would like to connect more devices in more BV7-55. Unfortunately, my BV has just 3 HDMI because of the integrated Bluray player. I heard that B&O offer a Gefen switch. But I need something which is compatible with my Beo4/6. 

What can you suggest? Thank you in advance

B&O recommends the use of the Atlona HDMI Expander AT-HD41D with the BeoVision 7-55.  
The Atlona Expander can be controlled by the TV via PUC.
The software of the TV must be "Build version 525" or higher.
The Atlona HDMI Expander can be ordered directly from the manufacturer, e.g via www.atlona.com

Is this the same product which is needed for the Beovision 10-40 as I need one also?

YES ... but:

- BeoVision 10s must have software "Build 86" or a higher/more recent version.
- You'll have to add Atlona HDMI Expander to the PUC-table flashed into the television.
- Connect Atlona HDMI out to HDMI "C" socket of the BV10
- If the television does not have a HDMI "C" socket (BV10-40Mk1) use HDMI "B".

Thanks Vienna!

What can be controlled by PUC? Can I control the device or just the input for the Atlona switch?
