Features

5x1 HDMI Switcher: Metra's CS-HDM5X1SW HDMI switcher incorporates three HDMI 2.0 inputs with one HDMI 2.0 output, allowing you to share and switch between multiple standard definition, high definition, or ultra high definition source devices (like a Blu-ray player, Game Console and Satellite/Cable receiver) on a single display (like your flat-panel TV or front projector).

HDMI 2.0 w/ 4K Support: Metra's 5x1 HDMI 2.0 switcher is compatible with ultra-HD video resolutions up to 4k @ 30Hz with 24-bit RGB/YCBCR 4:4:4/YCBCR 4:2:2, and up to 4k @ 60Hz with 12bit YCBCR 4:2:0. It is also compatible with high definition video up to 1080p @ 60Hz; even 3D video. In addition it supports 480i standard definition video. The switcher is capable of receiving and transmitting video bandwidths up to 300Mhz/10.2Gbps.

Up to 7.1ch Audio: The 5x1 HDMI 2.0 switcher supports up to LPCM 7.1ch, Dolby TrueHD, and DTS-HD Master Audio.

HDCP 2.2 Compliant: HDCP 2.2 is supported by all of the HDMI switcher's inputs & outputs; HDCP is short for "High bandwidth Digital Content Protection" and is used for 4K video copyright protection for compatibility with 4K Blu-ray players and 4K Satellite/Cable providers.

Remote Control: In addition to the HDMI switcher's front-panel input select button, the included IR remote control allows you to wirelessly operate the switcher and select source inputs (1-5). The unit is not equipped with a front-panel IR receiver. Instead, it comes with an external IR receiver with a 59" cord that allows you to install the HDMI switcher out of sight.

LED Indicators: The 5x1 HDMI switcher features six LEDs to indicate Power & Inputs 1-5. These LEDs will illuminate Blue when the device is connected to power and when an input source is selected.

Power Requirements: Metra's CS-HDM5X1SW HDMI switcher operates off of standard household current using the supplied AC power adapter (Input: 100-240V ~ 50/60Hz, 0.15A; Output: 5.0V/1A).

Q
will the Logitech harmony elite remote work with this item?

A
The switch comes with a remote. If the remote you want to use can be programmed it might work. The unit does not appear to be programmable so it will be up to the remote. Hope that helps
