Details

Extron Annotator 401 (part number 60-1731-01) — a 4K/60 annotation processor that lets presenters mark up live HDMI content in real time.

The unit accepts a single HDMI/DVI input up to 4096x2160 at 60 Hz and passes it out to two independently selectable HDMI outputs, each of which can show or hide the annotation layer, on-screen menu, and cursor on its own. Annotations come from a connected touch display, mouse, or keyboard, and captured screens can be saved locally, pushed to a USB drive, sent to a network location, or printed directly — useful for courtroom exhibits, classroom notes, or design reviews that need a record of what was marked up.

Key Capabilities

4096x2160 @ 60 Hz input and output with Vector 4K scaling
