Sanwa Direct Launches 4K HDMI Switches for Home Theater Setup

Sanwa Direct launched two new HDMI switches on June 11, 2026. The release addresses the common need for extra display connections in home setups. These units support 4K resolution at 60Hz and include HDR compatibility. They offer a compact solution for users who run multiple devices through a single monitor input.

Compact HDMI switches from Sanwa Direct resolve port shortages with remote control and 4K support

The product line includes two models with different port counts. Model 400-SW042 provides three inputs and one output. Model 400-SW043 expands this to four inputs while maintaining the single output configuration. Both units share identical physical dimensions and weight specifications.

Spec comparison

Each switch measures 129mm in width, 61mm in depth, and 17.5mm in height. The chassis weighs just 78 grams for easy placement near displays or consoles. Users control input selection through buttons on the device body or an included remote control. An LED indicator on the front panel shows which port is currently active.

The inclusion of a dedicated remote helps prevent accidental screen switching during use. This feature allows users to change sources without standing up from their seating position. The compact form factor ensures the switches do not obstruct adjacent ports on TVs or monitors. Both models maintain a consistent design language across the product range.

Pricing for the 3-input model stands at 3,480 JPY in Japan. The 4-input version costs 3,780 JPY in the same region. These prices include tax and reflect direct sales rates from Sanwa Direct. Both models are available through Amazon Japan alongside the official store.

Sanwa Supply has a history of producing affordable connectivity accessories for Japanese consumers. This release follows their previous pattern of offering practical HDMI solutions without premium pricing. The new switches fit into their existing lineup of display management tools.
