The Extron IPL T S Series of compact Ethernet control interfaces feature an integral high
performance Web server and are designed to integrate IP - Internet Protocol connectivity into
A/V systems, giving users the ability to remotely and proactively monitor and troubleshoot
projectors, flat-panel displays, switchers, and other serially controlled products.
The IPL T S Series uses Extron's exclusive IP Link
®
technology, a high performance intelligent
network integration solution specifically engineered to meet the needs of professional
A/V environments, from large universities and businesses to small home installations. Multiple
Ethernet-enabled A/V products can be managed and supported using a networked computer
running Internet Explorer 6.0 or later.
E-mail Capabilities for Proactive Service
With e-mail notification, technical support administrators can receive failure and service
messages through an e-mail enabled cell phone, PDA, pager, or Internet e-mail account. For
secure installations that do not allow Internet access, online monitoring can still be performed
proactively. Within an existing secure infrastructure, e-mail notification of failures and repairs is
possible without compromising the security of the A/V systems and facility.
