The Extron MAV Plus Series of A/V Matrix Switchers is designed to suit the requirements of
virtually any video or audio switching system. Available in sizes from 8x8 to 64x64, MAV Plus
Series matrix switchers accommodate HDTV, component video, S-video (Y/C), and composite
video signals, with or without audio signals. The MAV Plus Series also includes a complete line
of mono and stereo audio matrix switchers, capable of switching both balanced and unbalanced
audio signals.
The MAV Plus Series builds on Extron's popular compact MAV Series of Composite Video
and S-Video matrix switchers. MAV Plus Series models accommodate HDTV or component
video, and S-video in Y/C configuration, as well as composite video and mono or stereo
audio. The series also offers additional I/O sizes up to 64x64. An expanded feature set for
the MAV Plus Series includes IP Link
®
Ethernet monitoring and control technology, a new,
enhanced QS-FPC
- QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller with tri-color, backlit buttons, and
audio output volume control. For larger, more complex system designs requiring additional
inputs and outputs, or for systems routing high definition video signals, the MAV Plus Series
has the features and capabilities to streamline integration and operations in any A/V signal
routing environment. MAV Plus Series matrix switchers are ideal for a very broad range of video
and audio routing applications, including command and control centers, university classroom
buildings, conference centers, and auditoriums, large residential entertainment systems, and
many other high-level A/V system designs.
Video Features
All MAV Plus Series switchers feature 150 MHz (-3 dB) video bandwidth, ensuring superb
signal quality in even the most complex video system designs. MAV Plus Series switchers
are quad standard for worldwide compatibility and also feature video genlock and vertical
interval switching for smooth, seamless transitions when switching between synchronous
video sources.
Audio Features
The MAV Plus Series includes matrix switchers in sizes up to 64x64 that are capable of
switching balanced or unbalanced mono or stereo audio signals. All audio-capable models
support both Audio Follow and Audio Breakaway modes. Full adjustment of both audio input
gain and attenuation, and audio output volume and muting, is available at the front panel
or through IP Link or serial control. The advanced audio capabilities of the MAV Plus Series
facilitate system integration by reducing gain-staging effects and can eliminate the need for
audio preamplifiers in many system designs.
Control Features
Each of the MAV Plus Series models comes standard with backlit I/O selection buttons
utilizing Extron's QS-FPC - QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller, which allows for simple,
touch-of-a-button input and output selection directly from the front panel. In addition, the
MAV Plus Series features RS-232 and RS-422 serial control capability, as well as Extron's
exclusive IP Link Ethernet monitoring and control.
IP Link Ethernet Control
The MAV Plus Series is equipped with Extron's IP Link, an IP integration technology specifically
engineered to meet the needs of professional A/V environments — from K-12 classrooms to
large universities, businesses, and residential media systems.
IP Link is built around an integrated, high performance Web server that features global
compatibility with industry standard Ethernet communication protocols, multi-user support,
and GlobalViewer
software. GlobalViewer, a Web-based application, enables a variety of asset
management functions including proactive maintenance and remote technical support from any
administrator authorized LAN, WAN, or Internet client.
On the MAV Plus Series, IP Link provides technical support personnel with the ability to receive
service and failure messages through an e-mail-enabled cell phone, PDA, pager, or e-mail
account. Utilizing IP Link, the help desk can also view embedded Web pages to manage,
monitor, and troubleshoot the switcher for the following:
Asset Management
Remotely select input and output ties for audio only, video only, or audio and video
Name and select global I/O presets
Set audio input and output volume levels
Operating Status and Diagnostics
Monitor primary and redundant power supply voltages
Monitor internal product operating temperature
Recall firmware revision and other data for improved Help Desk support
Obtain immediate notification via e-mail for critical service information
Upload firmware updates
