MMX 32 AAP
control software, or integrated into third-party control systems.
Extron products use the Simple Instruction Set (SIS
) command
protocol, a set of basic ASCII code commands that allow for quick
and easy programming. The RS-232 port also makes it easy to
install firmware updates.
n Contact closure remote control with tally output status – Allows
for remote selection of an input channel, while a tally output status
provides feedback to indicate which input is currently selected.
n Optional MMX 32 AAP and MMX 32 MAAP remote control
modules – Optional control modules provide remote input
selection per output. The MMX 32 AAP is a single space
Architectural Adapter Plate (AAP), while the MMX 32 MAAP is a
single space Mini Architectural Adapter Plate (MAAP). Both include
three input selection buttons with corresponding LED indicators.
n Front panel security lockout – Prevents unauthorized use in non-
secure environments.
n Downloadable firmware updates – Updates can be easily
upgraded via RS-232.
n Rack-mountable – 1U, half rack width metal enclosure can be
rack-mounted using an optional rack shelf.
n External international power supply – Provides worldwide power
compatibility (part # 70-055-01).

The Extron MMX VGA Series of three input, two output matrix
switchers is designed for a variety of small system computer-video
and stereo audio signal routing applications, such as classrooms
and training facilities, and conference rooms. Both matrix switchers
include one RGBHV video output on a 15-pin HD connector and a
second output in two variations. The MMX 32 VGA A features its
second RGBHV output on five BNC connectors; the
MMX 32 VGA MTP is equipped with a built-in Extron MTP Series
twisted pair transmitter for outputting RGBHV and summed mono
(L+R) audio signals. The transmitter is capable of driving UXGA
(1600x1200) resolution computer-video signals 300 feet (90 m) or
more over a single UTP cable.
Both models are compatible with high resolution computer-video
signals, as well as HDTV signals with bi-level or tri-level sync,
component video, S-video, composite video, and stereo audio signals.
MMX Series matrix switchers can be controlled via the front panel,
through RS-232, or by contact closure with the optional MMX 32 AAP
and MMX 32 MAAP control modules.
FEATURES
n 300 MHz (-3 dB) RGB bandwidth – Ensures switching and
distribution of most signals without degradation. The ratings are
worst-case specifications, i.e., the MMX Series provides 300 MHz
(-3 dB) at full performance capacity – when one input signal drives
all outputs.
n Buffered I/O – Each input and output is individually buffered to
provide maximum performance with virtually no crosstalk.
n Built-in UTP transmitter (MMX 32 VGA MTP only) – Capable
of driving UXGA (1600x1200) resolution computer-video and
audio signals 300 feet (90 m) or more to a compatible MTP Series
receiver.
n Selectable pre-peaking (MMX 32 VGA MTP only) – Provides
additional compensation at the front end for the longest cable
runs.
n Audio breakaway via RS-232 – Provides the capability to break an
audio signal away from its corresponding video signal, allowing the
audio signals to be operated as a separate matrix switcher.
n RS-232 control port – Using RS-232 serial commands, the unit can
be controlled and configured via the included Windows
