NOTE: The switchers can also distribute S-video and composite video with applicable
adapters.
The MVX switcher can be locally controlled from the front panel or remotely controlled
via its rear panel RS-232 serial port or an optional IR 501 Small Matrix Infrared (IR) Remote
Control (part number 70-336-01).
Features
Video — These switchers input and output VGA – UXGA RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, RsGsBs
video, or component/HDTV signals on 15-pin HD female connectors.
Bandwidth — Bandwidth is 300 MHz (–3 dB). This high bandwidth allows the switchers to
switch high resolution video with no loss of signal quality.
Audio input — These switchers input unbalanced stereo audio signals on 3.5 mm mini
jacks.
Audio output — These switchers output balanced or unbalanced stereo audio signals on
3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw terminals.
Audio input gain/attenuation — You can set the input audio gain or attenuation (–18 dB
to +10 dB) via the RS-232 port or from the front panel. Individual input audio levels can be
adjusted so there are no noticeable volume differences between sources and allows for the
best headroom and signal-to-noise ratio. This function also eliminates the need for separate
preamps or attenuators when used with professional (higher line level) and consumer (lower
line level) audio equipment.
Audio output level switch — The audio level of each output can be set to either –10 dBV
(consumer level) or +4 dBu (pro level) via RS-232 control only.
Audio follow — Audio can be switched with the corresponding video input. Audio follow
switching can be done via front panel control, optional IR 501 control, or the RS-232 port.
Audio breakaway — Audio can be broken away from its corresponding video input signal.
Audio breakaway switching can be done via front panel control, optional IR 501 control, or
the RS-232 port.
Switching flexibility — Provides individually buffered, independent matrix switched
outputs with audio follow and audio breakaway for audio versions.
• Any input to any or all outputs
• Quick multiple tie — Multiple inputs can be switched to multiple outputs
simultaneously. This allows all displays (outputs) to change from source to source at the
same time.
Operational flexibility — Operations such as input/output selection and setting of presets
can be performed on the front panel, via the RS-232 port, or using the optional IR 501 small
matrix universal remote control. The RS-232 port allows remote control via a PC or control
system.
• Front panel controller — The MVX series front panel controller feature supports
touch-of-a-button input and output selection, preset creation and selection, and audio
gain and attenuation control.
• RS-232 control — The RS-232 port of the switcher allows remote control via a PC or
control system using the Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) or the included Matrix
Switchers Control Program.
• Optional IR remote control — The MVX switchers are remote controllable, using the
optional IR 501 Small Matrix IR Remote Control.
