Vga/audio Matrix SwitcherS
MVX Plus 128 VGA A
12x8 VGA and Stereo Audio Matrix Switcher with ADSP
and IP Link
®
feAtureS
Inputs: VGA on female 15-pin HD connectors; audio on captive screw connectors
Outputs: Video on female 15-pin HD connectors; audio on captive screw connectors
300 MHz (-3 dB) RGB video bandwidth, fully loaded — Designed for routing
most common high resolution computer-video rates without signal degradation.
The MVX Plus 128 VGA A provides 300 MHz (-3dB) of RGB video bandwidth at full
performance capacity when one input signal drives all outputs.
ADSP
- Advanced Digital Sync Processing technology — An exclusive, all-digital
process that regenerates the sync signal waveform and restores sync level to 5.0 V p-p,
TTL specifications. This ensures a stable sync signal for improved signal compatibility
with any LCD, DLP, plasma, or other digital display device.
DSVP
- Digital Sync Validation Processing — Verifies active sources by polling
all inputs for valid sync signals. DSVP then transmits the horizontal and vertical sync
information to the user through the serial or IP Link ports.
RGBHV switching — Switches separate horizontal and vertical sync to ensure proper
sync polarity, providing a more stable image. Fully compatible with RGBS, RGsB, HDTV,
component video, S-video, and composite video signals.
Buffered I/O — Each input and output is individually buffered to provide maximum
performance and virtually no crosstalk or signal interference between channels.
Triple-Action Switching
for RGB Delay — Blanks the screen when switching to a
new source. The new sync signals precede the RGB signals, so there is no glitch shown
during the transition. The time delay between the RGB and sync signals is adjustable up
to five seconds through front panel, IP Link, or serial control.
Balanced and unbalanced audio — Balanced or unbalanced stereo audio signals are
output on captive screw connectors.
Audio input gain and attenuation — Allows users to set the level of gain or
attenuation for each audio input channel, eliminating noticeable volume differences
when switching between sources.
Audio breakaway — Provides the capability to break an audio signal away from its
corresponding video signal, allowing the audio and video signals from one source to be
switched to different destinations.
Audio output volume adjustment and muting — Can be set dynamically for each
channel through the front panel, IP Link, or serial control, eliminating the need for an
audio preamplifier in many system designs.
View I/O mode — Users can easily view which inputs and outputs are actively connected.
I/O grouping — Allows the matrix switcher to be virtually divided into smaller
sub-switchers, making installation and control easier. I/O grouping allows specific
outputs, like those designated for a specific video format, to be grouped together.
Rooming — The matrix switcher can be programmed to group-selected outputs into
specific "rooms," each with its own set of unique presets. A total of 10 presets each,
for up to 10 rooms, are available.
32 global presets — Frequently used I/O configurations may be saved and recalled
either from the QS-FPC
- QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller, IP Link, or serial control.
This time-saving feature allows I/O configurations to be set up and stored in memory for
future use.
QS-FPC
- QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller — Provides a discrete button for
each input and output, allowing for simple, intuitive operation.
Tri-color, backlit buttons can be custom labeled for easy identification — Can
be custom labeled for easy identification. The buttons illuminate red, green, or amber,
depending on function, for ease of use in low-light environments.
Front panel security lockout — Prevents unauthorized use in non-secure
environments. In lockout mode, a special button combination is required to operate the
switcher from the front panel controller.
IP Link
®
Ethernet monitoring and control — Engineered to meet the needs of
professional A/V environments, IP Link enables the to be proactively monitored and
managed over a LAN, WAN, or the Internet, using standard TCP/IP protocols. IP Link
provides for remote selection of input and output ties, adjustment and control of audio
input and output levels, and advanced system diagnostics.
IP Link enhanced diagnostics — Provides for monitoring of internal product operating
temperature and power supply voltages, e-mail notification of input signal loss, and
other critical service information.
RS-232 and RS-422 serial control port — Using serial commands, the
MVX Plus 128 VGA A can be controlled and configured via the included Windows-based
control software, or integrated into third-party control systems. Extron products use the
SIS
- Simple Instruction Set command protocol, a set of basic ASCII code commands
that allow for quick and easy programming. The RS-232 and RS-422 port also makes it
easy to install firmware updates.
Control software — Provides a graphical, drag-and-drop interface for I/O configuration
and other customization functions via RS-232 and RS-422 remote control. This software
also offers an emulation mode for configuration of an offsite matrix switcher; the I/O
configuration may be saved for future downloading to the matrix switcher.
Optional control panels and keypads — Provide
the flexibility to control a MVX Plus 128 VGA A matrix
switcher from a remote location.
Rack mountable — The MVX Plus 128 VGA A
is housed in a compact 2U, 19-inch wide, rack-
mountable metal enclosure.
Internal international power supply — The
100-240VAC, 50/60 Hz, universal power supply
provides worldwide power compatibility.
