| The Extron IPCP Pro 250 is a
versatile, high-performance control processor designed for
centralized AV control in small to medium-size applications. As
part of the new IP Link® Pro Series, the IPCP Pro 250 is
engineered to be faster and more secure in almost every way. It
features advanced security standards and Gigabit Ethernet, which
ensures compatibility with multiple TouchLink® Pro touchpanels
using today’s network infrastructure. It also supports Extron
LinkLicense™ which enables the use of third party devices as
primary control interfaces. The IPCP Pro 250 is an ideal choice for
controlling multiple devices and signal types within an AV
system.. |
• Supports
TouchLink® Pro touchpanels
• Supports secure industry standard communications protocols
— All IP Link Pro models use industry standard communication
protocols, including HTTP (insecure), HTTPS, SSH, SFTP, SMTP, NTP,
Discovery Service, DHCP, DNS, ICMP, and IPv4.
• Supports LinkLicense — Enables the use of third party
devices as primary control interfaces.
• One bidirectional RS-232 serial port with software
handshaking — Captive screw serial ports that can control one
RS-232 devices.
• One bidirectional RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 serial port with
hardware and software handshaking — Captive screw serial port
that can communicate with one RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 serially
controlled device.
• One IR/Serial port for one-way control of external
devices
• Four Digital I/O ports — Allows for interfacing with
other systems in the room.
• Two relays for controlling room functions — Enables
control of lighting, screen settings, and other device
functions.
• Supports 10/100/1000Base-T
• Supports popular BMS – Building Management System
protocols, such as BACnet, KNX, and DALI — These protocols
allow for centralized monitoring and control of mechanical and
electrical systems that include HVAC, lighting, power, fire, and
security.
• Ethernet monitoring and control — Manage, monitor,
and control AV devices using a standard Ethernet network.
• Remote volume control port for the Extron MPA Series and
select XTRA™ Series amplifiers
•Supports Ethernet-controllable devices — Allows for
control of multiple Ethernet-enabled AV devices such as displays,
switchers, and sources.
• Integrated IR Learning capability — Captures IR
remote codes from a device’s handheld remote control.
• Automatic clock synchronization allows touchpanel to
display the accurate time and date
• Supports control system synchronization —
Synchronization will allow users to retain and recover the state of
their configured endpoints in case of network or power failure.
• Front panel port status indicators
• Multi-level password protection — Allows security to
be set based on user roles.
• Fully customizable using Extron control system software
— GUI Designer combined with Global Configurator Plus or
Global Configurator Professional.
• Library of enhanced Extron Certified device drivers —
Device drivers allow Extron products to control various display and
source devices, such as projectors, flat-panel displays, and
Blu-ray players. Extron has produced fully tested Ethernet, serial,
and IR device drivers.
• 1U, quarter rack width metal enclosure
• Highly reliable, energy-efficient external universal power
