The Extron IPL T SFI244 is a
compact IP Link® control processor with an integrated high
performance Web server, two RS-232 ports, four Flex I/O ports, four
IR ports, and an IR Learner. The IPL T SFI244 is designed to
integrate IP - Internet Protocol connectivity into AV systems,
giving users the ability to remotely and proactively monitor and
troubleshoot projectors, flat-panel displays, switchers, and other
products. |
• Ethernet
monitoring and control
• Supports TouchLink® touchpanels
• Two bidirectional RS-232 serial ports — For remotely
and proactively monitoring and troubleshooting projectors,
flat-panel displays, switchers, and other serially controlled
devices.
• Four IR ports — Allow users to control professional
and consumer devices that are controllable only through IR, such as
DVD players.
• Four Flex I/O ports — Can be configured as analog
inputs, digital inputs, or digital outputs and can interface with a
variety of devices such as sensors, switches, LEDs, and relays.
• Serial port pass-through — Enables commands to be
passed through from one serial port to another to control a single
device.
• Supports Ethernet-controllable devices — Allows for
control of up to six Ethernet-enabled AV devices such as displays,
switchers, and sources
• Free Global Configurator, easy-to-use configuration
software — Global Configurator software, a Windows®
based configuration software, makes product setup simple and
intuitive – no programming knowledge is required.
• Extensive library of Extron Certified device drivers
— Device drivers allow Extron products to control various
display and source devices, such as projectors, flat-panel
displays, and DVD players. Extron has produced thousands of fully
tested and uniformly modeled RS-232 and IR device drivers.
• Integrated IR learner — For capturing IR remote codes
from a device's handheld remote control.
• Integrated high performance Web server — Each IP Link
control processor features a built-in Web server with memory
available for storing device drivers, GlobalViewer, and custom user
Web pages.
• Supports industry standard communications protocols —
All IP Link models use industry standard communication protocols,
including ARP, ICMP, IP, TCP, UDP, DHCP, HTTP, SMTP, and
Telnet.
• E-mail notification enables proactive support —
Technical support administrators and others can receive failure and
service messages through an e-mail enabled cell phone, PDA, pager,
or Internet e-mail account.
• Multiple levels of access with password protection —
User access level authorizes limited entry to only pre-designated
functions, while administrator access level permits full access to
advanced settings.
• Free GlobalViewer®, Web-based AV resource management
application — When used with GlobalViewer, IP Link control
processors provide a powerful, flexible way to manage, monitor, and
control both Extron and third-party equipment like projectors,
plasmas, monitors, VCRs, DVD players, and other devices using a
standard TCP/IP network.
• Internal real-time clock — Programmable operating
alerts, sequencing, and automatic monitoring, together with the
real-time clock and calendar, allow IP Link control processors to
routinely check configured devices.
• 7.25 MB of available flash memory
• Simultaneous multi-user support — Each IP Link device
supports multiple concurrent users, improving system
throughput.
• Plenum rated - meets UL 2043 for heat and smoke release,
excluding power supply
• Highly reliable, energy-efficient external universal power
