The Extron Matrix 12800
Series Matrix Switchers are
the solution for very
large-scale analog routing
applications that require up
to 128 inputs and 128
outputs. A matrix switcher
is the most important asset
in a centralized AV
switching environment. The
cost-effective Matrix 12800
provides the performance,
reliability, expandability,
redundancy, and
serviceability crucial to
any mission-critical
environment.
With convenient control via
the FPC 5000 front panel
controller, MKP 1200 remote
keypad, MCP 1000 Master
Control Panel, or RS-232 and
RS-422 control, the Matrix
12800 will fit within any
system design. The Matrix
12800 wideband provides
modular switching of RGBHV,
RGBS, RsGsBs, RGsB,
component video, S-video,
composite video, and/or two
channel stereo audio. With
video bandwidth of 150 MHz
or 375 MHz (-3 dB) when
fully loaded, the Matrix
12800 maintains the
integrity of any routed
signal.
The Matrix 12800 Series
includes video, wideband,
sync, and audio models. A
minimum 32x16 configuration
is provided for lowband,
wideband, and sync frames,
and a minimum 16x16
configuration is provided
for audio. Each model
includes the flexibility to
upgrade to 128x128. Internal
cards are hot swappable, so
there is no need to power
down the matrix switcher
during field upgrades or
expansion. A full complement
of BNC connectors on the
rear panel and modular
internal card slots are
ready to be filled as
needed, ensuring that the
Matrix 12800 matrix
switchers can grow to
accommodate any system —
even systems that are still
expanding. From the start,
Extron offers service and
support for the planning,
installation, maintenance,
as well as expansion of any
Matrix 12800 system. |
• Inputs: Video on female
BNC connectors; audio on
captive screw connectors
• Outputs: Video on female
BNC connectors; audio on
captive screw connectors
• 375 MHz (-3 dB) RGB video
bandwidth, fully loaded -
wideband models — Ensures
switching and distribution
of signals without signal
degradation. The 375 MHz
(-3dB) rating is a worst
case specification, i.e.,
the Matrix 12800 provides
375 MHz (-3dB) at full
performance capacity when
one input signal drives all
outputs.
• 150 MHz (-3 dB) video
bandwidth, fully loaded -
low resolution models — For
lower resolution video
signals where high bandwidth
is not required, such as
composite video, S-video,
and component video systems.
• Compatible with composite
video, S-video, component
video, HDTV, RGsB, RGBS,
RGBHV, and/or
balanced/unbalanced mono or
stereo audio
• Field-upgradeable and
hot-swappable, modular
design — The Matrix 12800
provides the highest level
of flexibility,
expandability, and
affordability by allowing
users to purchase only the
modules required for their
systems. Additional input
and output cards may be
added at any time through
the front panel for easy and
quick upgradeability or
expansion. Hot swappable
components allow the user to
replace any part at any
time—no need to power down
the switcher. This is
especially useful for
crucial applications that
require continuous operation
of the Matrix 12800.
• Advanced computer-aided
diagnostics — Provides
24-hour self-diagnostics of
input/output boards, primary
and redundant power supply
voltages, controllers,
cooling status, and overall
functional status of the
matrix. Using an RS-232 or
RS-422 communications port,
status monitoring is
possible for off-site or
unmanned locations, such as
telco, government, military,
or any other sensitive, 24
hours a day, 7 days a week
environments.
• Triple-Action Switching™
for RGB delay — The Matrix
12800 is capable of
programmable RGB delay on
every output. RGB delay
blanks the screen when the
matrix switcher switches 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 user adjustable
up to five seconds.
• Easy maintenance and
serviceability for low
mean-time to repair — With
the front panel allowing
full accessibility to the
internal workings and
modular assemblies, the
basic architecture of the
matrix allows for easy
maintenance and
serviceability, as well as
low mean-time to repair.
• Dual, fully redundant, and
hot-swappable power supplies
and cooling fans — Primary
and back-up controllers,
power supplies, and cooling
fans provide added
reliability for critical
applications. The optional
redundant controller
provides mirrored memory,
CPU and auto-failover
capabilities, and a
secondary RS-232 port,
enabling a redundant third
party control system to
communicate with the matrix
system. It also provides an
increased level of
reliability by adding an
additional controller that
assumes management of the
matrix system if a primary
controller failure should
occur.
• DSVP™ - Digital Sync
Validation Processing —
Extron's exclusive DSVP
verifies active sources by
scanning all inputs for
active sync signals. DSVP
then transmits the
horizontal and vertical scan
rate information to the user
via any type of control
system using RS-232 and
RS-422 commands.
• Excellent
channel-to-channel isolation
— The Matrix 12800 provides
excellent isolation between
channels and extremely low
electromagnetic emissions
perfect for minimizing
signal leakage in high
security or government
environments.
• Rooming and presets — The
Matrix 12800 can be
configured for several
different applications
without the need to change
the settings each time the
application changes.
• Vertical interval
switching — Enables smooth,
seamless transitions when
switching between inputs.
• Two AC power inputs — For
added power reliability,
some 24-hour environments
require two separate AC
power sources, one as the
primary source and the
second for redundancy. The
Matrix 12800 Series provides
two AC power inputs for
continuous connection to
both power sources.
• RS-232 and RS-422 control
port — Using serial
commands, the Matrix 12800
Series can be controlled and
configured via the included
Windows-based control
software, or integrated into
a control system. Extron
products use the SIS™ -
Simple Instruction Set
command protocol, a set of
basic ASCII code commands
that allow for quick and
easy programming.
• Extron
virtualization/control
software — For serial or
Ethernet remote control from
a PC, Extron ships our
Windows®-based control
software with every matrix
switcher. This icon-driven
software uses a graphical,
drag-and-drop interface to
make I/O configuration and
other customization
functions simple and
convenient. This software
also offers an emulation
mode for configuration of an
offsite matrix switcher; the
I/O configuration may then
be saved for future
downloading to the matrix
switcher.
• Optional FPC 5000 LCD
Front Panel Controller
• Optional control panels
and keypads — Provide the
flexibility to control a
Matrix 12800 Series matrix
switcher from a remote
location.
• Balanced or unbalanced
audio — The Matrix 12800
switches both balanced or
unbalanced mono or stereo
audio signals. Depending on
the application and cable
distance requirements, some
systems will require
balanced audio.
• Audio input gain and
attenuation — The Matrix
12800 allows users to set
the gain/attenuation level
from the front panel or
RS-232 and RS-422.
Individual input audio
levels may be adjusted so
there are no noticeable
volume differences between
sources.
• Audio breakaway — With
breakaway switching, the
Matrix 12800 can separate
the audio signal from the
video signal to switch
either video only or audio
only. The breakaway feature
allows audio follow on any
one or all channels, or the
audio inputs and outputs can
be operated as a separate
audio matrix.
• Trouble status indication
— The SmartControl
microprocessor within the
CPU of the Matrix 12800 acts
as a status indicator at all
times.
• Ethernet monitoring and
control — Specifically
engineered to meet the needs
of professional AV
environments, which enables
the Matrix 12800 to be
controlled and proactively
monitored over a LAN, WAN,
or the Internet. An
intuitive Web interface is
also included for such
common functions as I/O
switching, system control,
and online diagnostics and
monitoring.
• Rack-mountable enclosure
• Highly reliable,
energy-efficient internal
universal power supply — The
100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz,
international power supply
provides worldwide power
compatibility with high
demonstrated reliability. |
