The Extron Matrix 3200 Series Matrix Switchers are solutions for large scale routing applications that require up to 32 inputs and 32 outputs. With user-friendly control via the front panel, MKP 1000 remote keypad, or MCP 1000 Master Control Panel, the Matrix 3200 matrix switchers provide totally customizable and modular switching of composite video, S-video, component video, RGsB, RGBS, RGBHV, and one or two channel audio. With an RGB bandwidth of 430 MHz (-3dB) fully loaded, the Matrix 3200 Wideband Series can maintain the integrity of any routed signal.

The Matrix 3200 matrix switchers include configurations of wideband, low resolution video, sync, and stereo or mono audio models. Each model allows for 16x8 switching with the flexibility to upgrade to full 32x32 routing applications. With 64 BNC connectors on the rear panel and modular internal card slots ready to be filled as needed, the Matrix 3200 matrix switchers can grow to accommodate any system — even systems that are still expanding.

Rooming Presets and Virtualization
Using a feature called "rooming," each Matrix 3200 matrix switcher can be programmed to group multiple outputs to specific rooms, allowing them to have their own presets. Each room can consist of up to 16 signals and each matrix can support up to 10 rooms. A total of 100 room presets are available, providing added flexibility and convenience, particularly in systems where switching is required between several locations. Once a room has been configured and stored, it is switched independently of other rooms so that signals sent to one room will never walk in on another room.

Rooming is made possible by user-defined virtual maps, which ascribe "locality" to the physical inputs and outputs of the Matrix 3200 matrix switchers. Virtual mapping makes it possible to configure the switchers in unique ways, dictated by each virtual input/output , i.e., the assignment of each individual connector, and each group of connectors, called a virtual plane. The Extron virtualization/control software makes these configurations possible. The software easily translates the appropriate virtual map into the switcher's memory with minimal effort on the part of the installer.

Rooming presets go beyond normal matrix switching capabilities, which are offered with the Matrix 3200 matrix switchers as global presets. These global presets can be set to define configurations of specific inputs to any specific combination of outputs or to all outputs. Rooming presets and global presets can be programmed and recalled at the front panel or by remote.

FPC 1000, MKP 1000, and MCP 1000
With the Matrix 3200 Series control options, controlling any system is easy. RS-232 and RS-422 control and programming is easy and quick with Extron's SIS™ - Simple Instruction Set.
• Inputs: Video on female BNC connectors; audio on captive screw connectors
• Outputs: Video on female BNC connectors; audio on captive screw connectors
• 430 MHz (-3 dB) RGB video bandwidth, fully loaded (wideband models) — Ensures switching and distribution of signals without signal degradation. The 430 MHz (-3 dB) rating is a worst case specification, i.e., the Matrix 3200 matrix switchers provide 430 MHz (-3 dB) at full performance capacity when one input signal drives all outputs.
• 150 MHz (-3 dB) video bandwidth, fully loaded (low resolution models) — Ensures switching and distribution of signals without signal degradation. The 150 MHz (-3 dB) rating is a worst case specification, i.e., the Matrix 3200 matrix switchers provide 150 MHz (-3 dB) at full performance capacity when one input signal drives all outputs.
• Compatible with composite video, S-video, component video, HDTV, RGsB, RGBS, RGBHV, and/or balanced/unbalanced mono or stereo audio
• Field upgradeable and modular design — The Matrix 3200 matrix switchers provide the highest level of cost-effectiveness, flexibility, and expandability by allowing users to purchase only the modules required for their systems. Additional modules may be added at any time without having to send the unit back to the factory for expansion or application change.
• 100 rooming memory presets — Provides presets for up to 10 rooms for a total of up to 100 rooming presets for added flexibility and control in routing signals.
• Triple-Action Switching™ for RGB delay — The Matrix 3200 matrix switchers are capable of programmable RGB delay on every output. This allows for blanking of RGB signals when switching multiple inputs/outputs. When switching, all projectors/monitors will display black instead of a scrambled image.
• Easy-to-use FPC 1000 LCD Front Panel Controller — The FPC 1000 has a large LCD window that allows direct access and total control over all presets and switching functions. Menus in the FPC 1000 provide an intuitive interface for easy setup and programming.
• 32 global presets — The Matrix 3200 matrix switchers can be configured for several different applications without the need for changing the settings each time the application changes.
• Vertical interval switching — Enables smooth, seamless transitions when switching between inputs.
• Input and output connectors are clearly labeled — All connectors are clearly labeled for easy installation. With the Extron virtualization/control software, a visual map can be printed for easy representation of the virtual I/Os. This feature reduces the time required for setup and programming.
• RS-232 and RS-422 control port — Using serial commands, the Matrix 3200 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 — Extron has developed a Windows®- based software that provides the ability to mix and match inputs to outputs. This program, shipped with every Matrix 3200 matrix switcher, makes I/O configuration simple because it uses graphic icons and icon labeling capabilities. More importantly, the software also allows users to configure the switcher via an emulation mode even if the switcher is not available. Once the matrix is built with the software and the configuration is saved, the switcher is ready to operate.
• Optional control panels and keypads — Provide the flexibility to control a Matrix 3200 Series matrix switcher from a remote location.
• RGB and audio mute
• Balanced or unbalanced mono or stereo audio — The Matrix 3200 matrix switchers offer the flexibility for both balanced or unbalanced audio signals. Depending on the application and cable distance requirements, some systems will require balanced audio.
• Audio input gain and attenuation — The Matrix 3200 matrix switchers allow users to set the level of audio from front panel controls or RS-232 and RS-422, whether for gain or attenuation, -15 dB to +9 dB.
• Audio breakaway — With breakaway switching, the Matrix 3200 matrix switchers 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 can be operated as a separate audio matrix.
• Trouble status indication — The Matrix 3200 matrix switchers track status indicators at all times, and with the FPC 1000, the installer can monitor RS-232 and RS-422 communications from and to the unit. This saves valuable time in troubleshooting.
• Front panel security lockout — If a Matrix 3200 matrix switcher is installed in an unsecured environment, an optional password feature can be implemented. When this feature is in use, a password is required to operate the front panel controller.
• Rack-mountable metal enclosure — The Matrix 3200 matrix switchers are rack-mountable in any conventional 19-inch rack using included hardware.
• 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.
• Optional redundant power supply — An additional power supply may be internally mounted to give the Matrix 3200 matrix switchers a backup power supply. This feature may be necessary in critical applications where power reliability is a crucial factor.
