Extron MTPX Plus 128 12x8 MTP Twisted Pair Matrix Switcher for RGBHV, Video, Audio, and RS-232 |
Product Code: MTPXPLUS128
|
The Extron MTPX Plus 128 Twisted Pair Matrix Switcher represents the next generation of twisted pair integration. Local video and audio inputs and outputs enable direct connection of equipment that is located within the same rack as
the MTPX 128 matrix, greatly reducing system complexity by eliminating additional MTP transmitters and receivers. The MTPX Plus 128 is a 1U high, full rack width MTP Twisted Pair Matrix Switcher with 12 inputs and 8 outputs, RS-232
insertion ports, and IP Link. In addition to offering all of the same features found in the MTPX Plus Series, the MTPX Plus 128 provides EDID Minder® for local inputs and outputs, RS-232 insertion ports for all outputs, switchable video
pre-peaking on all outputs, and a front panel mini USB port for configuration and setup.
When paired with Extron MTP U Series Universal Transmitter and Receivers, MTPX Plus Series Twisted Pair Matrix Switchers allow composite video, S-video, and VGA, along with audio or RS-232 control signals, to be sent over a single CAT
5-type cable and output on the appropriate connector at the display. Using one cable for all signal types simplifies system wiring and requires only a single matrix switcher output and MTP U R Series receiver per display.
Additional features include dynamic skew equalization, video level and peaking compensation, audio input gain and attenuation to balance audio levels, and output volume control for the local outputs. The powerful feature set in the
MTPX Plus 128 Twisted Pair Matrix Switcher enables integrators to greatly reduce installation time and costs associated with rack space, cabling, and installation, when compared to traditional twisted pair matrix switching. |
• 4 local inputs plus 8x8 MTP matrix switcher
• Dynamic skew equalization — Adjustments are stored in memory for each input and output, maintaining RGB color alignment at all times.
• Local RS-232 insertion ports — RS-232 input ports eliminate the need for control system wiring to remote displays
• EDID Minder® automatically manages EDID communication between connected devices — EDID Minder ensures that all sources power up properly and reliably output content for display.
• Video level and peaking compensation — Actively compensates for input signal attenuation for various cable lengths, resulting in a brighter and sharper image.
• Local high resolution video inputs and outputs — Accept input from local video sources without the need for additional transmitters and receivers.
• Switchable video pre-peaking on all outputs — Provides additional compensation for optimal performance on the longest cable runs.
• Compatible with Extron MTP products — Works with all MTP Series transmitters and receivers, including the MTP U T A D Universal Transmitter and MTP U R Series Universal Twisted Pair Receivers
• Local audio output volume adjustment and muting — Eliminates the need for preamplifiers in many AV systems.
• Local audio inputs and outputs — Support stereo audio sources and output unbalanced line level mono audio for processing or distribution.
• Audio input gain and attenuation — Eliminates noticeable differences in volume when switching between sources.
• Ethernet monitoring and control — Enables Web-based remote management, monitoring, and control.
• Enhanced QS-FPC™ - QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller — A separate button for each input and output, enables simple, intuitive operation.
• Tri-color, backlit buttons accept custom window labels — Clear plastic backlit buttons can be custom-labeled for easy identification. Buttons illuminate red, green, or amber, depending on function, for ease-of-use in low-light environments.
• Front panel security lockout — Restricts access in unsecured environments.
• View I/O mode — Easily view which inputs and outputs are actively connected.
• Global presets — Allow you to set up I/O configurations and store them in memory for future use.
• I/O grouping — Allows the matrix switcher to be virtually divided into smaller sub-switchers.
• Rooming — All models can be programmed to group selected outputs into specific "rooms," each with its own set of unique presets.
• RS-232 control port — Enables switcher control and configuration via the Extron Windows-based control program, or integration into a control system.
• Front panel configuration port — For convenient configuration access after installation is complete.
• Rack-mountable metal enclosure — All MTPX Plus Series twisted pair matrix switchers are housed in either 1U, 2U, or 3U, full rack-width metal enclosures.
• 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 MTP Signal Generator, 70-729-01 — Used for automatic set-up of level and peaking to ensure optimal system performance |
