The Extron MTPX Plus 6400 Series represents the next level of large-scale twisted pair matrix switching, building on the success of the MTPX Plus Series product line. The MTPX Plus 6400 Series simplifies the design and integration of complex twisted pair matrix switching systems by offering advanced, integration-friendly features that dramatically reduce costs associated with rack space, cabling, and installation. The MTPX Plus 6400 Series is available in five different I/O sizes, from 48x48 to 64x64. In addition to offering all of the same features found in the MTPX Plus Series, the MTPX Plus 6400 Series provides EDID Minder® for local inputs and outputs, RS-232 insertion from the Ethernet port to individual or all MTP outputs, and switchable video pre-peaking on all outputs.

When paired with Extron MTP U Series Universal Transmitter and Receivers, MTPX Plus Series Twisted Pair Matrix Switchers allow VGA, component video, S-video, and composite video, 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 of the MTPX Plus 6400 Series include dynamic skew equalization to maintain RGB color alignment at all times, video level and peaking compensation for brighter and sharper images, local RS-232 insertion ports to eliminate the need for control system wiring to remote displays, local high resolution video inputs and outputs to eliminate the need for additional transmitters and receivers, and local audio output volume adjustment and muting without the need for preamplifiers in many AV systems.

Dynamic Skew Equalization

Dynamic skew equalization on all inputs and outputs ensures that CAT 5-type cable skew is eliminated, regardless of the combination of input/output cable lengths selected. This feature enables the necessary skew compensation to be configured during installation for each input/output combination. These configurations are then stored in memory and applied automatically during operation. Since the skew compensation is in the matrix switcher, skew compensation is not required in the receivers.

RS-232 Insertion From Ethernet Port to All MTP Outputs

RS-232 via the Ethernet port allows direct insertion of bidirectional serial control to individual or multiple MTP outputs.This feature simplifies control since a single communication port can control multiple remote displays. It also reduces cabling, installation time and cost, and control system RS-232 communication port requirements.

EDID Minder®

The MTPX Plus 6400 Series features EDID Minder®, a selectable feature that enables automatic and continuous management of the EDID information between the local input sources and the local displays. EDID Minder® automatically captures and stores EDID information from the display. It also can generate emulated EDID data to match the native resolution of the display. By maintaining continuous EDID communication with all local sources, EDID Minder® ensures that the source powers up properly and reliably outputs content to the display.

Switchable Video Pre-Peaking on All Outputs

To provide additional compensation for optimal performance on the longest cable runs, the MTPX Plus 6400 Series offers switchable video pre-peaking on all outputs. This ensures the highest quality signal at the display.

Local High Resolution Video Inputs and Outputs

Local high resolution video inputs and outputs enable direct connection of equipment located in the same rack as the switcher, greatly reducing system complexity by eliminating the need for additional transmitters and receivers. The result is significant cost savings on rack space, equipment, cabling, and power requirements.

Hot Swappable and Redundant Power Supplies

The MTPX Plus 6400 Series is designed for optimum performance and reliability in mission-critical applications requiring continuous operation 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It is hot swappable so that the matrix switcher can be serviced or reconfigured without powering down the unit and interrupting all signal routing. It includes two AC power inputs for added power reliability.

Features

Available in five different I/O sizes, from 48x48 to 64x64

Dynamic skew equalization — Adjustments are stored in memory for each input and output, maintaining RGB color alignment at all times.

RS-232 insertion from the Ethernet port to individual or all MTP outputs — Allows direct insertion of bidirectional serial control to multiple or individual MTP outputs.

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 Series twisted pair 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.

Hot-swappable primary and redundant power supplies — Ensure reliable system operation and maximizes system operating time.

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 MTPX Plus 6400 Series provides two AC power inputs for continuous connection to both power sources.

Enhanced QS-FPC™ - QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller — A separate button for each input and output, enables simple, intuitive operation.

Front panel configuration port — For convenient configuration access after installation is complete.

Ethernet monitoring and control — Enables Web-based remote management, monitoring, and control.

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.

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.

View I/O mode — Easily view which inputs and outputs are actively connected.

Global presets — Frequently used I/O configurations may be saved and recalled either from the front panel, Ethernet, or serial control. This time-saving feature allows I/O configurations to be set up and stored 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 and RS-422 control port — Enables switcher control and configuration via the Extron Windows-based control program, or integration into a control system.

Rack-mountable metal enclosure — All MTPX Plus 6400 Series twisted pair matrix switchers are in a 10U, full rack-width metal enclosure.

Includes MTP Signal Generator, part # 70-729-01 — Used for automatic set-up of input level/peaking and skew adjustments to ensure optimal system performance.
