Extron SMX 400 Frame (60-856-01)
4U Modular Multi-Plane Matrix Switcher mount for SMX series modules
The SMX System MultiMatrix Series of multi-plane matrix switchers combines multiple, independent analog and digital matrix switchers in a truly modular, field-configurable frame. SMX frames are available in sizes up to 5U, capable of supporting up to 10 separate matrix boards which can be switched independently or simultaneously, all under a single point of control. The SMX combines the proven reliability and high performance of Extron's popular CrossPoint, MAV Plus, HDXP Plus, and MVX Series matrix switchers with the efficiency of a modular matrix switcher design. The SMX System is an ideal choice for medical imaging systems, conference and training facilities, and other mid-sized applications that require the switching of different signal types and a cost-effective upgrade path for ongoing I/O or signal format changes.
Extron SMX 400 Frame Key Features
- Choice of 3U, 4U, or 5U frames - Three frames provide six, eight, or ten matrix board slots, respectively.
- Choose from analog, wideband, digital, and stereo audio matrix boards - A full range of matrix boards is available for the SMX System MultiMatrix in I/O sizes of 4x4, 4x8, 8x4, 8x8, and 16x16.
- Single point of control for up to 10 separate switching planes - Up to 10 matrix boards can be installed in an SMX frame and controlled from a single SMX front panel controller or control port.
- Hot-swappable matrix board slots allow installation and replacement of matrix boards in three easy steps.
- Field re-configurable and updateable.
- Enhanced QS-FPC - QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller - Provides a discrete, backlit button for each input and output, allowing for simple, intuitive operation.
- Global presets - Frequently used I/O configurations may be saved and recalled either from the QS-FPC - QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller, IP Link, or serial control.
- 10 presets per switching plane.
- Front panel security lockout.
- Virtual Plane Grouping - Switching planes can be grouped together to make a single, virtual switching plane. Plane grouping allows several signal planes to act as a single unit with a single control command affecting all planes.
- RS-232 and RS-422 serial control port.
- Front panel configuration port - A 2.5mm mini jack is available for set-up and configuring the SMX without having to access the unit from behind the rack.
- Control software - Provides a graphical, drag-and-drop interface for I/O configuration and other customization functions via RS-232 and RS-422 remote control.
- IP Link Ethernet monitoring and control - Engineered to meet the needs of professional A/V environments, IP Link enables the SMX System MultiMatrix to be proactively monitored and managed over a LAN, WAN, or the Internet, using standard TCP/IP protocols.
- Rack-mountable.
