Product Overview

Introduction

The Emerge® multipoint high-definition (HD)wired/wireless extender (MPX) system provides

wireless and wired connectivity for distribution of HD video content to one or more destinations.

The MPX extender system consists of transmitters, access points and receivers that form a

managed audio/video (A/V) extender network able to deliver a synchronized stream of HD video

and audio to as many as 64 display devices. Designed for professional A/V applications, the

MPX extender system features an integrated digital video interface (DVI-I) connector that

supports direct connection to HDMI, DVI-D, DVI-A, RGB and Component source and display

devices.

NOTE: References to "extender system"in this document refer to transmitters, receivers and access points

collectively.

The MPX 1550 transmitter combines Avocent’s field-proven MPX extender technology with

IEEE 802.11n MIMO-based radios to set the highest standard for wireless HD video distribution

in terms of visual acuity, transmission distance and noise immunity. The MPX 1450 transmitter

offers all the same capabilities and features of the MPX 1550 transmitter in hardwired

environments using the existing network infrastructure. All transmitter models support up to eight

receivers, and the MPX 1450 and MPX 1550 transmitters and receivers can also be expanded

using MPX access points to increase the number of displays for large-scale venues involving

multiple floors, departments or buildings such as universities, theme parks, hospitals and airports.

For ease of installation and configuration, Emerge MPX extender systems feature an on-board

web interface that also offers powerful diagnostic tools for local or remote management.

Features and Benefits

• Wired or wireless extender systems – Emerge MPX extender systems provide installation

flexibility for wireless (MPX 1550 extender system only) or wired high-definition

applications.

• Point-to-multipoint distribution – By adding MPX 1450 and 1550 access point expansion

units, an Emerge MPX extender system can be expanded to distribute HD video and audio

to as many as 64 display devices.

• Advanced encryption standard (AES) 128 bit encryption – A/V information is encrypted

with built-in AES for secure transmission.

• Small form factor – A smaller profile allows convenient installation and saves space where

it's needed the most.

• Dynamic binding - A transmitter can be configured to only allow specific receivers to

connect to it. Likewise, a receiver can be configured to only connect to a specific

transmitter. Specification is made using unique MAC addresses.

Video

Emerge MPX 1450/1550 transmitters and receivers feature a single DVI-I media port that

supports RGB, Component, DVI-A, DVI-D and HDMI video. Additional connectors are

provided for extension of serial and infrared (IR) data.

Audio

MPX extender systems support embedded HDMI digital audio and external analog audio via

white and red RCAconnectors.

Control

MPX extender systems allow both RS-232 and infrared control of source and display devices

and IR receiver and emitter capability. They support broadcast and bi-directional IR data

transfers for session control from the point of display or for display control from the location of

the source device; mini-jack cables allow IR blasters and receivers to be optimally placed. A

serial interface allows integration with third-party control systems.

Browser-based user interface

Browser-based configuration is available for MPX transmitters, access points and receivers. The

web interface allows local or remote control and configuration of the system without special

software tools. Through the web interface, you can configure system, network, source device

and display device settings; display hardware and firmware versions, connection status and

signal strength; update firmware; reboot the system; reset to factory defaults; and change your

password.

The MPX 1450 extender system versus the MPX 1550 extender system

The MPX 1550 extender system offers a wired or wireless solution for HD video distribution. It

features a default omni antenna with a signal strength of up to 150 feet through three interior

walls or 300 feet line of sight. The MPX 1450 extender system offers all the same capabilities

and features of the MPX 1550 extender system in hardwired environments using the existing

network infrastructure. Both the MPX 1450 and MPX 1550 extender systems have a wired

maximum video bit rate of 80 Mbps and the MPX 1550 extender system has a wireless

maximum video bit rate of 50 Mbps (1-to-many) or 110 Mbps (1-to-1). All transmitter models

support up to eight receivers, and the number of displays can be expanded using MPX

1450/1550AP access point expansion units.

Hardware Overview

MPX 1450/1550 transmitter

The transmitter digitally-encodes, compresses, encrypts and sends media signals from a source

device to a group of bound receivers.

NOTE: See "System Definitions" on page 64 for a list of common components.

The front panel of the MPX 1450/1550 transmitter and receivers are identical. The MPX 1550

units are shown as examples; the MPX 1450 units have no antennas because they are wired-

only.
