Description

MX2M-FR24R-F is a member of the Lightware MX2 modular matrix switcher series, supporting uncompromised 4K UHD resolution at 60Hz with 4:4:4 sampling pattern and with downconversion capabilities to 4:2:2, supporting HDCP 1.x and 2.3, 3D, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. The non-blocking matrix architecture distributes and switches 24 video signals to 24 outputs, distributed along six 4-port boards respectively per direction.

This versatile and customizable device is suitable for various types of applications, the actual application determining the choice of input and output boards to be included in the frame. It is a perfect choice for installations where a huge number of HDMI 2.0 compliant and other types of input and output video ports are required, including HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.2, HDBaseTTM and compressed AV-Over-IP standards, as well as extension through fibre.

Besides the six 4-port input and six 4-port output video boards, there are four low speed installable slots for Dante, ADC and DAC audio input and output boards, GPIO, USB and other connectivity options.

Control for connected extenders is served by Ethernet layer. The Ethernet layer can also be used for IP extension, as well as for command injection for IR and serial control by third party devices.

For operation safety power redundancy is available, and PSU drawers are field-exchangeable for ease of maintenance. The device also supports various IT security standards.

Upon installing a second power supply unit for the MX2M-FR24R matrix frame, in order to unlock the possibility for redundant operation users need to upgrade the device’s firmware by purchasing the Redundancy Upgrade.

For users who purchased their device with two PSU drawers and only looking to get additional PSU drawers as a spare or backup do not need to perform the firmware upgrade as their device is fully power redundancy capable by default.

Features

Six slots for 4-port video input boards, six slots for 4-port video output boards and additional four slots for low-speed (audio, GPIO, etc) IO boards
Audio layer for independent audio routing of uncompressed (e.g. 7.1 LPCM) and compressed
HBR audio signals received and extracted by the video IO boards or via low-speed audio IO boards
IT security features e.g. LDAP and AD integration, SSH, HTTPS for control, etc.
Flexible design with support for hot-swappable IO boards
Connectivity for breakout boxes that can accommodate additional low-speed IO boards
HDCP 2.2 and HDCP 1.4 compliant with cross conversion capabilities
Device control via Ethernet (TCP/IP)
Supports HDMI 4K signal formats (4K UHD @60Hz RGB 4:4:4, up to 18 Gbps)
HDR and Dolby Vision support
Redundant power supplies available
