1. Introduction
1.1. About MMX6464
MMX6464 is a high-performance video and audio modular matrix switcher supporting
max 64 input signal sources and 64 output display synchronously. It supports different
video signals with cross switching. Every video or audio signal is transmitted and
switched independently to decrease signal attenuation. MMX6464 supports various
changeable cards including HMDI, DVI, VGA, SDI and HDBaseT etc, and all the cards
support hot plug & play. Users can choose to insert different signal card for different
application.
MMX6464 have power fail memory function and audio can break away from or follow
the video to switch. It has RS232 port for serial control and optional IP port for TCP/IP
control, can be easily controlled by third-part devices.
With its flexible design, MMX6464 can be used for different project and tend to be an
all-in-one solution. It is the combo solution for multimedia conference rooms, control
rooms, broadcasting rooms, shopping center etc. It will handle all the audiovisual
management, including the switching, driving, scaling etc.
1.2. Features
