INTRODUCTION
The MXWall-LT is an enhanced and fully scalable video wall controller. The MXWall-LT combines switching
with the high definition capabilities of a converter. Specifically designed and optimized for the most de-
manding environments and applications, the MXWall-LT lets users manage and route up to 12 HDMI or
