This AVPro Edge AC-CX-84 ConferX 4K 8x4 Matrix Switcher with Instant Switching has received a technology-focused upgrade that provides new features that will please any commercial integrator. An input array of eight sources (two HDBaseT and six HDMI) can be matrixed simultaneously through two HDBaseT and two HDMI outputs to four separate displays. Sources now switch instant and delay-free, with bidirectional RS-232 HDBaseT I/Os.
A local diagnostics window incorporated into the GUI monitors data traffic. The AC-CX-84 supports two modes of RS-232 data: Base64 encoded and raw ASCII/HEX.
New built-in scaling options include 720p, a data projector matching 1920x1200, ultra-wide 2560x1080p, and super-wide 32:9 @ 3840x1080p, complementing the latest generation of desktop monitors and conference room DVLED walls. New also is an automatic EDID detection function to eliminate compatibility guesswork.
Aspect Ratio Conversion enables the AC-CX-84 to warp an image to fit the screen or correctly match a 16:9 input source inside a 21:9 display. If a resolution can not be correctly matched, it is either letterboxed or pillarboxed.
New features perfect for UCC rooms are HDMI 5-volt toggling and HDMI stream control. Many conferencing device codecs handshake with an HDMI source and neglect to release that one-to-one association when the particular source is no longer in use.
These codecs expect a new HDMI Hot Plug Detect event that handshakes with a new source. As this is a physical event, it is not practical for permanent installations. The AC-CX-84 API now includes a High/Low toggle to allow complete disconnection between a source output and the capture device. HDMI Stream Control can disable scaling when no active video source is present at an output.
AVPro Edge AC-CX-84 ConferX 4K 8x4 Matrix Switcher with Instant Switching Features:
- 4K Ultra-High Definition – The AC-CX-84 supports 4K/60 (4:4:4) 18 Gbps signals using AVPro Edge’s exclusive Invisible Compression Technology algorithm. Modern offices are taking advantage of the latest display technologies. As PCs default to 4K resolution, video infrastructures must be equipped to handle these commonplace high resolutions.
- Instant Switching – Source switching is now transparently instant, with transitions between sources visually undetectable.
- Additional Scaling Capabilities – Scaling upgrades include 720p plus office-oriented display resolutions of 1920x1200 (WUXGA), 2560x1080p (21:9 WFHD), and 3840x1080p (32:9 DFHD). Automatic EDID detection enhances compatibility and eliminates guesswork.
- Aspect Ratio Conversion – The AC-CX-84 can warp an image to fit wider-dimensioned monitors and DVLED video walls. Incoming aspect ratios can also be equally matched in output or letterboxed/pillarboxed to fill.
- HDBaseT bidirectional RS-232 – HDBaseT I/Os are updated to support bidirectional RS-232 data transmission in Base64 or raw ASCII/HEX. A Local Diagnostics GUI window displays baud rate, RS-232 mode type, and data information.
- 5-volt Toggle – High/Low toggle that manufactures an emulated Hot Plug Detect event for disconnection from codecs, enabling worry-free source switching with conferencing devices.
- HDMI Stream Control - Stream Control disables scaling when no active video is present at a source output.
- Mirror Mode - Mirrors the source output of adjacent HDBaseT and HDMI outputs for a same-source display via the two technology types.
- HDBaseT Interoperability – The AC-CX-84 may be used with all standard HDBaseT equipment.
- External HDBaseT Device Power – The AC-CX-84 can power connected HDBaseT transmitters and receivers, eliminating separate device power PSUs. Powerable devices include:
- HDBaseT Input:
- AC-CXWP-HDMO-T (allows for an HDMI input. 100 meters 1080p, or 70 meters 4K)
- AC-CXWP-VGA-T (allows for switchable VGA and HDMI inputs. 100 meters 1080p, or 70 meters 4K)
- AC-CXWP-USBC-T (allows for switchable USB-C and HDMI inputs. 100 meters 1080p, or 70 meters 4K)
- AC-EX70-444-TNE (100 meters 1080p, 70 meters 4K with ICT @18 Gbps)
- HDBaseT Output:
- AC-EX70-444-RNE-P (100 meters 1080p, 70 meters 4K with ICT @18 Gbps)
- AC-EX70-SC2-R (100 meters 1080p, 70 meters 4K with ICT @ 18 Gbps)
