MCX is a next-generation AV-over-IP solution from Black Box. MCX distributes and extends 4K 60 Hz video and audio over IP and is made for 10-Gbps network infrastructures. MCX delivers the video quality high-end AV applications require to display eye-catching content: It extends uncompressed 4K 60 Hz 4:4:4 video to an unlimited number of displays without sacrificing latency, video quality or bandwidth. Even better, it supports up to 10-bit HDR using Software-Defined Video over Ethernet (SDVoE) - the latest software-based AV-over-IP platform for extension and control of AV systems on Ethernet or fiber networks.
This video extension system is easy to install on a modern network. MCX-S7-FO can be deployed on 10G networks over fiber. This robust video distribution system's glass-to-glass encoding and decoding happen in real-time (0.03 milliseconds). This means you never deal with annoying lag or video delay. MCX switches between video sources in less than 100 milliseconds with no artifacts or screen blink. This means you can switch video content super-fast without any noticeable distortion to your image.
The MCX Web UI gives you complete control over your AV network from your preferred web browser. You can connect every essential AV distribution device to your MCX through its variety of ports: discrete RS-232, IR, secondary audio channel plus a separate 1-GbE connection.
