  • Description

    MediaCento™ IPX Unicast Transmitter


    Quick Facts

  • A digital solution for the future at an analog price!
  • Transmits HDMI® video and audio over an Ethernet network to a single monitor or display.
  • Uses existing standards-based Ethernet technology and TCP/IP protocols.

  • Further Details

  • Provides very high image quality with visually lossless compression.
  • EDID copy function for optimal PC-to-screen performance.
  • Virtually no distance limitations. Can go as far as your network reaches.
  • Supports serial connections to switch a screen on/off.
  • HDCP compliant and Blu-ray ready.

    This attractively priced IP streaming solution unicasts HDMI® video and audio to a distant screen on your network. Use the MediaCento IPX Unicast system to distribute digital signage content or other HD video and audio across an Ethernet network.

    Because the transmitter and receiver install directly into your existing LAN infrastructure, integration is easy. There’s no need to run expensive dedicated links from a back room to digital signage in lobbies.

    The extender transmits up to 328 feet (100 m) point to point, but goes even longer with network switches added to the mix. You can even use fiber with media converters to go several miles if needed. Its signal is completely digital from end to end, so your digital content is never compromised.

    Lossless compression for HD extension.
    The MediaCento IPX Unicast system packetizes signals so your HD source content can be delivered anywhere you want over Ethernet wiring.

    Featuring visually lossless compression, the MediaCento IPX Unicast units transmit broadcast-quality video and audio, and support Full 1080p resolution no matter what the distance, as well as all common PC resolutions (XGA, SXGA, UXGA, WSXGA) up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz.

    Extremely easy to set up and use.
    The MediaCento IPX Unicast system also supports RS-232 for configuration and control, and for extending bidirectional control signals. Use this serial link to switch a screen on or off.

    There’s no need to configure any IP settings (although more experienced users can do that if needed). Simply use rotary switches to set the transmitter and receiver to the same channel and all IP settings are automatically configured; then just connect your source, your display, and a network switch. It’s ready to go!

    MediaCento IPX Unicast is great for:
    • Any digital signage application with a screen in a different building or store.
    • Distributing high-quality medical imaging video across a hospital campus.
    • Streaming video to classrooms in schools.
    • Sharing video in command and control room setups.
    • Corporate video sharing and training.
