All models
Audio inputs — MMX switchers accept up to four (MMX 42) or
six (MMX 62) stereo audio inputs. AV and SVA models
accept balanced or unbalanced stereo on 3.5 mm, 5-pole
captive screw terminals. RCA models accept unbalanced
stereo on RCA terminals.
Audio outputs — MMX switchers output two stereo audio
outputs. AV and SVA models output balanced or
unbalanced stereo on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw
terminals. RCA models output unbalanced stereo on
RCA terminals.
Audio input gain and attenuation — Users can set the level of
audio gain or attenuation (-18dB to +24dB) for each input
via the RS-232 link. Individual input audio levels can be
adjusted so there are no noticeable volume differences
between sources.
Front panel control — The operator can select the inputs and
outputs, as well as audio follow or breakaway, using the
front panel buttons.
RS-232 control — The operator can control the MMX 42/62
from a remote computer or other host using a link to the
RS-232 port. RS-232 control uses Extron’s Simple
Instruction Set
™ (SIS ™ ) or the Windows-based control
software.
Simple Instruction Set — The Simple Instruction Set
program lets a host computer control the MMX with
simple commands.
Windows control software — Extron’s Windows-based
control software provides a graphic way to set up
and control the MMX with an on-screen control
panel. It allows the operator to remotely select
inputs, make audio adjustments, and store settings
for future use.
Mounting options — The MMX 42/62 is 1U high and a half-
rack width wide. It can be installed on a VersaTools 1U
rack shelf or a standard Universal rack shelf, or under a
desk or podium using an under-desk mounting kit.
Auto-switching power supply — An external power supply
with an IEC connector, which can be used internationally
with any power input from 110 VAC to 240 VAC at 50 or
60 Hz and adapts automatically to the input type.
