Chapter 2: Overview
2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
The MediaCento IPX with PoE is a perfect solution for audio and video signal
extension via an existing Local Area Network (LAN) system. With multicast
technology, one local unit can drive multiple remote units with no extra network
load. There are 16 selectable channels that can be used to transmit to multiple
receivers. In a network that supports IGMP (Layer 2 or Layer 3 switches), each
channel can connect to unlimited displays in video wall applications and unlimited
displays in a multicast application using a standard IT Ethernet structure on a LAN
system.
The MediaCento IPX with PoE supports Full HD 1080p, is HDCP compliant, is Blu-ray
ready, and supports Power over Ethernet (PoE). It can handle applications that
require greater distance, high speed transmission, real-time high video resolution,
security, and noise immunity. It is ideal for situations that need live presentation,
such as public broadcasting, education centers, boardrooms, etc.
