Simplifying Installs with the MC-TX1-RACK Encoder
The new MC-TX1-RACK encoder combines three MC-TX1 MaxColor 4K60 4:4:4 HDMI encoders into a single rackmount chassis, streamlining cable management, reducing clutter, and significantly speeding up installation for both compact and large-scale AV-over-IP systems. This innovation is the first of its kind in the MaxColor lineup and centralizes multiple encoders to reduce points of failure and simplify troubleshooting, ensuring reliable system performance and easy access to all connections via front-facing ports. Supporting all audio formats and featuring Audio Return Channel (ARC) functionality for seamless two-way audio integration, the MC-TX1-RACK makes sophisticated AV setups more efficient and powerful than ever.
Effortless Control with the MC-USB Device
The MaxColor™ USB 2.0 over IP device (MC-USB) represents a significant leap forward in integrated system control. A unique addition to the MaxColor family that can be integrated as an encoder or a decoder, the MC-USB provides access to all computers on a system with built-in KVM control, plus touchscreen and webcam interface. This device enables flexible access and robust control over distant computers, ensuring efficiency and security in 4K60 UltraHD environments. With one USB-C 2.0 port on the back and two USB-C 2.0 ports and two USB-A 2.0 ports on the front, all connected over an RJ-45 1GbE LAN port, the MC-USB delivers comprehensive KVM and hotkey support, making it an essential tool for AV, IT, and broadcast environments demanding precise control and seamless user interaction.
Unlocking AV-over-IP Creativity with the MC-QX
The MC-QX MaxColor 4K60 Tiling and Warping Encoder combines Just Add Power’s cutting-edge MaxColor technology, 4K network video tiler, and Warp Engine technology into a single, powerful device. This innovative encoder allows up to four 4K60 source devices to be simultaneously displayed on a single screen in multiple formats, including single-screen, tiled video, or custom layout. With its warping capability, installers can rotate any source image in a Just Add Power matrix in 0.1-degree increments in real time, sending the rotated image to an unlimited number of Decoders for the creation of massive artistic video walls. The MC-QX truly empowers integrators to imagine the possibilities for dynamic, multi-source video environments, from sports bars and casinos to digital art installations.
