At CEDIA this year, MuxLab will premier new AV over IP products that help define high performance AV infrastructures in residential environments. IP connectivity allows AV equipment to be utilized more effectively in the home, curtailing cabling costs and streamlining the entire implementation process. New products include:

Video Wall 4K over IP Extender Kit (500759)

This AV over IP solution distributes and extends 4k video in the HDMI format. Integrators can install a unique, custom-sized video wall comprised of potentially hundreds of displays. The kit includes a transmitter and receiver, and multiple displays can be added with additional receivers. Displays can be stacked and extended up to 100 meters from the Ethernet switch using standard CAT5/6 cable.

Audio/AMP over IP Extender, with Mic (500755-AMP)

This transmitter/receiver system delivers two-channel analog audio with a mic signal over an IP network. Equipment can also be extended up to 100 meters from the Ethernet switch using industry-standard CAT5/6 cable in a point-to-point configuration. For more complex installations, integrators can create point-to-multipoint or multipoint-to-multipoint systems by adding additional transmitters and receivers to the same network. This system supports a distributed arrangement of transmitters and receivers all networked together to form a virtual matrix switch allowing for a connection between any audio source and destination device, such as speaker systems. The system offers an easy to use format with the ability to instantly and remotely send any source to any destination at will, via a web interface, tablet or smartphone.

Audio Zone Amplifier 100W (500217)

A Class D amplifier, this original solution allows both analog and digital sources to feed a pair of 50W per channel speakers. Dual two-channel inputs (RCA and 3.5mm) and one digital optical output are provided in addition to two 50W outputs or one 100W output, making it ideal for integrated audio systems. When set in Bridge mode and paired with MuxLab’s 70V Transformer unit (500755-70V), it will support distributed 70V speaker systems over longer distances in a daisy chain configuration. This amp offers local and remote control using push buttons, RS232, IR and an IP webserver interface.

“The new emphasis for MuxLab is in taking the lead when it comes to AV over IP with easy software configurations for setting up a network switch and creating a video wall,” said MuxLab President Daniel Assaraf. “These products support a variety of formats from MJPEG, H.264 and 4K/60 uncompressed that enhances AV integration in ways we haven’t seen before.”
