Marketing Information

The MCX Gen 2 Controller is an all-in-one SDVoE/AVoIP network controller and manager for the MCX AVoIP system. The controller features an easy-to-use, intuitive user interface, and it makes setting up and managing your MCX AVoIP system a breeze. The Gen 2 Controller also offers strong security that ensures your data and content are always protected.

Simplified Setup

The MCX Gen 2 Controller makes setting up your AVoIP system easy and features a CSV import capability to accommodate large deployments. You can also assign icons to both source and display endpoints to assist in identification.

Complete Control UI

Create browser-based interfaces to control your projects' essential functions with our "no programming" approach to GUI design. Control matrix, video wall, and multiview functions as well as external devices like displays and media players. You can also create no-touch UIs with our pin coded QR system. This makes setting up touchpanels and control boards simple and cost-free.

System Design Testing

With the controller, you get granular testing of all encoder and decoder functionality as well as any attached IR or RS-232 devices. It also gives you reboot and reset options for individual endpoints or groups of endpoints.

Status Monitoring

The Gen 2 Controller provides real-time data on encoder and decoder operations plus insight into source and display operations.

Extensive Firmware Management

The controller features extensive firmware management that provides high-level admin access to individual endpoints or groups of endpoints.

Strong Security

Individual encrypted encoder and decoder pairings protect against unauthorized content viewing. Additional permission settings can allow or disallow routing.

EDID Management

The MCX Gen 2 Controller offers flexible EDID handling with full reporting of monitor information. And the EDID validation process ensures the integrity of information.

Automate Events

Automate actions like turning on displays upon source detection or initiating room off procedures after source disconnection. You can even combine the controller with multiple encoders to create a priority auto switching system.

Schedule Preset Commands

Schedule any number of preset commands for unattended operation. From ensuring all displays are turned off at end of day to changing source content on the lobby video wall, the possibilities are endless.

Track Your AV Devices

Get full asset tracking of devices. The MCX Gen 2 Controller logs the entire history of every device it manages, no matter the length of service.

SLA Adherence

Time-stamped logging of devices to meet system integrator SLA commitments. You can create reports that show when and how long devices were out of service as well.

Advanced Analytics

Better understand AV behavior by studying user AV interactions. Create reports to show when AV was used, how long it was used, and even how long it took to start AV in any meeting.
