About the Switchers
The Extron MVX Series VGA matrix switchers (see
) is a family of computer video
matrix switchers that distribute any VGA or component/HDTV video (or other high resolution
video) and audio input to any combination of outputs. The MVX Series switchers can route
multiple input/output ties simultaneously. The switchers input and output high resolution
video on 15-pin HD connectors. They input audio on 3.5 mm mini jacks and output audio on
3.5 mm captive screw connectors. There are four matrix sizes available:
•
MVX 44 (four inputs by four outputs)
•
MVX 48 (four inputs by eight outputs)
•
MVX 84 (eight inputs by four outputs)
•
MVX 88 (eight inputs by eight outputs)
