INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the MC-5, SD/HD Video Routing Matrix and 
Distributor, from MUTEC GmbH.
Please keep this manual for future reference!
General Function Description
The MC-5 is an extremely high-flexible routing matrix and distributor for 
standard definition (SD) bi-level and high definition (HD) tri-level video 
signals.
The unit offers simultaneous routing and distribution of SD and HD video 
signals, regardless of the frame rates and formats of the incoming video 
references. In this process, the input signals are distributed according to 
your settings directly to the selected outputs without any alteration or 
amplification.
For this, the MC-5 provides 4 BNC inputs which can be routed individually 
to12 BNC outputs. One input reference signal can be distributed to one, but 
also on up to 12 outputs. When inputing more signals the available number 
of outputs will be reduced accordingly. But due to the routing capabilities 
of MC-5, the number of the outputs for the individual input signals can be 
assigned free.
Additionally, the unit offers a preset management which allows to store 
and to switch over 4 different settings of all outputs. So, MC-5 enables to 
configure the exact needed number of outputs for every video distribution 
application very easily.
A new designed, simple user interface enables to install the MC-5 without 
longer training time. Thus, the MC-5 provides an ideal output expansion for 
MUTEC’s video clock generator products, e.g. iCLOCK, iCLOCKdp, MC-3.1, 
MC-3.2 and MC-3.3.
