The role of the technical administrator in today’s schools and
businesses has expanded to include management and
maintenance of A/V devices from multiple manufacturers, often
spread out over great distances. IP Link makes it easier to integrate
A/V systems into existing IP networks, providing Web-based
monitoring and control that unifies A/V equipment under a single
common graphical user interface.
The IPL T SF24 and IPL T SFI244 use Extron’s exclusive IP Link
™
technology, a high performance intelligent network solution
specifically engineered to meet the needs of professional A/V
environments, from large universities and businesses to small
presentation environments.
At its core, each IP Link Ethernet control interface is a complete,
high performance, Web server with robust computing power. Each
one contains a very fast processor with a latency, or delay, of less
than one millisecond from the time it receives a command to the
time it acts on that command. As a result, Web pages are served
many times faster than similar products, so data is refreshed at a
consistently high speed. The core technology and high
performance architecture of IP Link interfaces makes them ideal for
implementing A/V system management over the most widely
available transport medium today, the corporate IP network.
Centralized Asset Management and Monitoring
Using IP Link hardware along with the Global Viewer Web-based
asset management application, a technical administrator can track
the activity and status of all connected A/V devices. Multiple
rooms of equipment can be viewed simultaneously, by location or
device type. IP Link makes up-to-the-minute data available like
serial numbers, maintenance history, usage data, current status,
and installed firmware, all viewable from any computer on the
network. With IP Link’s e-mail functionality, accessed via the Global
Viewer, devices can be configured to proactively manage
themselves. For instance, a projector can be polled routinely to
track lamp usage and total life time. When lamp usage reaches a
predetermined number of hours, the IP Link interface can send an
e-mail, reminding technicians to replace the lamp.
Automated Scheduling
IP Link interfaces include a real-time clock, allowing an
administrator to program operating alerts, schedule routine
equipment activity, or run maintenance checks on lamp hours,
environmental conditions, connectivity, and other issues vital to

operations. For instance, an administrator may want to configure
projectors and other devices to power on or off at preset times.
User-defined tasks are easy to configure and schedule with IP Link.
Scheduling tasks and setting up e-mail reminders is simple and
straightforward and doesn’t require high-level programming skills.
Remote Technical Support
One of the biggest challenges facing technical administrators
today is meeting the ever-growing demands for technical support
with limited support staff. IP Link extends the support staff’s reach,
giving technicians the power to troubleshoot and solve many
typical problems remotely. With access to real-time A/V device
status, such as power on or off, and current input selection,
technicians can often restore system operation in minutes. The
result is time saved and a reduced level of frustration for users.
System Security and Loss Prevention
IP Link interfaces are always on and routinely poll their connected
devices for status information. If a serially controlled device like a
projector or document camera is physically disconnected from the
network, the IP Link interface monitoring its status will know
immediately. In such an event, the IP Link interface can be
configured to send an e-mail message notifying security personnel
of the problem.
