About this Guide

This guide contains installation, configuration, and operating information for the Extron
XMP 240 C AT Expansion Matrix Processor. In this guide, the XMP 240 C AT may also be
referred to as "XMP" or "device".
About the XMP 240 C AT
The XMP 240 Expansion Matrix Processor features an extensive mix matrix with 24
channels of AEC and 48x48 Dante
240 can also be used standalone for matrix processing in an all network audio system.
When connected to a DMP Plus Series processor via Dante or the EXP expansion port, a
complete system is created that features up to 36 channels of AEC, a USB audio interface,
analog connectivity, and optional VoIP. A system expanded with an XMP 240 is capable
of supporting multiple beam forming microphone arrays alongside numerous other Dante
sources, with enough outputs to support multiple zones and destination devices. Ideal for
network audio systems based on Dante or AES67, the XMP 240 allows for high channel
count audio input and output processing.

Features
Application Diagram
24 channels of AEC - acoustic echo cancellation — The XMP 240 includes
24 independent channels of high performance AEC, as well as selectable noise
cancellation. Extron AEC features advanced algorithms that deliver fast echo canceler
convergence for optimal intelligibility in situations that challenge AEC performance.
Dante audio networking with Dante Domain Manager and AES67 support —
Dante audio networking provides scalability for creating larger audio matrixes over a
local area network using standard protocols. A built-in two-port Gigabit switch can be
configured to support primary and redundant Dante audio networks.
Extensive mix matrix with input and output processing — Allows all inputs to be
discretely routed to any or all outputs, with processing.
FlexInput capability on all inputs for input source selection — All 48 inputs
offer FlexInput capability to select a Dante channel or expansion input. This allows
incorporating the full range of DSP capabilities, including AEC, for any incoming signal.
connectivity in only a half rack space. The XMP
