Avocent Emerge MPX1550 Specifications

Wireless HD Multipoint Extender
MPX1550: High-definition audio and video
The Avocent Emerge MPX1550 multipoint extender provides wireless or wired connectivity for
distribution of high-definition content from a source to one or more destinations. The MPX1550
extender combines Avocent's field-proven MPX technology with IEEE 802.11n MIMO-based
radios, thereby setting the highest standard for wireless HD video distribution in terms of visual
acuity, transmission distance, and noise immunity.
With the MPX1550 system, deployment of a single stream of media to many displays can be
accomplished in minutes, even under the most challenging of conditions, with a degree of
reliability and quality that rivals a dedicated source device at each and every display. Unlike
multiple source devices, however, video and audio remain in perfect lockstep across all displays
and failure-prone moving parts are kept to a minimum.
Designed for professional A/V applications involving both motion video and computer graphics,
Emerge MPX1550 extenders feature an integrated digital video interface (DVI-I) connector that
offers supports direct connection to HDMI, DVI-D, DVI-A, RGB and component source and
display devices.
For ease of installation and configuration, Emerge MPX1550 extenders feature an on-board web
server. The web interface also offers powerful diagnostic tools for remote or local management. All
Emerge MPX1550 products are field upgradeable to support future functionality.
