The IN1608 IPCP models feature a built-in Extron IPCP Pro 350 control processor for controlling and monitoring a variety
of external devices, such as projectors and lights. See the IPCP Pro Series Setup Guide for more details.
NOTE:
The non-IPCP models have a LAN connector next to the Remote RS-232 connector (see
right) instead of the IPCP Pro 350 control processor.
