About the MPS 601

The Extron MPS 601 is a compact six input, one output media presentation switcher for digital and analog sources. It offers four, HDCP-compliant HDMI inputs and two RGB video inputs with analog stereo audio. RGB video and analog audio are digitized and switched through the HDMI output. The MPS 601 features two Extron-exclusive technologies: EDID Minder, which maintains continuous EDID communication between connected devices and Key Minder, which continuously authenticates and maintains HDCP encryption between input and output devices to ensure quick and reliable switching. The MPS 601 is ideal for applications that require routing digital and analog sources to a single display.
