1. Installing the Matrix 6400 Audio BME
The Matrix 6400 Audio BME may be a stand- alone audio switcher or it may be part of a Matrix 6400/3200 System. In either case it may be installed in a rack. If it is part of a Matrix 6400/ 3200 System, BMEs may be separated by up to 12 feet and rack mounting is NOT required. If the BMEs are to be rack mounted, they may mounted in any order within a rack or cabinet. The limiting factor is the BME COMM interconnecting cable length which is 12 feet maximum. There are no restrictions to the order in which BMEs may be mounted relative to each other. Logically, the BME addresses in a system such as the one shown in Figure
The location of the equipment within a room should be given careful consideration. Poor planning, with the number of cables involved, could result in a cluttered appearance. Power requirements and the amount of heat exhaust from the system should be taken into consideration.
