About the Switchers

The Extron MVX Series VGA matrix switchers (figure 1-1) is a family of computer video matrix switchers that distribute any VGA or component/HDTV video (or other high resolution video) and audio input to any combination of outputs. The MVX Series switchers can route multiple input/output ties simultaneously. The switchers input and output high resolution video on 15-pin HD connectors. The switchers input audio on 3.5 mm mini jacks and output audio on 3.5 mm captive screw connectors. There are four matrix sizes available:

•MVX 44 (four inputs by four outputs)

•MVX 48 (four inputs by eight outputs)

•MVX 84 (eight inputs by four outputs)

•MVX 88 (eight inputs by eight outputs)
