Mondo Matrix Scalable Cat 5 Video Matrix Switch

Magenta Research's pioneering Mondo Matrix™ is a full-matrix scalable Cat5 switch platform that distributes and switches video, audio and serial signals over a source to destination distance of one to fifteen hundred feet (457 meters), or more when using a Morph-It™ equipped with Dual EQ cards. The Mondo Matrix handles RGBHV, Component, HDTV, S-Video and Composite video at a maximum resolution of 2048x1536, with SPDIF digital audio, stereo or left/right mono audio, and/or simplex serial, depending on the accompanying MultiView transmitters and receivers.

The Mondo Matrix is available in configurations that will meet the need of any conceivable installation, from 16x16 to 256x256, and is fully compatible with Magenta's full line of MultiView Series transmitters and receivers. The Mondo Matrix also features redundant (dual) power supplies for added reliability.

In order to achieve large configurations, Mondo Matrix frames (4U each) are cascaded vertically to satisfy large output ranges and horizontally to expand input needs. A 64x32 Mondo Matrix, for example, would require two frames (8U total).

Features/Benefits of the Mondo Matrix include:
• Configurable from 16x16 to 256x256--in steps of 16 inputs or outputs--to meet a wide-range of larger-scale full-matrix switching applications
• Audio and/or serial pairs can be switched separately
• Used in conjunction with the MultiView Series of Cat5 transmitters and receivers, enabling high-resolution video, audio and serial distribution to 1500 feet (457 meters)
• Video, audio and/or serial signals are switched in combination, greatly reducing complexity
• Cat5 / RJ45 inputs and outputs, rather than BNC's, lead to a dramatic reduction in:
connections / rack space / power consumption / installation labor
