AVPro Edge is gearing up to change the game again. The next generation of MXNet is just around the corner. Get ready for a superior solution set designed for the high end commercial segment. MXNet 10G, AVPro Edge’s premium AV over IP system, provides crystal clear uncompressed 4K video with versatile AV distribution applications support, including point-to-point signal extension, seamless HDMI matrix, 4K multi-viewers, multi-window video walls, KVM, control signals routing from any input to any output through 10GbE network, like CEC, IR, RS232, USB 2.0 and Ethernet.
This ecosystem is an ultra-low latency HDMI 2.0 4K60 4:4:4 video, multi-channel audio and control signal distribution system over 10G Ethernet network based on SDVoE standard and SEMTECH ASIC technologies. The core features of MXNet haven’t changed. We built this system on the same pillars of stability of the entire system, interoperability with any HDMI source, display, USB device, or control system, and easy deployment of the entire system.
The ecosystem concept provides the integrator access to all necessary components from end-points to network switchers and everything in between.

What makes MXnet different?
10G PoE Switch: AVPro Edge is launching our first 10G PoE switch with the AC-MXNET-10G-SW12C. Integrators typically power SDVoE transceivers by using power adapters or a secondary CAT cable. AVPro Edge’s solution only needs CAT6a cable for power and data – now, installers only have to run one cable for every video zone.
The Control Box: Our dedicated controller puts the configuration of not only the AV over IP system but also the network switch in the hands of the integrator. The GUI allows you to control switch management with VLAN settings and one-click IGMP settings. You can manage scaling, EDID, video walls, and switching on the AV side. Troubleshooting has never been easier; figure out which switch port connects to which encoder or decoder with real-time bandwidth data.
Module Cards: MXNet 10G features versatile functionality module cards, including the ICRON USB 2.0 (480Mbps) over IP card, allowing users to route taxing USB signals from one transceiver to another. Our AVDM audio downmixing card takes in 8+ channel bitstream audio, like Dolby Atmos or DTS-X, and downmixes them to a 2 Channel PCM signal ready for standard audio distribution applications.
Input Source Preview: View all sources connected to your system through MXNet Mentors preview screens. Through a built-in SDVoE decoder module on the Control Box, MXNet 10G can decode all the input source streams so you can preview the input sources on the Mentor software or third-party control system through API.
SDVoE Transceiver: The encoder and decoder (transmitter/receiver) are built into the same chassis with a simple switch to select between the two. With 10GbE copper and fiber ports on each AC-MXNET-10G-TCVR, you have the flexibility to work with the cabling that fits best for your specific installation, fiber optics or copper category cable.
Dual Support: We added a proprietary component allowing us to carry a single piece of hardware that supports Fiber OR Copper, with no additional action needed by the integrator, or having to hassle with multiple SKUs.
1G Ethernet Extension: There is no need to utilize a valuable 10G port for the controller. With 1G Ethernet extension, you can use this same AV over IP network system for your data. Now, you can hardwire TVs, computers or even connect a wireless access point on each remote transceiver.

The Ecosystem
This iteration of MXNet features the same modular approach to allow for truly custom installations. Everything starts with the Transceiver and the Network Switch. Each Transceiver has a built in SFP+ port, and can be used with fiber optic or copper. They also include versatile module cards including ICRON USB 2.0 (480Mbps) over IP, and audio downmixing.
The AVPro Edge custom network switches are built for SFP+ adapter modules which allow for a flexible mix of fiber or copper runs. The switches will be available with 12, 24, or 48 ports. We will also be introducing the our first 10G copper POE switches.
Then comes the Control Box which is the brain of your MXNet system, and runs MXNet Mentor. With unmatched features like input source previewing, the Mentor software will help you set up the entire system easier and faster than you ever thought possible.
