6 The IPLinx IPEX2001 transmits HDMI video and audio over a gigabit IP network using CBR or VBR h.264 AVC encoding with a configurable data rate up to 30 Mbps. The IPEX2001 supports video signals up to 1920x1200 at 60 Hz. The IPEX2001 outputs two video streams: one large IP stream at the native content resolution and a smaller video stream at 352x288 at 5 Hz to easily view a preview of the content on the IPLinx Control software for Windows and iPad. Up to 999 encoders may be used to create an incredible matrix or switching system within a single installation. An analog audio output port de-embeds the audio from the HDMI content, while still streaming the audio with the video content. The IPEX2001 supports PoE and can be powered remotely by compatible power source equipment, such as a PoE Ethernet switch, eliminating the need for a nearby power outlet. Encoding control provides adjustments for encoding bit rate and quality. The RS232 port operates in a pass-through capacity to control a third party device such as a projector. The IPEX2001 requires an IPEXCB control box and is compatible with IPEX2002 and IPEX2003MV streaming decoders. The IPLinx IPEX2002 receives HDMI video and audio over a gigabit IP network using CBR or VBR h.264 AVC encoding with a configurable data rate up to 30 Mbps. The IPEX2002 supports video signals up to 1920x1200 at 60 Hz. The IPEX2002 outputs video up to 1920x1200 at 60 Hz and will scale the content based on the native resolution of the connected display while seemlessly switching between sources. Up to 999 decoders may be used to create an incredible matrix or distribution system within a single installation. Depending on the needs of the installation, multiple IPEX2002 devices can be configured to make a video wall up to a 16x16 configuration. An analog audio output port de-embeds the audio from the HDMI content, while still passing the audio to the HDMI output. The IPEX2002 supports PoE and can be powered remotely by compatible power source equipment, such as a PoE Ethernet switch, eliminating the need for a nearby power outlet. Encoding control provides adjustments for encoding bit rate and quality. The RS232 port operates in a pass-through capacity to control a third party device such as a projector. The IPEX2002 requires an IPEXCB control box and is compatible with the IPEX2001 streaming encoders. Product Overview Package Contents per Device 1. Installation Guide 2.
