This is a chassis expansion card, not a standalone product — it requires an AC-AXION-X chassis to function. Designed for high-end residential and commercial AV installations, the AVDM input card allows integrators to route 4K HDMI sources — including Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision content — through the AXION-X matrix while simultaneously downmixing multi-channel audio to a 2-channel stereo signal for zones or amplifiers that do not support surround formats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC-AXION-X is a modular, slot-based matrix switcher chassis that allows integrators to configure input and output card combinations to match the specific source and display count of each installation.

The built-in AVDM (audio downmix) engine processes 8-channel or greater audio from the HDMI source and converts it to a 2-channel stereo output, which can be independently routed to amplifiers, audio zones, or A\/V receivers that handle only stereo input.

But any telling of AVPro Edge innovation history is incomplete without mention of the legendary AC-EX40-444-KIT, which debuted Invisible Compression Technology (ICT), our transformative in-house custom-engineered, compression-transparent, proprietary algorithm, revolutionizing HDMI extension technology while simultaneously establishing the reference standard for point-to-point transmission of UHD 4K60Hz 4:4:4 signals using copper category cabling. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this newly updated version, the AC-EX40-444-PLUS-KIT now arrives configured in the same elegant form factor as class-leading HDMI extension stablemate, the AC-EX100-444-KIT. This uptick in chassis proportions provides the additional internal real estate necessary to implement a newly developed application-specific integrated circuit. This ASIC features AVPro Edge’s exclusive 18Gbps Bandwidth-Adaptable Output Configuration, giving residential and commercial integrators options for managing signal bandwidth to match installation infrastructure challenges. For new installations or where Category 6A or better  (shielded is preferred) cabling with precision termination exists, the AC-EX40-444-PLUS-KIT flawlessly transports uncompressed HDMI 2.0 video up to 40 meters (131 ft). In applications encountering legacy Category 5-rated cabling, a compression option of 10.2 Gbps using ICT may be enabled, switch-selectable from a chassis-mounted toggle to ferry content up to 70 meters (230 ft). The Bandwidth-Adaptable Output Configuration also serves as a convenient fallback should content expected to passthrough the system uncompressed fails to do so for an unidentifiable reason. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe AC-EX-40-444-PLUS-KIT supports eARC signal transfer, along with Dolby Vision plus static and dynamic HDR metadata formats.

The 19 conductor HDMI format was designed to facilitate this process when transporting media between devices, using a total of 8, small gauge wires to handle video information with the bulk of those remaining devoted to system policing. It wasn’t envisioned that sources would be placed elsewhere than the immediate display location, and the first HDMI cable designs dramatically exemplified these inherent problems with a useable HDMI cable length barely exceeding fifteen feet. Over time, this thankfully has been addressed in a variety of well-sorted ways, including AVPro Edge Bullet Train cables. Still, no successful “on-site, made to length” HDMI cables exist.

Its ultra-slim form factor makes it practical for installations where rack or wall space is constrained, including boardrooms, conference rooms, and commercial AV distribution systems. Operating at the full 18Gbps HDMI 2.0 bandwidth, it supports HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and eARC, making it a complete long-cable HDMI replacement for modern commercial AV environments. Integrators specifying 4K HDBaseT extenders for corporate or hospitality installs will find this kit handles the signal integrity, control, and audio requirements of complex AV systems in a single, compact package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AC-EX100-444-KIT is built on a newly designed highly integrated System on Chip that meets HDBaseT Spec 3.0, while remaining backward compatible with earlier HDBaseT infrastructure. It transmits uncompressed 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 video with near-zero latency (under 8ms), which is critical for live switching environments and interactive presentations. The kit supports USB 2.0 at 390Mbps for KVM functionality, allowing keyboard and mouse control at the display end — a significant advantage in boardroom or unified communication setups. Ethernet pass-through at 10\/100Mbps allows network-connected devices at the display end to share the same Cat6 cable run used for video.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-ex100-444-kit-ultra-slim-100-meter-4k60-4-4-4-hdr-hdbaset-extender-creation-networks-66874.jpg?v=1757899234\" alt=\"AVPro Edge AC-EX100-444-KIT Ultra Slim HDBaseT Extender Kit\" style=\"max-width:100%;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eBandwidth-Adaptable Output Configuration allows the receiver to negotiate the optimal bandwidth for the connected display, reducing compatibility issues with mixed-generation equipment.

At just 12mm thick, the ultra-slim transmitter and receiver chassis offer unmatched placement flexibility, making them ideal for tight equipment areas and behind-display mounting. AVPro Edge's proprietary Invisible Compression Technology (ICT) ensures artifact-free video delivery without the banding, color washing, or motion errors common to standard DSC-based solutions. The kit includes bidirectional IR and RS-232 pass-through, analog audio extraction, and Power over HDBaseT to simplify cabling to a single category cable run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC-EX40-444-KIT was built for AV integrators who need to extend high-bandwidth HDMI signals without sacrificing picture quality or complicating infrastructure. The transmitter side accepts a 4K60 4:4:4 HDMI source and encodes it using AVPro Edge's ICT algorithm — a proprietary process developed in-house rather than relying on off-the-shelf DSC chipsets. This approach preserves full chroma detail and HDR metadata, including Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG, across the entire cable run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA built-in downscaler on the transmitter allows 4K signals (including HDR) to be rescaled to 1080p at the output, making the kit compatible with legacy displays when deployed alongside an HDMI matrix switcher. Comprehensive EDID management allows the integrator to copy and lock a known-working EDID, ensuring reliable HDCP handshakes in complex signal chains. The kit also features an onboard test pattern generator for commissioning and troubleshooting without additional test equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-ex40-444-kit-ultra-slim-40m-70m-hd-4k60-4-4-4-hdr-hdbaset-extender-creation-networks-35148.jpg?v=1757899239\" alt=\"AVPro Edge AC-EX40-444-KIT HDBaseT Extender\" style=\"max-width:100%;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower over HDBaseT (PoH) allows either the TX or RX unit to power the other, eliminating the need for a local power outlet at the display end.

The 19 conductor HDMI format was designed to facilitate this process when transporting media between devices, using a total of 8, small gauge wires to handle video information with the bulk of those remaining devoted to system policing. It wasn’t envisioned that sources would be placed elsewhere than the immediate display location, and the first HDMI cable designs dramatically exemplified these inherent problems with a useable HDMI cable length barely exceeding fifteen feet. Over time, this thankfully has been addressed in a variety of well-sorted ways, including AVPro Edge Bullet Train cables. Still, there are no “on-site, made to length” HDMI cables; electronic extension kits using category wire have resolved this issue, plus offering additional application options. AVPro Edge’s pioneering AC-EX70-UHD-KIT was among the first HDMI signal extension packages to perfectly preserve all the fidelity in the original signal. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCOMPREHENSIVE EDID MANAGEMENT:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eLegacy HD displays are often retained for use in new installation projects and occasionally their dated EDIDs impart problems contending with present-day sources.

At 12mm thick, the transmitter and receiver units can be mounted in locations where traditional extenders would not fit, making them practical for behind-display, under-desk, and ceiling-void installations. ARC functionality allows audio from smart TV apps — such as Netflix, Hulu, or streaming services running natively on the display — to be returned over the same CAT cable to a headend amplifier or AVR, eliminating the need for a separate audio return path. This extender is engineered for commercial and residential installers who need reliable 4K extension with bidirectional control and audio return in a single, compact package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AC-EX70-UHD-ARC kit includes a transmitter (AC-EX70-UHD-ARC-T) and receiver (AC-EX70-UHD-ARC-R) connected via a single UTP or STP CAT cable in place of an HDMI run that would otherwise be unreliable beyond 25 feet. At 1080p, the system achieves a 70-meter (230-foot) transmission distance; at 4K, the distance is 40 meters (131 feet) at 4K60 4:2:0 or 4K30 4:4:4. The ARC feature sends local display audio — typically from built-in smart apps — back to the transmitter end, where it can be fed into an amplifier or audio distribution system. Bidirectional RS-232 and IR control allow the control system at the rack to operate the display, or inversely for local IR commands to reach the source at the headend. Power over HDBaseT (PoH) at 48V means only one power supply is needed — the unit can be powered from either end — which reduces cabling complexity at the display location. The I-Pass feature routes control system IR emitter signals directly through the transmitter's mono 3.5mm IR port, with a built-in Voltage Protection Circuit (VPC) preventing damage to sensitive control system electronics during IR transport. ESD protection circuitry rated to 7kV on all inputs and outputs protects the unit from electrostatic damage during installation and operation. EDID management is included for reliable source-to-display compatibility, and the unit supports cascading for extended topology builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cimg

Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Audio Return Channel (ARC) and why does it matter for this extender?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eARC is an HDMI feature that allows a display to send audio back to a connected receiver or amplifier over the same HDMI connection. In the context of this extender, ARC allows audio from smart TV apps running on the display — such as Netflix, Hulu, or YouTube — to travel back over the HDBaseT CAT cable to the headend, where it can be fed into an audio amplifier or distribution system. This eliminates the need for a separate audio return cable from the display location.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Extron DTP HDMI 4K 230 Tx support ARC?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eNo. The Extron DTP HDMI 4K 230 Tx does not support Audio Return Channel, which is a meaningful limitation when the display will use built-in streaming apps for content delivery. The AVPro Edge AC-EX70-UHD-ARC includes full ARC support, making it the more capable choice in ARC-dependent installations.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat cable type is recommended for 4K performance?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eCAT 6a is recommended for 4K operation at the maximum 40-meter distance. CAT 5e is supported but may limit performance at longer runs. STP (shielded) cable is recommended in electrically noisy environments to maintain signal integrity.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this extender be powered from the display end?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eYes. Power over HDBaseT allows the included 48V power supply to be connected to either the transmitter or the receiver end. This is useful when power is only readily available at the display location, avoiding the need to run a separate power circuit to the rack.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this extender compatible with all HDBaseT receivers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eThe AC-EX70-UHD-ARC is a kit that includes both a matched transmitter and receiver. HDBaseT interoperability with third-party receivers depends on the receiver's HDBaseT certification and feature set. AVPro Edge recommends using the matched TX\/RX pair for guaranteed ARC and control feature compatibility.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e","brand":"AVPro Edge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43296431210732,"sku":"AC-EX70-UHD-ARC","price":859.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-ex70-uhd-arc-ultra-slim-4k-hdmi-via-hdbaset-70-meter-extender-with-audio-return-channel-creation-networks-24816.jpg?v=1757899243"},{"product_id":"av-pro-edge-ac-cxwp-hdmo-bkt-conferx-s-hdbaset-wall-plate-transmitter-receiver-basic-kit","title":"AVPro Edge AC-CXWP-HDMO-BKT ConferX’s HDBaseT Wall Plate Transmitter\/Receiver Basic Kit","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AVPro Edge AC-CXWP-HDMO-BKT is a complete HDBaseT extension kit from the ConferX product line, pairing a single-gang Decora-style wall plate transmitter with a matching HDMI receiver to extend 4K HDMI signals up to 40 meters (130 feet) and 1080p signals up to 70 meters (230 feet) over a single CAT6A cable. Designed specifically for conference rooms, huddle spaces, classrooms, and single-office environments, the kit eliminates the length and fragility limitations of passive HDMI cables without requiring a separate rack-mount extender at the source end. The wall plate transmitter requires no local power — it draws power from the included receiver unit — keeping the presenter's end of the installation clean and cable-light. This is a point-to-point HDMI extension solution sold and used exclusively as a matched kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC-CXWP-HDMO-BKT solves a fundamental problem in meeting room AV design: getting HDMI from a presenter's connection point on a wall or table surface to a display or projector located 40 to 70 meters away, without the fragility and distance limitations of long passive HDMI cables. The single-gang wall plate transmitter (AC-CXWP-HDMO-T) mounts in any standard USA single-gang mud ring or Decora-type electrical box, presenting a clean flush-mounted HDMI input at the presenter's position. A single CAT6A cable run from the wall plate to the receiver (AC-EX70-UHD-BR) — which sits at the display end — carries the HDMI signal over HDBaseT at up to 40 meters for 4K30 4:4:4 or up to 70 meters for 1080p content.

It transmits a full 18Gbps HDMI 2.0 signal up to 2 kilometers over single mode fiber, or up to 300 meters over multimode fiber, with no perceptible loss in image quality. This makes it the correct choice for campus-wide 4K HDR video distribution, large venue display systems, and data center or control room signal routing where copper-based extenders cannot reach. Integrators working on 18Gbps matrix distribution projects — including systems built around the AC-MX1616-AUHD — will find the AC-EXO-444-KIT a direct and capable extension solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AC-EXO-444-KIT uses ICT (Invisible Compression Technology) to achieve lossless 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 transmission over a single fiber strand. Unlike competing fiber extenders that introduce visible banding or color shifting at high bandwidths, this unit preserves Deep Color and HDR metadata in full. The kit ships with a transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx), both supporting built-in 4K and 1080p test pattern generation for rapid field troubleshooting without needing a connected source or display.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-exo-444-kit-4k-hdmi-extender-via-optical-fiber-up-to-2-kilometers-using-single-mode-fiber-up-to-300-meters-using-multimode-fiber-creation-networks-72925.jpg?v=1757899258\" alt=\"AVPro Edge AC-EXO-444-KIT 4K HDMI Fiber Optic Extender Kit\" style=\"max-width:100%;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe built-in 4K-to-1080p downscaler in the transmitter allows mixed-resolution systems — where some displays are 4K and others are older 1080p panels — to be served from a single extender without adding external scalers. IR and RS-232 control are bidirectional, and the I-PASS port supports direct connection of control system emitter outputs via a mono 3.5mm cable.

It accepts both HDMI 2.0 and USB-C (USB 3.1 Gen 2) video inputs and transmits the signal over a single CAT6A cable to a compatible HDBaseT receiver, reaching up to 100 meters at 1080p and 70 meters at 4K. Power is supplied via Power over Ethernet from the receiver end, eliminating the need for a local power outlet or wall transformer at the wall plate. Built to military-grade standards and backed by a 10-year warranty, it is one of the most durable and installer-friendly wall plate transmitters available for BYOD meeting environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBYOD conference rooms require a connection point that works reliably with any source a presenter brings — whether a laptop with HDMI, a newer laptop or tablet with USB-C, or a desktop workstation. The AC-CXWP-USBC-T handles both input types on a single gang plate, with plug-and-play auto-sensing that activates the connected input automatically without requiring the presenter or room occupant to press any button or navigate a menu. The unit fits any standard US single-gang mud ring or Decora-style wall box, making it a direct replacement for conventional wall plates in retrofit and new construction projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-cxwp-usbc-t-hdmi-or-usb-c-wall-plate-transmitter-via-hdbaset-creation-networks-12914.jpg?v=1757899263\" alt=\"AVPro Edge AC-CXWP-USBC-T HDMI USB-C Wall Plate Transmitter\" style=\"max-width:100%;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSignal transmission over the HDBaseT link carries HDMI video, audio, control (CEC), and power on a single CAT6A run.

Output 1 mirrors the source at its native resolution up to 4K60 4:4:4, while Output 2 includes an integrated downscaler that can reduce the signal to 1080p — useful when a secondary display cannot accept 4K. The Toslink digital audio output allows audio to be extracted independently and routed to an amplifier or DSP without additional hardware. Advanced EDID management enables custom EDID configurations so the source sees consistent display capabilities regardless of the connected screens.

The GEN2 designation reflects a revised design that improves signal stability, adds advanced onboard EDID management with 16 selectable profiles, and features a locking power connector to prevent accidental disconnections. Its ultra-low-profile chassis allows installation in tight spaces where full-size rack equipment would not fit.

The GEN2 revision brings refinements to signal integrity and EDID management, with dual rotary controls offering 32 EDID combination options — including a purpose-built cascade mode for multi-hop deployments. At $979, it serves as the backbone of large-format video distribution systems in commercial, hospitality, educational, and residential environments where maintaining 4K60 4:4:4 and full HDR integrity across multiple displays is non-negotiable. Its ultra-low-profile chassis and optional rack mounting brackets give integrators installation flexibility in tight equipment spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC-DA18-AUHD-GEN2 accepts a single HDMI 2.0 source and distributes it to eight HDMI outputs at full 18Gbps without signal degradation. Where lesser distribution amplifiers reduce bandwidth or HDR metadata to simplify distribution, this unit maintains the complete signal — 4K60 4:4:4 chroma, HDR10, 12-bit color depth, Dolby Vision, and HLG — from input to all eight outputs. The GEN2 designation reflects AVPro Edge's updated internal circuitry for improved signal stability at full bandwidth, particularly over longer cable runs where equalization and re-clocking matter most. A dedicated cascade mode allows multiple AC-DA18-AUHD-GEN2 units to be chained together, extending output counts and transmission distances without introducing latency artifacts or signal degradation at each hop. EDID management is handled via two physical rotary switches, providing 32 EDID combination settings including auto, display-read, and cascade presets — eliminating the need for software tools during commissioning. The ultra-low-profile chassis allows installation in shallow spaces, equipment closets, or directly behind displays where rack space is unavailable.\n\u003cimg

Unlike general-purpose IT switches that require expert configuration to handle AV multicast traffic, this MXNet 48-port AV network switch ships factory pre-configured with AVPro Edge NOS and IAVP (Intelligent A\/V Processing) — so integrators can deploy a full AV-over-IP system without specialized networking knowledge. With 740W total PoE budget, four 10G SFP+ uplink ports for stacking, and sub-2-second source-to-source switching with zero black frames, the SW48 is the recommended infrastructure layer for MXNet encoder and decoder deployments in commercial AV installations.

Using JPEG 2000 compression, the encoder delivers visually lossless 4K 4:4:4 60Hz video at near-zero latency over standard Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure. It is designed for scalable commercial installations where multiple HDMI sources must be distributed to any combination of displays without the constraints of fixed-port matrix switching. The AC-MXNET-1G-E integrates with MXNet MENTOR software for complete control over routing, EDID management, bandwidth allocation, and video wall configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AC-MXNET-1G-E connects to any HDMI 2.0 source — such as a media player, PC, camera, or cable box — and encodes the audio\/video signal into a JPEG 2000-compressed multicast stream transmitted over CAT 6A-recommended Ethernet or optionally via SFP fiber for long-haul runs. All connected decoders on the same managed L3 network can receive this stream, with routing controlled entirely through the MXNet MENTOR software interface. The encoder supports HDMI 2.0 up to 18Gbps and HDCP 2.3, making it compatible with protected 4K HDR content from streaming and Blu-ray sources. A built-in OLED Data Window on the front panel displays the unit's IP address, MAC address, or a custom alphanumeric label of up to 12 characters — a practical feature during initial setup and for ongoing diagnostics in equipment racks. All LEDs and the OLED display can be individually disabled for installations where visible status lights would be intrusive. The encoder also acts as the host for USB\/KVM operations, allowing a connected PC or device to be accessed from any decoder endpoint in the system via USB peripheral passthrough.

As with our standard Encoder, this is where the signal starts. However, the AC-MXNET-1G-AVDM-E Encoder was specifically designed to integrate with multi-zone stereo\/mono audio mixing systems.  The AC-MXNET-1G-AVDM-E Encoder employs a specialized audio processor chipset that can accept and decode Dolby Digital+, DTS-HD, and other lossless audio formats - and output those signals as stereo through the provided balanced stereo terminal block on the unit.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eConnect the MXNet 1G AVDM to any HDMI source, and it will encode the audio\/video signal into a multicast data format that can be routed to any Decoder endpoint within the project\/installation. As outlined above, it will also decode Dolby ATMOS, DTS-HD, and other lossless audio formats for connecting to a whole home or other distributed audio system. This device connects directly via category wires (CAT 5e or better) or fiber optics to the MXNet Switch (AC-MXNET-SW48 or SW24) and any other compatible multicast capable managed L3 network switch. The AC-MXNET-1G-AVDM-E Encoder is a part of the MXNet Ecosystem of AV-over-IP products from AVPro Edge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe AC-MXNET-1G-AVDM-E will encode a full 4K 4:4:4 60Hz HDMI video signal – along with audio, control, and power.  These signals are passed to single or multiple Decoder endpoints via multicast routing through an MXNet or multicast compatible L3 managed network switch. And, it does all this with next to zero latency. MXNet Encoders encode audio\/video\/control signals into IP packets using an optimized JPEG2000 codec at a flexible data rate (200Mbps for 1080p content, 300Mbps for 4K30 content, 850Mbps at peak).

Operating within a 1G network infrastructure, this decoder uses JPEG 2000 compression to deliver visually lossless 4K 4:4:4 60Hz video with near-zero latency across a multicast-capable managed L3 network. It pairs directly with the AC-MXNET-1G-E encoder and is designed to scale from simple point-to-point links to large, multi-source matrix distributions managed through the MXNet MENTOR software platform. The AC-MXNET-1G-D is a proven solution for commercial integrators who need reliable, scalable AV distribution without the limitations of traditional matrix switchers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the core of the MXNet distribution architecture, the AC-MXNET-1G-D Decoder receives multicast IP streams from any AC-MXNET-1G-E encoder via a standard CAT 5e or better Ethernet cable, or optionally via SFP fiber for extended runs. Once installed and configured through the MXNet MENTOR control software, each decoder becomes a fully addressable AV endpoint that can receive any source in the system with a simple routing command. The device natively supports HDMI 2.0 at up to 18Gbps bandwidth, HDCP 2.3, bi-directional RS-232 and IR control, and USB\/KVM passback — making it suitable for both display-only and interactive workstation deployments. A built-in OLED Data Window displays the unit's IP address, MAC address, or a custom label, streamlining installation and post-commissioning troubleshooting. All indicator LEDs and the OLED display can be fully disabled for discreet installs in client-facing environments where visible electronics would be unacceptable. The unit also supports encapsulated RS-232 over IP for serial device control at the display endpoint, reducing the need for additional control hardware at each screen location.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-mxnet-1g-d-mxnet-1g-decoderreceiving-device-creation-networks-47634.jpg?v=1757899356\" alt=\"AVPro Edge AC-MXNET-1G-D MXNet 1G Decoder front panel\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;text-align:left;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;text-align:left;\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eHDMI Version\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eHDMI 2.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eMax Bandwidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e18Gbps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eMax Resolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e4K UHD 60Hz 4:4:4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eHDCP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e2.3 and all earlier versions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNetwork Interface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e1G (CAT 5e or better) + SFP fiber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eControl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eRS-232, IR (bidirectional), USB\/KVM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eCompression\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eJPEG 2000 (visually lossless)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eManagement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eMXNet MENTOR software\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eDisplay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eBuilt-in OLED Data Window\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecodes JPEG 2000-compressed 4K 4:4:4 60Hz streams with near-zero latency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHDMI 2.0 output with 18Gbps bandwidth and HDCP 2.3 support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnects via standard CAT 5e or better Ethernet;

From there, the encoded signal is multicast across the network to any designated MXNet decoder endpoint — including standard rack-mount decoders and display-mounted decoder units. MXNet Mentor, AVPro Edge's graphical setup and routing software, manages the encoder alongside all other MXNet nodes, providing drag-and-drop routing, resolution scaling, video wall configuration, and EDID management from a single interface. The JPEG2000 codec used by MXNet supports both lossy and lossless compression modes, genlock for video wall synchronization, 10-bit color, and HDR color space information. A built-in OLED \"Data Window\" display on the encoder shows connection status and signal information without requiring a laptop, while full exterior light control allows all LEDs — including network link lights — to be disabled for discreet installations. RS-232 and IR signals can be routed through the encoder directly to one or multiple decoder endpoints, and a USB-B host port supports USB\/KVM device routing to a specified decoder for shared peripheral access.\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-mxnet-1g-ewp-mxnet-1g-wall-plate-encoder-device-creation-networks-40584.webp?v=1757899362\" alt=\"AVPro Edge AC-MXNET-1G-EWP MXNet Wall Plate Encoder\" style=\"max-width:100%;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"6\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"border-collapse:collapse;width:100%;\"\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eForm Factor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual-gang Decora wall plate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI Version\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI 2.0, 18Gbps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNetwork Rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1G maximum;

Supporting 4K60 4:4:4 at full HDMI 2.0 bandwidth (18Gbps) with HDCP 2.3, it handles the full range of HDR formats including Dolby Vision and HDR10+, making it a capable backbone for high-end boardroom, hospitality, and multi-zone display environments. Its integrated per-input Dolby Atmos and DTS:X downmixing — delivered independently on all 8 inputs simultaneously — is a specification that distinguishes it from standard 8x8 matrix switchers requiring external audio processors.

Supporting 18Gbps bandwidth and true 4K60 4:4:4 on all HDMI outputs, the unit uses AVPro's ICT (Invisible Compression Technology) to transmit full 18Gbps signals including HDR content over standard category cable on the HDBaseT outputs. This makes it the right choice for 4x4 matrix installations where some displays are locally connected via HDMI and others are in separate rooms connected via extended HDBaseT runs — all from the same output block without additional splitting hardware. EDID management, analog audio de-embedding, and audio delay are built in as standard, providing a complete signal management solution for commercial and residential integrators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC-MX-44HDBT routes any of four HDMI 2.0 sources to any of four output blocks independently. Each output block exposes one HDMI port and one HDBaseT port that mirror each other and are both active simultaneously.

Designed for commercial AV installations where sources need to reach both local displays via HDMI and remote displays over Cat cable, this 18Gbps 4K60 4:4:4 matrix delivers true signal integrity on both output types from a single rack-mount chassis. The HDBaseT outputs use AVPro Edge's ICT (Invisible Compression Technology) to carry 18Gbps-class signals over standard Cat5e\/6 infrastructure without the visible quality trade-offs of traditional HDBaseT compression. For conference rooms, training centers, and multi-zone commercial spaces requiring simultaneous local and remote display feeds from a single matrix, the AC-MX-88HDBT eliminates the need for separate signal splitters or secondary distribution amplifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of the AC-MX-88HDBT's eight output blocks delivers two active outputs simultaneously: a direct HDMI 2.0(a\/b) port and an HDBaseT port.

Both the HDMI port and the HDBaseT port on each output block carry the routed source signal simultaneously.

Unlike conventional matrices that pass audio unmodified, the AXION-4 downmixes bitstream audio — including Dolby Atmos and DTS-X — to 2-channel PCM on the de-embedded audio outputs, while the HDMI and HDBaseT video outputs carry the original full audio stream unimpeded. Integrators working on multi-zone residential or commercial installs with a mix of Atmos home theaters and standard 2-channel zones will find this matrix eliminates the need for external audio processing hardware. With ICT technology on the HDBaseT outputs, 18Gbps signals including HDR content are transmitted over standard category cable without visible compression artifacts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC-AXION-4 accepts four HDMI 2.0 sources and provides four output blocks, each with a mirrored HDMI port and an HDBaseT port that are both active simultaneously. This gives integrators up to eight simultaneous output connections (four HDMI + four HDBaseT) from a single 4x4 matrix core. The HDBaseT outputs use AVPro's ICT (Invisible Compression Technology), which compresses the 18Gbps signal for category cable transport while preserving HDR metadata and color depth in full integrity — the output is indistinguishable from a directly connected source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-axion-4-4-hdmi-input-4-hdbasethdmi-output-matrix-switcher-with-dolby-atmos-and-dts-audio-creation-networks-30897.jpg?v=1757899399\" alt=\"AVPro Edge AC-AXION-4 front panel\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AXION Interface (AEUI) is a fully redesigned web-based control platform built from the ground up by AVPro engineers.

Supporting 18Gbps bandwidth with HDMI 2.0(a\/b) and HDCP 2.3, it routes any of eight HDMI sources to any of eight HDMI displays simultaneously — a purpose-built solution for 8x8 HDMI matrix switching in hotels, sports bars, command centers, and corporate campuses. Built-in per-output scalers, advanced EDID management, and analog audio de-embedding make it a complete signal management platform rather than a simple switcher. Integrators seeking a true 4K60 4:4:4 HDMI matrix with on-board audio extraction and lip-sync correction will find the AC-MX-88 ready for the most demanding installs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC-MX-88 handles eight HDMI 2.0 sources and routes them independently to eight HDMI outputs, maintaining the full 18Gbps signal path from input to output without introducing HDBaseT compression on the video side. Each output features a dedicated 4K-to-1080p downscaler, allowing mixed-resolution display environments without forcing the entire system to the lowest common denominator. The AVPro Edge User Interface (AEUI) — built in-house by AVPro engineers — provides web-based access to EDID management, signal diagnostics, per-output audio routing, and scaler controls from any networked device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-mx-88-18gbps-true-4k60-4-4-4-8x8-matrix-creation-networks-95947.jpg?v=1757899401\" alt=\"AVPro Edge AC-MX-88 8x8 HDMI Matrix front panel\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDual audio de-embedding per output provides both a balanced analog output (2-channel PCM) and a Toslink digital output (up to 7-channel LPCM, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital+, DTS, DTS Master Audio) from every output simultaneously.

Designed specifically to solve the AVR bypass problem, it allows integrators to deliver uncompressed 4K HDR video directly to a display while routing a down-scaled HDMI signal — with original high-bitrate audio intact — into a legacy or audio-focused AV receiver. At $979, it is a purpose-built solution for home theater integrators, small commercial AV deployments, and any environment where audio and video paths need to be independently managed. Auto-switching and advanced EDID management further simplify commissioning and day-to-day operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC-MX-42 addresses one of the most common integration challenges in modern home theater: legacy AV receivers that cannot pass 18Gbps HDMI signals. Many high-quality AVRs excel at audio processing — Dolby Atmos, DTS-X, and high-bitrate PCM — but their HDMI video handling is limited to 10.2Gbps or lower. The AC-MX-42 solves this by providing two independently managed outputs: Output 1 delivers the full uncompressed 18Gbps signal to the display or projector, while Output 2 can be down-scaled to 1080p and routed into the AVR, preserving all original audio codecs without modification. This eliminates the need to compromise video quality to accommodate the audio chain. The matrix includes 29 onboard EDID profiles (including HDR variants), a dual audio de-embedding system with both balanced analog and optical Toslink outputs, and full IR, RS-232, and LAN control options with drivers available for Crestron, Control4, RTI, ELAN, and other leading control platforms.

It routes any of four HDMI 2.0 sources to any combination of four HDMI outputs while supporting full HDR, HDCP 2.3, and dual analog audio de-embedding with optical Toslink outputs. Per-output built-in scalers and comprehensive EDID management make the AC-MX-44 a practical choice for commercial 4K HDMI matrix distribution in systems with mixed display types. Audio delay, HDBaseT compatibility mode, and a built-in test pattern generator give integrators the diagnostic and calibration tools needed to commission installations cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AC-MX-44 supports 18Gbps bandwidth on every port, delivering 4K60 4:4:4, HDR10, Dolby Vision, HLG, and HDR10+ simultaneously across all four outputs. Dual audio de-embedding provides both balanced analog (2-channel PCM) and digital optical Toslink (up to 7.1 LPCM, Dolby Digital, DTS Master Audio) outputs per output zone, with three routing modes: bind to output, bind to input, or independent matrix. Per-output scalers downscale 4K to 1080p and 4:4:4 to 4:2:0 on individual outputs without affecting the rest of the system. Audio delay is configurable up to 630ms from the front panel, directly addressing lip-sync without external processing. The built-in AVPro Edge web-based UI allows EDID creation, signal health diagnostics, and simplified switching control — with a limited-access user mode for client self-service switching at bars and restaurants.

It is built for home theater and commercial AV installations where up to eight HDMI sources must be routed to two displays or downstream devices, with the option to include an AV receiver (AVR) in the signal path without compatibility issues. The auto-switching function detects active sources and selects inputs automatically, reducing the need for manual switching in rooms with predictable source usage patterns. At a 1U rack-mount form factor, it integrates cleanly into equipment racks alongside receivers, amplifiers, and other AV gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatrix switchers at 18Gbps are a specific category: most 8x2 products on the market cap bandwidth at 10.2Gbps (HDMI 1.4 \/ 2.0 without 4:4:4 at 60Hz), which introduces chroma subsampling at 4K60. The AC-MX-82RM carries the full 18Gbps HDMI 2.0b specification, preserving 4:4:4 color at 4K60Hz for applications where color accuracy matters — color-critical displays, medical imaging monitors, and high-end home theaters where the difference between 4:4:4 and 4:2:0 is visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/products\/av-pro-edge-ac-mx-82rm-18gbps-4k60-4-4-4-8x2-matrix-and-auto-switchavr-bypass-creation-networks-26154.jpg?v=1757899413\" alt=\"AVPro Edge AC-MX-82RM 8x2 matrix switcher front panel\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AVR bypass mode is a distinguishing feature for home theater integrators. When an AV receiver is placed between the matrix output and a display, standard EDID and HDCP handshake issues are common.

Video is delivered at up to 4K UHD at 60Hz with 4:2:0 chroma subsampling and HDCP 2.2 compliance. Audio de-embedding is included, allowing the audio feed to be broken out to a separate amplifier or DSP without additional hardware.

It supports quad-split, picture-in-picture, side-by-side, and full-screen viewing modes, making it the practical choice for control room monitoring, broadcast production, and multi-source presentation environments. At 4K resolution with HDR support, each windowed source maintains sharp, usable image quality rather than the soft or artifact-laden output common in lower-cost multiviewers.

The device supports multiple layout modes — quad view (four equal windows), picture-in-picture with a selectable main source, side-by-side, and full-screen single source — switchable from the front panel, IR remote, RS-232, or IP. Each viewing mode maintains the source aspect ratio and delivers a clean, correctly scaled window on the output display. The output resolution is 4K60 4:4:4 with HDR, so the composited view looks sharp on large-format 4K monitors and video walls. Audio extraction is built in, allowing the operator to select which source's audio plays on the output regardless of the video layout.

It supports 4K60 4:4:4 full-chroma video, includes a universal scaler for handling mismatched source and display resolutions, and provides balanced audio extraction for routing audio to professional sound systems. The HDMI loop-out port enables cascading — connecting a second processor downstream to expand the wall beyond four panels without replacing the primary unit. For integrators specifying 1x4 video wall processors with balanced audio and cascading capability for retail, hospitality, corporate, or public space installations, the AC-FRESCO-CAP-4 covers all primary requirements in a single device.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 1x4 video wall processor takes one video source and distributes it across four displays arranged in a row or column, scaling and cropping each output so the displays together present a single continuous image.

This removes the need for a separate audio extractor in the signal chain. The HDMI loop-out port passes the source signal to a downstream processor or distribution amplifier, allowing a second processor to be chained for an 8-panel wall, or the signal to be sent simultaneously to another destination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/CN_AC-FRESCO-CAP-4_1.jpg?v=1757951674\" alt=\"AVPro

This is the standard (non-TAA) version of the kit, suited for commercial AV installations, corporate deployments, and educational environments where federal procurement compliance is not a requirement. The point-to-point design creates a dedicated USB link between the transmitter and receiver, avoiding the latency and device compatibility issues that can occur with hub-based USB extension approaches. Plug-and-play operation means no driver installation is required for most USB 2.0 devices, reducing setup time during system commissioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUSB peripherals are increasingly central to AV installations — PTZ cameras, USB microphones, interactive whiteboards, touch displays, and control interfaces all rely on USB connectivity, and the 5-meter native USB distance limit makes permanent AV installations impractical without an extender. The AVPro Edge USB 2.0 Point-to-Point Extender Kit resolves this by transmitting full 480 Mbps USB 2.0 bandwidth over CAT5e cabling already present in most commercial buildings. The transmitter connects to the host computer's USB port, and the receiver connects to the USB peripheral, with a CAT5e cable of appropriate length between them. No additional power supplies, hubs, or software are needed for most standard USB 2.0 devices. The dedicated point-to-point signal path maintains data integrity and device responsiveness over the extension distance, which is particularly important for USB audio and video devices that are sensitive to latency or packet loss. For installations requiring TAA compliance or Made-in-USA sourcing, see the TAA-compliant version of this kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cimg
