When a MediaLink Controller Beats a Touchpanel

Plenty of rooms do not need a touchpanel. A classroom with one display, a laptop input, and a projector screen is better served by a wall controller with clearly labeled buttons that anyone can use on the first try. That is what the Extron MediaLink MLC family is for. The MLC Plus 100 and MLC Plus 200 install on the wall in standard gang boxes, the PoE models need only a network cable, and the MLC 226 IP adds networked control and monitoring for facilities teams that want visibility across a building.

Because most models ship with both black and white faceplates and EU and MK formats are available, one specification can be repeated across a campus or an international portfolio. Creation Networks stocks MediaLink controllers alongside Extron IPCP Pro processors, NBP and eBUS button panels, and TLP Pro touchpanels for rooms that do need a screen.

Frequently Asked Questions About Extron MediaLink MLC

Q: What does a MediaLink controller actually control?
A: Display power and input, source selection, volume, and in many models projector screens, shades, or lighting through relays and serial or IR control.

Q: Do MLC controllers need a separate control processor?
A: No. MediaLink controllers are self-contained room controllers. Add an IPCP Pro processor only when the room grows beyond what the controller can drive on its own.

Q: Which models support PoE?
A: The MLC Plus network AV control panels are powered over Ethernet, so installation is a single cable to the wall box. Check the individual product page for the model you are specifying.

Q: Are EU and MK versions available?
A: Yes. Models such as the MLC 62 RS EU and MLC 84 Plus EU are built for EU and MK wallplate formats, which keeps a global room standard consistent.

Q: Do I get both faceplate colors?
A: Many MediaLink models ship with both black and white faceplates in the box, so the same SKU works whatever the wall finish turns out to be.
