Extron IPCP Pro 350 xi IPCP Pro xi Control Processor

Product Description

The Extron IPCP Pro 350 xi control processor is a versatile, high-performance control processor built for centralized AV control in mid-size commercial applications. It pairs an upgraded single-core processor with 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of Flash, delivering faster project uploads and the runtime performance needed for more sophisticated control programs. With Gigabit Ethernet, advanced security standards, and a broad mix of onboard control ports, this Extron control processor coordinates displays, switchers, sources, lighting, and room peripherals from a single half-rack device, making it well suited to conference rooms, training rooms, lecture halls, and divisible spaces.

As an IP Link Pro control processor, the IPCP Pro 350 xi supports TouchLink Pro touchpanels, Network Button Panels, eBUS button panels, and IPL EXP expansion interfaces over standard network infrastructure. Its integrated three-port unmanaged network switch simplifies connection of touchpanels and other network-controlled devices, while three serial ports, two IR/serial ports with IR learning, four digital I/O ports, four relays, and a dedicated eBUS port provide direct control of nearly any device type in the room. Secure communication protocols including HTTPS, SSH, SFTP, and IEEE 802.1X protect the control network, and native BACnet, KNX, and DALI support extends control to HVAC, lighting, power, fire, and security systems.

The IPCP Pro 350 xi is configured with Global Configurator Plus or Global Configurator Professional, or programmed with Global Scripter, and supports Extron LinkLicense to expand functionality over time. GlobalViewer Enterprise provides centralized AV resource monitoring and management across networked rooms. For smaller rooms that need a more compact processor, compare the Extron IPCP Pro S1 xi control processor, or browse related control hardware in the Extron collection.

Key Features

• Upgraded Processor and Memory — An upgraded single-core processor with 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of Flash delivers faster project uploads, quicker runtime performance, and support for more sophisticated control programs.
• IP Link Pro Endpoint Support — The processor manages TouchLink Pro touchpanels, Network Button Panels, eBUS button panels, and IPL EXP expansion interfaces over a standard Ethernet network.
• Integrated Three-Port Network Switch — A built-in unmanaged three-port Gigabit switch simplifies connection of touchpanels and other network-controlled devices at the processor.
• Comprehensive Serial Control — Two bidirectional RS-232 ports plus one bidirectional RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 port provide direct control of multiple serially controlled devices.
• IR and Serial Ports with IR Learning — Two programmable IR/serial ports and integrated IR learning capture remote codes and provide one-way control of external devices.
• Digital I/O and Relays — Four configurable digital I/O ports and four normally open relays interface with sensors, screens, and other room systems.
• Secure Communication Protocols — The processor supports HTTPS, SSH, SFTP, SMTP, NTP, and IEEE 802.1X authentication for port-based network access control.
• Building Management Integration — Native BACnet, KNX, and DALI support coordinates HVAC, lighting, power, fire, and security systems with the AV control system.
• Central File Deployment — A primary control processor automatically transfers project files, configurations, and programs to other endpoints as they come online, accelerating commissioning.
• Compact Half-Rack Enclosure — A 1U-high, half-rack-wide metal enclosure with convection cooling mounts on an optional rack shelf or furniture bracket.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What devices can the IPCP Pro 350 xi control?

The processor controls AV and room devices over Ethernet, three serial ports, two IR/serial ports, four digital I/O ports, four relays, and an eBUS port, so it can manage displays, projectors, switchers, sources, screens, lighting, and sensors from a single unit.

Does the IPCP Pro 350 xi include a network switch?

Yes. It has an integrated three-port unmanaged Gigabit network switch, which makes it easy to connect touchpanels and other network-controlled devices directly at the processor without a separate switch.

How is the IPCP Pro 350 xi configured and programmed?

It is configured with Global Configurator Plus or Global Configurator Professional and can be programmed with Global Scripter. GlobalViewer Enterprise provides centralized monitoring and management for multi-room deployments.

How does the IPCP Pro 350 xi compare to the IPCP Pro S1 xi?

The 350 xi offers far more onboard control ports, including the integrated switch, relays, digital I/O, and eBUS, for larger rooms. The compact Extron IPCP Pro S1 xi suits smaller spaces. Both appear in the Extron collection.

What warranty and support are included?

The IPCP Pro 350 xi carries a 3-year parts and labor warranty, and the included Extron Everlast power supply is covered for 7 years. Creation Networks assists commercial AV buyers with product selection and system integration.
