{"product_id":"extron-mlc-64-rs-vcd-medialink-controller","title":"Extron MLC 64 RS VCD MediaLink Controller","description":"\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe Extron MLC 64 RS VCD Series MediaLink Controllers combine intuitive AV system control with a built-in local analog input in a single-gang Decora-style wall-mount format. Featuring six customizable backlit soft-touch buttons, a rotary volume control with LED level indication, and integrated female VGA (15-pin HD) plus 3.5 mm stereo audio pass-through, these controllers place both room controls and a convenient source connection point directly at the wall for streamlined presenter workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThis series addresses the need for a unified wall-plate solution in spaces where users frequently bring analog laptops or legacy devices. The VGA\/audio pass-through routes signals cleanly to the AV system without tabletop adapters or extra cables, while RS-232 and IR ports provide direct control of projectors, displays, switchers, scalers, and amplifiers for power, source switching, volume, and preset functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eConstructed with durable plastic housings and illuminated buttons available in white or black finishes, the MLC 64 RS VCD fits standard US Decora-style single-gang electrical boxes while delivering a clean, professional appearance that complements modern interiors. Backlit buttons ensure readability in dimmed rooms, and customizable engraving options allow tailored labeling for room functions, instructions, or branding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003ePrimary applications include classrooms, lecture halls, training rooms, small-to-medium conference rooms, and huddle spaces where instructors or presenters require both simple AV control and a reliable local analog input. The controllers are especially valuable in educational and corporate environments that still support legacy VGA sources alongside modern digital workflows, reducing setup time and eliminating clutter at the presentation area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eCompatibility centers on Extron AV devices such as matrix switchers, distribution amplifiers, scalers, and amplifiers, as well as third-party projectors, displays, and analog sources via RS-232, IR, and the integrated VGA\/audio pass-through. The series integrates with Extron control systems for expanded functionality when required, while the built-in IR learner and RS-232 pass-through simplify setup for common AV components without additional hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eInstallation is efficient and code-compliant: mount the controller in a standard Decora-style single-gang electrical box, connect power via the included 12 VDC supply, wire RS-232 and IR ports to AV equipment, route VGA and audio cables through the rear pass-through openings to the system input or display, and configure basic functions using Extron's configuration software or pre-loaded presets. The design supports quick field adjustments, easy servicing, and a flush, professional wall appearance that meets US Decora standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eFeatures
