Televic Plixus MME + Dante Multimedia Engine - 71.98.2905

Product Overview

The Televic Plixus MME + Dante is a 19-inch rack-mountable multimedia engine that serves as the central processing hub for Plixus-based conference systems requiring both multimedia handling and Dante audio networking. It controls all delegate units on the Plixus network while providing high-quality audio distribution via the built-in Dante card—enabling direct integration with Dante-enabled DSPs, amplifiers, and audio systems. The engine supports up to 80 Plixus units directly, with expansion available via Plixus Network Extenders for larger installations. For AV integrators deploying hybrid or high-capacity conference rooms, the MME + Dante combines conference system control, multimedia processing, and professional audio networking in a single 1U-equivalent chassis.

Product Description

The Plixus MME + Dante is designed for conference installations where multimedia signal handling and audio network integration are both required. The engine controls all connected Plixus delegate units, managing microphone activation, audio routing, and system logic without a dedicated PC. The integrated Dante card enables the system to exchange audio with any Dante-enabled device on the network—including DSPs, recorders, and third-party AV equipment—without analog breakout or additional converters. By default, 3G-SDI video is also available via HDMI connection for multimedia rooms requiring video distribution. The minimalistic front panel provides direct access to common system functions, reducing operator complexity during live meetings. For AV system designers working on government chambers, multi-purpose rooms, or large conference deployments, the MME + Dante provides the signal routing flexibility required for complex integration environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Plixus MME and the Plixus AE-S?
The MME (Multimedia Engine) handles both audio and multimedia (video) signal processing and includes Dante networking. The AE-S (Audio Engine) is audio-only. Choose the MME for rooms requiring multimedia support or Dante integration.

Does the Plixus MME + Dante require a dedicated PC to operate?
No. The engine runs conference system logic independently. A PC may be used with CoCon or Confero software for advanced meeting management, but is not required for basic conference operation.

How many delegate units can the MME support?
The MME controls up to 80 Plixus units directly. Larger installations can be expanded using Plixus Network Extenders.

Is the Dante card included or optional?
The Dante card is included with the MME + Dante model (71.98.2905). It is not available as a field upgrade on the base MME model.

What third-party systems can the MME integrate with?
Via Dante, the MME connects to any Dante-compatible DSP, amplifier, recorder, or audio system. External control ports also support camera control systems, central software, and open API integration.
