The MXNet 1G Downmixing Encoder/Transmitter Device from AVPro Edge is similar to the Encoder/Transmitter, but it also adds audio downmixing from Dolby Atmos, DTS-HD, and other high-end audio to embedded stereo via the HDMI output to accommodate stereo systems that don't have surround capabilities. The device connects to your network to send IP video for video walls, digital signage, or high resolution monitoring. The encoder inputs up to 4K60 4:4:4 video from the MXNet switch or a multicast-capable L3 switch over Gigabit Ethernet or extend the distance via an optional fiber module in the SFP slot, and it outputs HDMI video up to 4K60 to a local display for monitoring. The transmitter encodes HDMI video and transmits it with near zero latency with a maximum 1 GB/s data rate, outputting visually lossless video.

The transmitter/encoder fits right into the MXNet device ecosystem, and it can be configured and managed by the MXNet MENTOR control tool. Other features include EDID support, HDR and Dolby Vision support, DTS and Dolby audio support, a data status display, RS-232 and IR signaling pass-through support, USB and KVM support, and you can even turn off all the LED status lights on the unit so it can be installed discreetly.
