SPOTLIGHT: Enova
A new, innovative philosophy on how you think about A/V technology: Enova is part of an evolution to collaborate, communicate and educate using AV technology. Visit www.amx.com/enova/ to learn more.

InstaGate Pro™ Technology

No tools, no delays and no key constraints. AMX's exclusive InstaGate Pro Technology allows traditionally key limited sources to be freely switched to any display without the typical HDCP delays.

OVERVIEW
The DXLink HDMI Transmitter sends HDMI with HDCP, control, and Ethernet up to 100 meters over a single standard twisted pair cable. As part of a complete distribution system, use the DXLink Transmitter with the Enova® DGX DXLink Twisted Pair Input Boards or compatible Enova DVX All-In-One Presentation Switchers. The DXLink Transmitter can also be used as a point-to-point solution with the DXLink HDMI Receiver. The DXLink Transmitter can be powered from any DXLink power source such as the Enova DGX DXLink Twisted Pair Input Board or the Enova DVX-3155HD or DVX-2155HD, and it also includes a local power supply.

COMMON APPLICATIONS
The DXLink HDMI Transmitter is ideal for any long distance HDMI run. It is designed to send HDMI and control signals to a remote display across the room, on the other side of the house or to a classroom down the hall. The transmitter has built-in control ports that can be used to control a source and the ICSLan port provides an IP access point.

FEATURES

  • Only One Cable – Send audio and video while passing control, Ethernet, and power over one twisted pair cable
  • Send HDMI signals up to 100 meters – Extend the reach of the HDMI signals far beyond the capabilities of typical HDMI cabling
  • HDMI port – Supports HDMI with HDCP, DisplayPort or DVI signals using the appropriate breakout cable
  • Standard Twisted Pair Cable – Save time and effort in installation by leveraging cost effective twisted pair cable
  • HDCP Compliant

  • Power Remotely - Power is carried over one twisted pair cable to simplify installation when used with the Enova DGX Digital Media Switcher or Enova DVX-3155HD and Enova DVX-2155HD All-In-One Presentation Switchers
  • Ethernet Connectivity - Provides ICSLan Ethernet support at the Transmitter - add Ethernet connectivity to a Touch Panel, plug in a WAP or stream IP audio/video to a Ethernet enabled source device
  • 3D Support* Coming Soon - Pass through latest video formats including 3D and Deep Color
  • Surround Sound Support Coming Soon - Pass through high definition surround sound including DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD
  • USB Support Coming Soon – Delivers signals from a remote keyboard and mouse to locally connected PC

*Only supported when the DXLink HDMI RX Scaler is in bypass mode

DEALER BENEFITS

  • HDMI/HDCP with the Simplicity of Analog - Hassle-free plug-and-play operation eliminates the need for time consuming, cumbersome work-around tools to deal with HDCP key constraints and resolution incompatibilities
  • Simplified Design and Installation - Audio, video, control, Ethernet and power are distributed over one twisted pair cable speeding up installation at remote endpoints
  • Reduce Network Drops - Centralized Ethernet communication from the Enova DGX can be implemented with the ICSLan port - providing IP access points at every DXLink Transmitter and Receiver

CUSTOMER BENEFITS

  • Interruption-Free Content - Exclusive InstaGate Pro™ Technology allows audio and video to be switched quickly and easily to every connected display without the difficulties typically associated with HDCP
  • Audio, Video and Control Everywhere - Compact low-profile design and remote powering capabilities allows the transmitter to be installed in discreet locations out of sight without additional wiring

*Cable quality required in order to meet 100 meter distance should meet ANSI/TIA/EIA 568A-5 or better specification and be rated for 250 MHz or better. For cable runs approaching the 100m limit, Cat6/6e, Cat6a or Cat7 is recommended. It is recommended that the cabling between AMX systems/devices be a uniform run of solid core cabling with no patch cables or extensions. If a patch cable is required (for example, between a patch panel and an AMX device), the patch cable should be limited to 5 m total on each end. Best results have been seen using a Cat6 coupling device for attaching the cables together even when using lower rated Cat5e cabling. Important Notice: DXLink twisted pair cable runs for DXLink equipment should only be run within a common building
