XTP CrossPoint Series • Introduction
3
By adding or removing I/O boards within certain rules are detailed in
on page 14, you can expand and contract the matrix switcher from a 4-input by
4-output matrix to up to:
•
XTP CrossPoint 1600
— A 16-input by 16-output matrix
•
XTP CrossPoint 3200
— A 32-input by 32 output matrixThe matrix switchers can be
remotely controlled via their rear panel Remote
RS-232/RS-422 ports, their rear panel LAN port, and their front panel Configuration
(USB) port by any of the following:
•
A control system
•
A PC
•
An Extron MKP 2000 remote control panel
•
An Extron MKP 3000 remote control panel
•
(RS-232/RS-422 only)
An Extron MCP 100 remote control panel
•
(RS-232/RS-422 only)
An Extron MKP 1000 remote keypad
Control can be via the Extron XTP System Configuration Software, the Simple Instruction
Set (SIS), or HTML pages (LAN port control only). The SIS is a set of basic ASCII code
commands (see
on page 76) that provide simple control through a
control system or PC. The built-in Web pages (see
on page 121) can be
accessed via the LAN port using a Web browser such as the Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer
®
.
The matrix switchers are housed in rack-mountable, metal enclosures with mounting flanges
for standard 19-inch racks.

The base XTP CrossPoint1600 ships with two internal power supplies on a single AC
connection that provide 12 V and 48 V. It can be ordered with two additional optional
redundant (12 V and 48 V) power supplies. The customer cannot install the redundant
power supplies.
The XTP CrossPoint 3200 ships with three 12 V internal power supplies and one 48 V
power supply, on a single AC connection. The matrix switcher can operate using two of the
12 V supplies with the third as a hot backup. The fourth supply provides power over the
XTP connection to remote devices (Power over XTP [PoX]).
The 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power supplies in the XTP CrossPoint 1600 and
XTP CrossPoint 3200 provide worldwide power compatibility and reliability. Front panel
LEDs indicate good and failed status for each supply.
Endpoint Configuration
In an XTP system, the transmitters connected to the input boards and the receivers
connected to the output boards are known as “endpoints.”
When you configure an XTP system (consisting of an XTP CrossPoint matrix switcher and
its connected endpoints), connect a computer to the matrix switcher and configure the
endpoints from the matrix switcher. Do not connect the computer directly to the endpoint
for configuration when it is part of an XTP system.
