1. INTRODUCTION
The KanexPro SDVoE powered Modular Matrix system is the most versatile flexible video
distribution solution. The system is composed of transceiver devices that can be configured
as either video transmitters or receivers with a simple click of a mouse. The whole system
is controlled and configured by a single control module which makes setup a snap. Add the
system to a 10G network and enjoy UHD 4K Lossless video with zero latency.
The KanexPro Flexible matrix transceiver (EXT-PROMATRIXUSB) is an SDVoE IP powered
encoder/decoder solution. Each transceiver features with one HDMI input and output, three USB
2.0, phoenix connectors for audio in and out and a LAN (Ethernet) port with RS-232 control
port. The encoders use the advanced SDVoE technology to transmit full UHD 4K/60 video from
HDMI based devices with lossless video and audio with absolutely zero latency. It supports POE
(power over Ethernet) when connected with a POE network switch with distances over a single
CAT6a up to 330 ft. (100m) delivering one to one, one to many and many to many over the 10G
Ethernet switch.
Additionally, this unit supports matrix, video wall, picture in picture (PiP) and multiviewer modes
when controller (EXT-PROCTRL) is connected to the network. The controller configures settings
of all connected Transmitter/Receiver units, including IP address, netmask and extender status
are clearly displayed within the WebGUI. The WebGUI is easily accessed via a web browser over
a normal network connection or by directly connecting an HDMI display and USB keyboard &
mouse to the control unit. A trigger input interface is also provided to allow the easy addition
of a remote-control keypad, or other trigger-supporting devices, which can be installed within
a podium or within a table in a conference room or classroom. This interface manages stored
presets with the simple press of a button. Standard control is available via WebGUI (remote or
local), RS-232, Telnet, IR Remote and triggers.
The use of high quality 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports and Cat.6A or better cable allows for point-to-
point transmission of the video signal up to 100m. Multiple control and data signals may also be
transmitted along with the audio and video, including IR, RS-232, USB 2.0, and Ethernet.
The integrated USB hub of each transceiver can be configured to be in USB Host or Device
Mode and can function as a simple point to point KVM extension, freely routed between any
two endpoints, or it can be configured into a special “Simultaneous” mode, allowing up to 7
Host Mode transceivers to extend their USB ports to a single Device Mode transceiver. This type
of USB KVM routing flexibility enables a wide range of multi-user, control room, or on-demand
installation scenarios.
The unit may be powered directly by PoE when connected via Cat.6A to a 10 Gigabit Ethernet
switch that provides PoE (802.3at) allowing for great flexibility in installation location. The
built-in EDID and HDCP management functionality enables the unit to fit into every situation.
Basic configuration of the unit can be achieved via front panel buttons with an OSD (On-Screen
Display). Advanced control requires the optional EXT-PROCTRL system controller.
