MX-100CC 

Thank you for purchasing the MX-100CC shelf top digital video media system.  This product was 
specifically designed to enhance the value of TVs used in restaurants, bars, pubs, small hotels, schools 
and other institutions that utilize linear TV such as COAX and IPTV.   Using the existing coax 
infrastructure, or traditional IPTV, the MX-100CC enables the capture and encode of high definition 
video, RTSP security cameras, file playback of prerecorded HD video files.  This video can be streamed 
onto a TV channel or combined with HTML5 multi-media advertisement and notifications to create a 
custom multimedia channel that delivers both video and your messages.  The MX-100CC also supports 
venue wide display controls over existing coax wiring.   This document will help you get the MX-100CC 
up and running quickly.  For your convenience a quick start section is provide at the end of this
