Wireless HD Multipoint Extender
MPX1550: High-definition audio and video
The Avocent Emerge MPX1550 multipoint extender provides wireless or wired connectivity for
distribution of high-definition content from a source to one or more destinations. The MPX1550
extender combines Avocent’s field-proven MPX technology with IEEE 802.11n MIMO-based
radios, thereby setting the highest standard for wireless HD video distribution in terms of visual
acuity, transmission distance, and noise immunity.
With the MPX1550 system, deployment of a single stream of media to many displays can be
accomplished in minutes, even under the most challenging of conditions, with a degree of
reliability and quality that rivals a dedicated source device at each and every display. Unlike
multiple source devices, however, video and audio remain in perfect lockstep across all displays
and failure-prone moving parts are kept to a minimum.
Designed for professional A/V applications involving both motion video and computer graphics,
Emerge MPX1550 extenders feature an integrated digital video interface (DVI-I) connector that
offers supports direct connection to HDMI, DVI-D, DVI-A, RGB and component source and
display devices.
For ease of installation and configuration, Emerge MPX1550 extenders feature an on-board web
server. The web interface also offers powerful diagnostic tools for remote or local management. All
Emerge MPX1550 products are field upgradeable to support future functionality.

Emerge MPX1550 extenders integrate Avocent’s field-proven MPX video extension and
distribution engine with 802.11n radio technology and MIMO-based smart antennas. The result
is a video and audio distribution solution that delivers unparalleled performance, range, and
reliability. MPX1550 products are ideally-suited for use in a wide range of critical viewing
applications that require one-to-many distribution, such as: informational displays, corporate
signage, boardrooms, courtrooms, medical, military, and education.
