The Extron CrossPoint 124 Matrix Switchers are 12x4 analog RGBHV matrix switchers. There are two versions offered: “HV” versions for switching RGBHV signals and “HVA” versions for switching RGBHV signals and two channel stereo audio (balanced and unbalanced). All models also switch RGBS, RGsB, HDTV, component video, S-video, and composite video.

The CrossPoint 124 matrix switchers provide a single box solution to many routing applications. Each input and output is individually isolated and buffered, and any input(s) can be switched to any one or all outputs with virtually no crosstalk or signal noise between channels. Extron designed the CrossPoint 124 matrix switchers to deliver optimum performance and value to the professional A/V market.

Features

RGBHV- The CrossPoint 124HV models switch separate horizontal and vertical sync to ensure proper sync polarity, providing a more stable image. All models switch RGBS, RGsB, HDTV, component video, S-video, and composite video.
200 MHz (-3dB) RGB video bandwidth, fully loaded– Ensures switching and distribution of most signals without degradation. The 200 MHz (-3dB) rating is a worst case specification, i.e., the CrossPoint 124 Matrix Switchers provide 200 MHz (-3dB) at full performance capacity— when one input signal drives all outputs.
QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller (QS-FPC )– The QuickSwitch FPC feature allows for touch-of-a-button input and output selection. Extron QuickSwitch technology eliminates the learning curve usually associated with switching the inputs and outputs of a matrix switcher by using a tactile front panel button for every input and output.
Front panel I/O label windows- I/O buttons may be labeled by any Brother P-Touch labeler or Extron label software, which ships with every Extron matrix switcher. Each input and output can be labeled with names, alphanumeric characters, or even color bitmaps for easy and intuitive input and output selection.
View I/O mode- Allows user to easily see which individual inputs and outputs are actively connected. Available from the front panel or RS-232 and RS-422 control.
Global presets- Individual I/O configurations may be saved and recalled either from the QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller or RS-232 and RS-422. This time-saving feature allows you to set up I/O configurations and store them in memory for future use.
RS-232 and RS-422 control- The CrossPoint 124 switchers offer RS-232 and RS-422 control, allowing the switcher to be controlled via a third party control system. Extron’s SIS™—used for RS-232 and RS-422 control—is easy to learn, and use, and allows users to generate characters directly from a keyboard.
Simple Instruction Set (SIS™)- Extron SIS is a set of basic ASCII code commands that provide simple control through a third party control system. Instead of programming in long, obscure strings of code, SIS makes it easy to operate an Extron product using RS-232 and RS-422 control.
Control software- For RS-232 and RS-422 remote control from a PC, Extron ships our Windows®-based control software with every matrix switcher. This icon-driven software uses a graphical, drag-and-drop interface to make I/O configuration and other customization functions simple and convenient. This software also offers an emulation mode for configuration of an offsite matrix switcher; the I/O configuration may then be saved for future downloading to the matrix switcher.
MCP 1000 and MKP 1000 control- Utilizing the MCP 1000 Master Control Panel and any combination of MCP 1000 slave control panels or MKP 1000 control keypads offers the flexibility to control a CrossPoint 124 Matrix Switcher from a remote location. Both remote control options are easy to use and provide tactile buttons for quick selection. Each MCP 1000 panel may be used for one-button switching for a particular output and selecting global presets. Each MKP 1000 keypad may be used to select a different input or select a preset.
Input audio gain and attenuation (adjustable via RS-232 and RS-422 or front panel)- The Extron CrossPoint Series allows users to set the level of audio gain or attenuation (-15dB to +9dB). Individual input audio levels may be adjusted so there are no noticeable volume differences between sources.
Audio breakaway- The CrossPoint 124HVA provides the capability to break away an audio signal from its corresponding video signal. Audio breakaway switching can be done via front panel control or RS-232 and RS-422 control.
Rack-mountable- The Extron CrossPoint 124 matrix switchers are mountable in any conventional 19-inch wide rack.
Internal international power supply- The 100-240 volt, autoswitchable, internal power supply provides worldwide power compatibility. MKP 1000 & MCP 1000
