Extron has released the IPCP Pro S1 xi, a high-performance, compact control processor designed for centralised AV control in small-to-medium size applications.

Featuring enhanced performance with greater processing power, the IPCP Pro S1 xi boasts twice the memory of the IP Link Pro series.

Ethernet monitoring and control allows you to manage AV devices using a standard Ethernet network. It also features one bidirectional RS-232 serial port with hardware and software handshaking, advanced security standards and Gigabit Ethernet, which ensures compatibility with multiple TouchLink Pro touchpanels, Network Button Panels, and IPL EXP expansion interfaces using a standard network infrastructure.

Extron vice president of worldwide sales and marketing Casey Hall says the unit is an ideal choice for AV applications that require a powerful but compact processor.

“As the latest member of our IPCP Pro xi Series, this new control processor is loaded with advanced features and improved performance, Its compact size allows it to be easily mounted in a variety of locations for a broad range of applications.”

The Extron IPCP Pro S1 xi can be configured using Global Configurator Plus or Global Configurator Professional software or programmed using Extron Global Scripter. For enterprise-wide applications, GlobalViewer Enterprise can provide centralized AV resource monitoring, management, and control over a computer network.

In addition, the IPCP Pro S1 xi supports Extron LinkLicense, which further enhances the capabilities of Extron control systems.
