Macnica To Launch First AV Over IP Gateway Exclusive To IPMX

MEG1 ethernet gateway comes to market for IPMX product developers as IPMX suite of standards moves closer to ratification.
Macnica’s active involvement in IPMX product and standards development over the past several years is bearing fruits with the introduction of the AV industry’s first gateway exclusive to the IPMX suite of standards.
At ISE 2024, Macnica will unveil its MEG1 IPMX to HDMI AV over IP ethernet gateway, a 1Gb/s solution that provides a direct ramp to IPMX product development for ProAV and broadcast equipment manufacturers.
The MEG1 is adapted from Macnica’s proven reference design for IPMX compliant product development, supporting low-latency, synchronized transport of 4K60 4:4:4 video, audio and data, including KVM and PoE support. It is ideally suited to support lab-based research, development and testing efforts for IP product developers preparing to bring IPMX solutions to market.
The MEG1 supports all features required for IP interoperability, including device discovery, USB and serial extension, resilient network performance, JPEG-XS compression, and subframe latency. The MEG1 offers impressive bandwidth, with the ability to send or receive IPMX compliant video streams at up to 800 Mb/s over a 1Gb connection. It also features a competitive power profile for PoE devices, and includes a scripting environment that provides additional freedom for feature development and automation.
