ABOUT YOUR MX2456RM 2
The MX2456RM is a video and audio switcher with
six VGA inputs, which can be connected to a single
VGA output and six stereo or balanced audio inputs,
which can be connected to a single stereo or
balanced audio output. It allows the non-
simultaneous connection of up to six computers or
six video and six audio sources to a monitor or
projector and to any audio system.
The MX2456RM can pass a variety of video signal
types: RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, Component Video (Y,
R-Y, B-Y), S-Video and Composite Video. The
MX2456RM is controllable by using its built-in front
panel or through RS-232.
Each of the VGA inputs is ground loop isolated and
can promote individual equalization of video gain
according to different cable lengths.
The MX2456RM has a video bandwidth of 300 MHz
and an audio bandwidth of 40 kHz.
