Morph it | As its name implies, Magenta’s Morph-It™ Cat5 distribution platform may be configured for a variety
of different video transmission and switching applications. The Morph-It platform includes a 4U,
16-slot frame and a selection of multiple accessory cards, which are powered via the Morph-It’s
backplane.
Combining MultiView Dual EQ cards with a MultiView Matrix or Mondo Matrix can add +/- 500 feet
of effective cable length. Especially useful in a switched environment, the ability to null input distances
results in users setting skew and EQ for cable length once, rather than adjusting every time a new input
and source are paired. This solution eliminates the need for input Cat5/UTP lengths to be similar.
Another benefit is the potential to use shorter distance MultiView receivers on the display end,
thus reducing equipment costs. For example, the illustration on page two demonstrates how less expensive
AK600 receivers can replace AK1200 receivers.
Morph-It also accepts MultiView Dual Transmitter Cards. With its 16 slots, Morph-It can hold and
power 32 transmitters in 4U (see page two), compared to the 10U that would be needed to more
conventionally rack mount and power 32 MultiView UTx Transmitters — saving 6U of rack space,
installation labor and at least 25% of the equipment cost. (Morph-It is cost effective when there are 12
or more sources co-located).
Dual (redundant) power supplies are a standard feature of the Morph-It platform.
Multiple versions of the Dual Transmitter Card address a variety of user needs, and are listed in the Specifications section. |

HD-One Kit |
Traditional HDMI over UTP products require a pair of CatX cables (typically with at least one shielded cable required) in order to remotely send video, audio and HDCP signals from a transmitter to a receiver. Now, Magenta Research offers a single cable HDMI extension solution! HD-One passes 1080p resolution video, audio and HDCP signals to 150 feet/46 meters and 1080i/720p to 200 feet/61 meters, all on one Cat6 cable. Additionally, only the HD-One transmitter requires power as the receiver is powered remotely via the UTP cable. HD-One’s distance reach and use of inexpensive, easy to terminate UTP cable, make this product an obvious choice for HDMI extension whether it’s a Blu-Ray player, a cable/set-top box or a PC with an HDMI output. Such distances are virtually impossible to replicate using specially constructed HDMI cables, which, even at short distances, deteriorate image quality, are extremely difficult to terminate in the field and carry a high cost factor.

| Mondo TC | Mondo Touch Controller |
Mondo TC (Touch Control) Mondo TC, the latest addition to the Mondo Matrix family of products, offers a robust, yet intuitive way to control a Mondo III switch. Scalable to any size Mondo III, Mondo TC is ready to rack mount in 3U and allows users to change inputs and outputs with the press of a finger on the unit’s 5x7 touch screen interface. All inputs and outputs can be custom-labeled in order to enable easier on-screen recognition. Switch input/output configurations can also be saved locally for instant recall at any time. Furthermore, Mondo TC allows users to take advantage of Mondo III’s inherent ability to switch audio and/or serial independently of video from the same input. For example, routing audio from input 1 to outputs 3-6 and video from input 2 to outputs 3-6 is easily accomplished with a few touches. The affordable Mondo TC was engineered to bridge the gap between basic switch control options—such as Windows Hyper Terminal—and more complicated and expensive third-party control options. Never has it been easier to control a Mondo! |

Mondo Matrix3 |
Building on the incredible success of the Mondo Matrix II, Magenta’s Mondo Matrix III redefines the standard for UTP switching and extension by adding optional addressable duplex capability and a variety of redundancy and performance improvements. The new addressable duplex serial capability enables digital signage applications to collect individual display data and metrics in addition to independent control over each display. Like its predecessor, the field upgradable Mondo III also future proofs your investment by allowing for the addition of inputs and outputs in increments of 16, and supports an unprecedented maximum configuration of 256x512. Compatibility with all MultiView products enables the extension of 1920x1200 video, stereo audio and serial signals over a range of 2000ft/609m.The Mondo Matrix III can be programmed and controlled using the onboard touch-screen, Windows HyperTerminal, Magenta’s Mondo Matrix Control Software, or 3rd party control systems such as AMX or Crestron.The Mondo Matrix III, while fully compatible with the previous Mondo Matrix, offers a host of upgrades, plus additional features and benefits at no additional cost. Mondo III now includes front-panel indicator lights, allowing switch operators to check status on the unit’s power supplies, fans, filter and temperature at a glance. Mondo III also adds a replaceable air filter, two DB9 serial connections, true redundant power supplies and a new backlit 2x16 character LCD to aid in configuration and diagnostics. |
