Product Details - The Extron IPL T S2 is a compact control processor with a high performance Web server, designed to integrate IP Internet Protocol connectivity into AV systems. The IPL T S2 gives users the ability to remotely and proactively monitor and troubleshoot projectors, flat panel displays, switchers, and other RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 serially controlled devices.

The IP Link Series uses Extron's exclusive IP Link technology, a high performance intelligent network integration solution specifically engineered to meet the needs of professional AV environments, from large universities and businesses to small home installations. Multiple Ethernet-enabled AV products can be managed and supported by a technician or administrator at any time from any computer with a Web browser.

Two Serial Ports

The IPL T S2 features two 9-pin D-sub serial ports that can control two RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 serial devices directly. When configured for pass-through mode, the IPL T S2 can pass through commands from an existing control system and control a single device. The IPL T S2 also includes two captive screw serial ports that are connected in parallel with the 9-pin serial ports.

High Performance Web Server

IP Link interfaces use an integrated, high performance Web server with memory available for storing HTML, JavaScript, Flash™ animation, and graphics files. When used with GlobalViewer®, a free, Web-based AV resource management software, users can access a variety of AV products connected to a network. For example, users can check the activity and status of a projector's power, connections, lamp life, or temperature, or even turn off all projectors at once — all from the convenience of a single monitoring station.

Proactive Service and Security

Proactive service, support, and preventive maintenance are also possible with IP Link and GlobalViewer. With e-mail notification, technical support administrators can receive failure and service messages through an e-mail enabled cell phone, PDA, pager, or Internet e-mail account. For secure installations that do not allow Internet access, online monitoring can still be performed proactively. Within an existing secure infrastructure, e-mail notification of failures and repairs is possible without compromising the security of the AV systems and facility.
