New Technology Combines up to 16 A/V Extenders Into One, Creating Dynamic, Rack-Mountable Unit

SmartAVI, Inc., a world-leading innovator in the fields of digital content creation, management and delivery solutions through hardware and software, today unveiled its brand new extension hardware solution for multiple A/V components, Rack-XTPro.

Rack-XTPro combines up to 16 A/V extenders into one dynamic, rack-mountable unit, eliminating the headache of buying multiple extenders for devices such as servers, DVD players and receivers. The 3U design of the Rack-XTPro eliminates multiple power supplies and easily assimilates into rack/stacked configurations.

“We’re excited by this new extension solution for system architects that integrate multiple devices into digital signage, workplace productivity enhancements or any configuration that requires more than a couple component signals being extended,” said Albert Cohen, CEO of SmartAVI, Inc. “Rack-XTPro gives architects the ability to extend their hi-res video, audio, RS-232 and IR signals over 1,000 feet without the mess and headache of power supply wires everywhere or having to purchase multiple extender units. With our new Rack Series hardware solutions, we’re able to simplify the process of extending your components while offering you a sleek, dynamic, rack-mountable solution that uses cutting-edge technology that SmartAVI is known internationally for delivering.”

SmartAVI’s Rack-XTPro is specifically designed to extend high-resolution video, stereo audio, RS-232 and infrared signals distances greater than 1,000 feet via a single unit which comes in four, 8 and 16 input/output models for large to small-scale rack configurations.

Using inexpensive CAT cabling, Rack-XTPro is the perfect solution for rack-to-end point display needs, rack-to-rack linking such as on campuses or throughout large office buildings and also for end point-to-rack activity monitoring of multiple work stations.

Trends within the A/V component marketplace indicate both professional systems architects and personal end users alike are integrating multiple devices into their educational, corporate and sales presentations.

A multi-device configuration typically requires extension hardware for every couple of components. SmartAVI has found that our clients respond strongly to all-in-one units that integrate seamlessly into their setup, eliminating multiple extenders, power strips and unnecessary wires running in every direction. Professionals want clean, simplified system designs, which is exactly what our new Rack Series of products addresses and accomplishes.

Pricing for SmartAVI’s Rack-XTPro models begins at $1,699.
