Matrox MGX Series Delivers 4K60 AV-over-IP at 20x Bandwidth Efficiency
Matrox Video has launched its new Maevex MGX Series, IPMX-ready 4K60 AV-over-IP encoders and decoders. These devices are designed for enterprise AV and control rooms, offering ultra-low latency and 20x bandwidth efficiency compared to other ProAV codecs. The series supports H.265 4:4:4 and integrates USB support for various interactive workflows.
Key Takeaways
- The Maevex MGX Series supports 4K60 AV-over-IP with H.265 4:4:4, and latency as low as one frame in Matrox IQ Mode.
- New encoders and decoders offer 20x bandwidth efficiency over standard ProAV codecs, supporting 20x streaming capacity on existing networks.
- The series is IPMX-ready and integrates USB support for remote workstation access, desktop capture, and interactive workflows.
- Single- and dual-channel models are available (MGX E1, E2 encoders; MGX D1, D2 decoders), with multiview and compositing on E2, D1, and D2.
Why It Matters
Matrox's Maevex MGX Series addresses a critical pain point in enterprise AV-over-IP deployments: network congestion and cost. By offering significantly reduced bandwidth requirements for 4K60 video, it allows organizations to scale their AV infrastructure without costly network upgrades or compromising on quality and latency. This efficiency could influence broader AV-over-IP adoption in environments like control rooms and medical facilities. The integration of IPMX readiness and USB support also positions the series for versatile, interoperable, and interactive AV applications. Teams should monitor how this bandwidth efficiency impacts competitive offerings and overall deployment strategies in large-scale AV environments.
