Total 4K Video Control Across Sixteen Displays.
Distribute 16 HDMI sources to 16 outputs in a compact 1RU matrix with built-in test patterns and front-panel configuration.
The AC-MX-1616 is a professional AVPro Edge solution designed for 16×16 high-bandwidth hdmi matrix for large av systems. Distribute 16 HDMI sources to 16 outputs in a compact 1RU matrix with built-in test patterns and front-panel configuration. It is intended for integrators who need to match the signal path to the connected equipment rather than rely on a generic consumer accessory.
Purpose-built AV performance.
Reliable performance begins with a system design that considers the source signal, destination capabilities and cabling. For this model, the most important considerations are sixteen-input switching, sixteen hdmi outputs and high-bandwidth video routing. The specifications and feature descriptions below distinguish the capabilities of this model from other products in the AVPro Edge range.
Choosing the correct equipment is particularly important when different rooms, receivers or displays have different capabilities. The AC-MX-1616 is best evaluated as part of the complete signal chain: source, transport or routing hardware, control system and final playback equipment.
Features and capabilities
| Sixteen-input switching | Route a large source library to sixteen independent display or downstream destinations. |
| Sixteen HDMI outputs | Support dense centralized video distribution in residential or commercial racks. |
| High-bandwidth video routing | Original catalog describes HDMI 2.0 a/b, 4K60 and broad HDR format support. |
| Compact 1RU design | Fit a high-density matrix into one rack unit to preserve equipment-room space. |
| Fast switching focus | Manufacturer catalog claims average switching times under three seconds; actual times vary by source and display. |
| 4K output test patterns | Use integrated test signals on each output to validate a cable path before commissioning sources. |
| Front OLED configuration | Perform core setup tasks including routing, EDID, audio and network settings on the front panel. |
| Audio extraction and routing | Original catalog describes analog two-channel outputs and selectable audio-binding behavior. |
Connections and system design.
Connect sources to the matrix and plan each output for its destination's video and audio capabilities. Use supported EDID, scaling and automation controls to accommodate mixed generations of equipment.
Verify HDMI bandwidth, HDCP, output processing and any required HDBaseT receivers for the specific source/display combination.
