The AV industry is abuzz with the launch of the AVPro Edge CBOX-HA, a revolutionary all-in-one system management solution designed to simplify the integration and control of various AV systems. This innovative device offers multiple AV-over-IP ecosystems and modes, making it an indispensable tool for AV integrators.
The CBOX-HA boasts several key features that set it apart. One of its most notable advantages is its support for both 1G and 10G MXnet ecosystems, providing flexibility in operation for AV-over-IP infrastructure and upgrades within the same device.
Another standout feature is the introduction of a Dante Controller mode. This mode allows the CBOX-HA to act as a management platform for Dante audio networks. In this mode, it utilizes the Dante API (DAPI) for device discovery, management, and signal routing of Dante-enabled devices, including AVPro Edge, AudioControl, and third-party hardware.
The CBOX-HA's compatibility has been expanded to include more Dante-enabled devices, making it interoperable beyond AVPro's own products. This versatility ensures that the CBOX-HA can manage Dante-capable devices from various solutions, not just those from AVPro Edge and AudioControl.
The CBOX-HA is housed in a compact chassis, which accommodates all these capabilities at the same price point. To make configuration even easier, a forthcoming mode select wizard is planned, allowing installers to select operating modes during startup without guesswork.
Matt Murray, CTO at AVPro Edge, stated that the CBOX-HA brings value and efficiency to installers, simplifying AV-over-IP integrations and upgrades. This device is intended to reduce the complexity of such integrations, thereby streamlining system management and reducing hardware footprint.
The CBOX-HA offers a 10-year advanced replacement warranty, reflecting AVPro Edge's confidence in its reliability. This long warranty term underscores the company's commitment to providing high-quality, dependable products to its customers.
In summary, the AVPro Edge CBOX-HA is a versatile, single-box control solution for AV integrators needing to handle mixed 1G/10G MXnet AV networks and Dante audio environments. Its compact design, extensive compatibility, and user-friendly configuration options make it an ideal choice for streamlining system management and reducing hardware footprint in AV-over-IP integrations.
