AV over IP Matrix Controller with KVM & Video Wall Control (GF-AVIP-MC)

GF-AVIP-MC

The Gefen GF-AVIP-MC AVoIP Matrix Controller provides a powerful, centralized solution for managing your entire Gefen AV over IP system through a single, intuitive web interface. This robust controller simplifies complex setups by enabling comprehensive management of routing selections, matrix switching, and video wall configurations for all connected transmitters and receivers on the network. Ideal for large-scale commercial installations, security surveillance systems, and video wall displays, the GF-AVIP-MC eliminates the need to configure each extender individually, offering a streamlined, scalable, and efficient management platform for your professional AV/IT infrastructure.

Key Features

Centralized System Management: Enables the management and full configuration of multiple Gefen AVoIP extenders from a single WebGUI, eliminating the need to access each unit individually.

 

Matrix and Video Wall Control: Natively supports the creation and control of complex matrix switching and video wall modes using simple presets within the WebGUI.

 

Flexible Routing: Supports both point-to-point (unicast) and multi-to-multi (multicast) routing selections for maximum system design flexibility.

 

Multiple Control Interfaces: Offers versatile system integration with support for control via WebGUI (remote or local), RS-232, Telnet, UDP, and an included IR remote.

 

Direct System Access: Features an HDMI output and USB ports for connecting a local monitor, keyboard, and mouse for direct access and control of the management interface without a separate PC.

 

Preset Triggering: Includes a dedicated trigger input interface that allows for the simple recall of stored configuration presets from a remote keypad or other trigger-based control device.

 

Dual LAN Ports: Equipped with two LAN ports to manage AVoIP devices on a physically or logically separate network, enhancing security and isolating high-bandwidth video traffic.

 

Syner-G™ Software Support: Fully compatible with Gefen Syner-G™ software for easy device discovery and initial IP configuration on the network.

How It Works

The Gefen AVoIP Matrix Controller provides centralized control of all Gefen Video and KVM over IP extenders through a single WebGUI interface, eliminating the need to access each transmitter and receiver individually for configuration and routing changes. Simply connect the controller to the same network as the extenders, and it automatically discovers all units, allowing operators to configure video, audio, RS-232, IR, and USB routing by dragging and dropping transmitter sources onto receiver destinations. The Independent Routing feature enables advanced KVM roaming, where keyboard and mouse control can switch between multiple source computers while maintaining the current video display on a single monitor setup. The system supports up to 256 customizable presets for instant recall of complex routing configurations, video wall creation across multiple displays, and both unicast and multicast distribution modes—creating a flexible and scalable virtual matrix environment manageable from one control point rather than accessing dozens of individual device interfaces
