July 6, 2022 - Big changes are coming to the AC-MX-42 this July. Through a new, OTA-available firmware update, this switch is gaining a ton of new features.

Our best-selling 4X2 matrix switcher will gain priority switching. This will simplify the client user experience by enabling auto-switching when an input is connected (or even disconnected).  Check out all these new features:

Priority Switching (Auto-Switch Mode)

• When the AC-MX-42 is in Auto-Switch Mode, Priority Switching can be enabled.
• Priority Switching sets hierarchy per output, allowing you to designate favored inputs, preventing overtaking by lower priority inputs.
• Perfect as a Conference Room solution when remote connections might need priority over local input sources.

Fallback Input (Auto-Switch Mode)

• When the AC-MX-42 is in Auto-Switch Mode, the Fallback Input can be enabled.
• Fallback Input allows forced output of a desired input when the current active input is disconnected.
• A use example might be returning to an input with a corporate logo or, digital signage information when the source input is disconnected.

EDID Blend (Web GUI/EDID Management)

• Allows creation of custom EDIDs by combining video capabilities from one source with audio capabilities from another.
• A custom, blended EDID unlocks the full potential of your system, eliminating the “bottleneck” EDID incompatibilities often create.
