Seamless AV Over IP Management
TPN-CTU-X50 is a Control Unit (CU) for Lightware's TPN AV Over IP product line. With this control unit and an off-the-shelf 10G Ethernet switch installed as a crosspoint in the system, a virtual matrix can be created for TPN devices connected to the IP network as input and output endpoints.
Simplify Configuration with Open SDVoE API
TPN-CTU-X50 is designed to manage small TPN systems with at most 50 TPN endpoints. Technically, the TPN-CTU-X50 runs an SDVoE Control Server instance. It is this instance through which the TPN endpoints (and consequently, the virtual matrix) can be reached and configured using the open SDVoE API. Thanks to this architecture, any third-party controller interface device that supports the SDVoE API can be used for managing the virtual matrix.
Customize Your Interface for Easy System Operation
The controller features Lightware Advanced Room Automation (LARA) with a LARA TPN driver. This driver offers various methods and functions for interacting with the TPN system without the need to use the SDVoE API. With an ever-growing feature set, the driver enables crosspoint switching and basic setup tasks like assigning EDID and adjusting HDCP capabilities of the TPN transmitters. To ease system setup and operation, the driver includes a graphical user interface for the integrator to perform setup tasks and provides an easily customizable user interface for crosspoint switching. With subsequent releases, more features are to be added.
The control unit has three independent Ethernet ports, ensuring network design flexibility even in highly secure IT environments. Other control interfaces include six GPIO ports, two RS232 interfaces, and an OCS sensor.
