Model Version Description Part #
 RGB 168xi Univ. Mountable Interface w Audio - GRY 60-379-01 Retired
 RGB 168xi Mountable Universal Interface w Audio 60-379-12 Retired

This product has been retired.

The Extron RGB 168xi with ADSP™ is a universal, analog computer-video interface with a female 15-pin HD input, buffered local monitor output, an unswitched AC outlet, and optional AAP - Architectural Adapter Plate openings for cable pass-through connectors. These plates affix to the front panel of the interface and allow various connectors to be attached while cables pass through the rear of the enclosure.

Features

  • Input: RGB video on female 15-pin HD connector; audio on 3.5 mm stereo mini connector
  • Output: RGB video on female BNC connectors for RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB; audio on captive screw connector
  • Compatible with VGA-QXGA, Mac, Sun®, and SGI® computers
  • 300 MHz (-3 dB) RGB video bandwidth
  • ADSP™ - Advanced Digital Sync Processing — An exclusive Extron technology that conditions sync signals to provide reliable operation with a variety of signal sources and display types. ADSP reshapes the sync signals, restores proper TTL voltage levels, and maintains the original video to sync timing relationships while allowing centering control.
  • Active PC audio to balanced audio interfacing — Converts unbalanced PC audio to balanced line level audio for output on a captive screw connector.
  • Three double space AAP - Architectural Adapter Plate openings, AAPs sold separately — Extron AAPs are mountable metal plates that provide pass-through connectors and control modules to maintain a clean and efficient AV system design. AAPs sold separately.
  • Three-position level/peaking switch — Boosts and equalizes video signals to compensate for signal loss and high frequency attenuation that occur in long cable runs.
  • Horizontal shift control — Shifts the displayed image left or right on the display screen. Also called "horizontal centering".
  • DDSP™ - Digital Display Sync Processing — Allows the sync signal to pass through without altering sync pulse or width. Disables other sync processing features such as horizontal and vertical centering. DIP switch-selectable.
  • Unswitched AC outlet, 600 watts max. - Edison USA
  • Rack/through-desk mounting hardware included
  • Buffered female 15-pin HD local monitor output
  • Internal universal power supply

Note: Part numbers 60-379-01 and 60-379-12 have been retired.
