Two Independent Scalers for DTP Outputs

The DTP CrossPoint 84 provides individual scaling up to 1920x1200 and 2K or 2048x1080 for each DTP output. This enables content from two sources to be shown simultaneously on two remote displays. When connecting a guest device, independent scaling also optimizes the video output for a confidence monitor and a main display, where each may have a different resolution and aspect ratio. The DTP CrossPoint 84 also provides selectable FILL and FOLLOW modes on the DTP outputs to ensure the proper aspect ratio of the output. FILL mode provides full screen output, while the FOLLOW mode preserves the original aspect ratio of the input signal.

Designed for Full Audio System Integration

In addition to video matrix switching and scaling of the DTP outputs, the DTP CrossPoint 84 can serve as the central component for full audio system integration. It includes audio switching and breakaway for all eight video sources, four mic/line inputs that can be matrix mixed into any output, as well as HDMI audio embedding and de-embedding. The DTP CrossPoint 84 also provides highly flexible configuration and processing options for the audio inputs and outputs, and for distributing the audio in a system. Each video input, including the DTP endpoints, can be accompanied by embedded digital audio or separate analog audio.

Audio from the DTP CrossPoint 84 can be output with or without processing, as HDMI embedded audio, two-channel analog audio, S/PDIF digital audio, or amplified with the matrix switcher's integrated mono 70 volt or two-channel stereo power amplifier - MA and SA models. Multi-channel bitstream formats are routed directly to the outputs, without de-embedding or processing. The DTP CrossPoint 84 IPCP amplifier-equipped models deliver stereo power amplification with 50 watts rms per channel into 4 ohms and 25 watts rms per channel into 8 ohms, or mono 70 volt amplification with 100 watts rms output. These integrated amplifiers feature an Extron exclusive Class D amplifier design with patented CDRS™ - Class D Ripple Suppression technology that provides a smooth, clean audio waveform and an improvement in signal fidelity over conventional Class D amplifier designs.

ProDSP for Complete Audio System Design and Optimization

All DTP CrossPoint 84 models feature Extron ProDSP, the same full-featured, high performance audio signal processing found in the Extron DMP 128 and DMP 64 digital signal processors. Extron's exclusive ProDSP is engineered from the ground up using a powerful 64-bit floating point DSP engine to provide very wide dynamic range and reduce the potential for clipping. ProDSP also utilizes studio grade 24-bit audio converters with 48 kHz sampling to maintain audio signal transparency. ProDSP is loaded with a comprehensive selection of powerful, easy-to-configure tools to control level, dynamics, filters, delay, ducking, loudness, and feedback suppression.

Truly professional grade DSP allows full audio system design, precise optimization and fine tuning, and proper gain structure. The four mic/line inputs can be matrix mixed into any of the four stereo output buses to create finely tuned audio zones for the corresponding outputs. In addition, these inputs can be routed to any of the eight "virtual" buses to allow inputs to be processed together as a group, before routing into the output buses. If desired, mic/line input signals can be mixed with the signal processing bypassed. The flexible routing and mixing capabilities of the DTP CrossPoint 84 allow system designers to create simple or complex signal management schemes to accommodate a wide variety of system application requirements.

Setup and optimization is easy with the intuitive DSP Configurator™ Software. The flexible on-screen layout offers fast access to all digital audio signal processing tools for the DTP CrossPoint 84, including level control, dynamics, filters, delay, ducking, loudness, feedback suppression, and matrix mixing. Designers can quickly get a snapshot of the audio system, including all processing blocks, AV matrix switching ties, and audio matrix mixing, all at once.

Integrate with Extron Audio Processors for Larger Systems and AEC

An Extron digital audio expansion port is included on all DTP CrossPoint 84 models for interfacing with an Extron DMP 128 Digital Matrix Processor. This allows an 8x16 I/O channel transport between devices, and the DMP 128 provides an additional 12 inputs and eight outputs for microphones, multiple speaker zones, recording, assistive listening, and more. A linked DMP 128 also offers additional capabilities such as automixing, AEC - acoustic echo cancellation with DMP 128 C models, and POTS analog phone interfacing with the DMP 128 C P. Many unique and scalable system designs are possible when linking a DTP CrossPoint 84 to a DMP 128 AT in a Dante™ network. As an example, this can be ideal for supporting a large number of microphones in a city council meeting chamber, or in a lecture hall for distance learning.

Communications — external device (pass-through, unidirectional or bidirectional) (RS-232/IR over TP)
NOTE     Protocol is mirrored between the connected DTP 330 endpoints and the "Over TP" ports on the DTP CrossPoint 84. Signals from a control device pass into each DTP CrossPoint 84 "Over TP" port, are embedded with the DTP signal, and sent to individual DTP 330 Tx or Rx endpoints for control of remote sink or source devices. The "Over TP" ports are simply pass-through connections to TP endpoints. There is no IR insertion from any DTP CrossPoint 84 control port to the “Over TP” ports. RS-232 can be inserted from the Ethernet connection.
