Just Add Power, a specialist in AV-over-IP distribution, will show a range of products including transmitters from its MaxColor 4K60 series at CEDIA Expo 2024.
Exhibiting on stand 3333 at the Denver show that runs September 5-7, Just Add Power will show its MaxColor 4K60 Series MC-TXWP1 wall plate transmitter, MC-QX MaxColor 4K60 Tiling and Warping transmitter, and the AES67-capable MC-TX3 MaxColor 4K60 Series transmitter.
It will also host its 8th annual daily guitar giveaway at its stand, helping to raise awareness for the Guitars 4 Vets (G4V) programme. This year, the company is donating three guitars to G4V's cause, and CEDIA Expo attendees can enter for a chance to win a Jackson Monarkh guitar, an ESP LTD electric guitar with a flamed maple top, or a Players Series white on white Fender Stratocaster.
Just Add Power is also a sponsor of the first-ever CEDIA Expo Pickleball Meet-Up taking place on September 3 at the Gates Tennis Center.
The new Just Add Power MaxColor MC-TXWP1 PoE, two-gang HDMI wall plate transmitter provides integrators with an HDMI port that natively supports 4K60 input from any source. It
distributes 4K UHD video from connected 4K BYOD sources with no downscaling or subsampling. With the MC-TXWP1, 4K60/4:4:4/36-bit video can be distributed over a 1Gb managed network using Cat 5e/Cat 6 cable. It delivers seamless switching; 4K up- and downscaling; and HDR management while supporting all lossless audio formats and HDR10, HLG, and Dolby Vision. The faceplate is available in black, white, or custom colours.
The Just Add Power MC-QX MaxColor 4K60 Tiling and Warping Transmitter combines the company's MaxColor technology, 4K network video tiler, and Warp Engine technology. It allows 4K60 source devices to be displayed on a single screen instantly, along with source rotation capabilities. Users can simultaneously watch up to four 4K60 video sources in multiple formats, including single-screen, video wall, or tiled video. With the MC-QX warping capability, installers can rotate any source image in a Just Add Power matrix - including cable boxes, media players, game systems and cameras - in 0.1-degree increments in real time with low latency. The rotated image can then be sent to an unlimited number of receivers in the network.
The MC-TX3 MaxColor 4K60 Series Transmitter natively supports 4K60 in and out, allowing end users to play Ultra HD video from any 4K source and device now available, along with compatibility for AES67 audio systems. With the MC-TX3, video at 12-bit colour and 4:4:4 chroma can be distributed over Cat 5/Cat 6 cable. Like the MaxColor MC-TX2, the new MC-TX3 transmitter offers power over USB-C, supporting KVM or, for example, a USB web camera signal over IP. Further, it supports MPEG downstreaming for connected devices, such as a laptop or tablet. It also supports input for LPCM audio up to eight channels, AES67 audio send and receive up to eight channels, and AES67 audio injection into any Just Add Power network. Like many other transmitters in the Just Add Power lineup, it includes HDMI pass-through; control of endpoints via RS-232, IR, and CEC; and Image Pull, which allows users to preview an image from any source or display from any web browser or control system at up to 10 fps.
