New Video Wall Controllers from Trenton Feature Matrox Mura MPX Universal Input/Output Boards

Montreal, Canada (PRWEB) August 15, 2011

Matrox Graphics Inc. and Trenton Systems today announced three new Trenton video wall controllers, tested and validated for use with Matrox Mura? MPX display wall controller boards. A single Mura MPX PCI Express x16 board facilitates video switching, signal conversion, scaling and de-interlacing across four inputs and four outputs, while combining multiple Mura MPX boards in a single Trenton system simplifies hardware required for larger video wall, digital signage & corporate AV projects.


The Trenton TVC4403 4U rackmount system is a new high-performance, high-density video controller for AV professionals and integrators managing large-scale, collaborative display walls. The TVC4403 features a 14-slot, PCI Express 2.0 Trenton backplane that is currently validated with up to six Matrox Mura MPX display controller boards to support up to twenty-four 1080p HD inputs across twenty-four 1080p HD outputs.


Matrox has also validated two compact Trenton systems with embedded Trenton motherboards and Matrox Mura MPX display wall controller boards?ideal for small to mid-sized video wall designs deployed in space-conscious process control, security surveillance, and corporate boardroom environments. The low-profile TVC3400 shelfmount system incorporates one or two Mura MPX boards supporting up to eight input channels across up to eight displays. The compact TVC4400 shelfmount system includes up to three Mura cards to capture, scale, position and display up to twelve inputs from different sources across up to twelve monitors, projectors, cubes or tiles.


?Trenton is excited to have developed the latest members of its video controller family with Matrox,? said Michael Bowling, President of Trenton Systems. ?Our mutual customers will appreciate Trenton system performance in their high-end capture and display applications and how these integrated hardware solutions simplify the installation and start-up of their video display walls.?


"Following closely on the heels of Trenton?s TVC4401 product launch, Matrox is pleased to validate Trenton?s latest rackmount and shelfmount video controller systems," says Helgi Sigurdsson, Product Manager, Matrox Graphics Inc. ?Incorporating the unique single-slot, input/output Matrox Mura MPX boards within additional Trenton-designed systems allows Trenton to deliver fully integrated solutions to AV customers running demanding applications on any sized display wall."

Emerson Network Power Doubles the Life Span of VME Boards

Tempe, Ariz. (PRWEB) September 22, 2011

An extension of the life span of three widely-used VME boards takes the guaranteed production life of the oldest to at least 14 years. Emerson Network Power, a business of Emerson and the global leader in enabling Business-Critical Continuity?, today underlined its commitment to VME technology, in an industry where embedded board manufacturers routinely support their products for seven years in production.


The three VME processor boards from Emerson Network Power ? the MVME5500, introduced in 2002, the MVME6100 (2004) and MVME3100 (2006) ? are used in industrial automation, medical imaging, military and other applications. Emerson Network Power is guaranteeing production availability of all three boards, which feature Power Architecture processors from Freescale Semiconductor, until at least 2016 and has the capability to extend the life span even further depending on customer demand.


The new commitment to an extended product life span follows a re-design which has replaced certain obsolete components with newer, functionally-equivalent parts. The board respin is transparent to customers, which need make no change to production tooling to accept the new versions.


Emerson Network Power has also introduced a new variant of the MVME6100, featuring 2GB DDR memory. The original 1GB version continues to be available.


Director of marketing for Embedded Computing at Emerson Network Power, Paul Virgo, said: ?Emerson Network Power combines financial stability as a division of Emerson (a Fortune 500 company) with the design and manufacturing infrastructure required to produce embedded boards with life spans longer than ten years. This life span extension of three popular VME boards provides firm proof of Emerson Network Power?s ability to provide long-term production and revision management capability to customers who use our VME standard products.?
