MVP®

Expect the Best, Accept no Substitutes!

VistaLINK® enabled Thumblink™ Enabled Active Format Descriptor (AFD) 3Gb/s enabled

A single MVP® system can expand from 8 inputs with a single output, to as large as 1000+ inputs to more than 50 displays. MVP® - the most expandable, versatile and robust multi-image display processor in the industry.

MVP® Display
MVP® - The Industry's Largest and Most Flexible Multi-Image Display Platform

Up to 1024 inputs to 64 displays - no tie lining, no blocking.

The MVP® is a collection of linked input and output modules residing in one of several 6RU, 15-slot frames. The interface between the input and output modules is a serialized data link "P-Link" using a standard BNC-coax cable - hence, there is no frame/chassis daisy chaining required for expandability. This eliminates blocking which is present in other more limited multi-viewer architectures.

MVP® supports all formats of input content found in today's most advanced broadcast facilities from baseband composite analog video, SD-SDI, HD-SDI - even tackling 3Gb/s. It can handle outputs from a variety of graphic sources using DVI, VGA and HDMI. For facilities where baseband video is not present or feasible, the MVP® also offers support for ASI and IP based MPEG transport stream decoding and monitoring. No other platform in the industry offers the same range of I/O.

Single Point Of Control

Single point of control

Now control both the MVP® and the VIP™ using a single point of control, allowing for a fully integrated mixed hardware system. Perfect for control room environments where large MVP® display walls are required with smaller VIP™ agile displays.
