Avocent DVI-I, USB & Audio Matrix Receiver
MXR5110-001
Designed as a digital growth platform, the Avocent Matrix product line creates a future-proof environment that customers can expand as new technologies become available, such as higher video resolutions, improved USB standards and video interfaces. It is highly configurable and scalable, and gives broadcasters the flexibility to manage their system now without worrying about what hardware they will need in the future.
With an emphasis on digital file-based workflows in the media and entertainment industry, Avocent Matrix can integrate with the Trellis platform to provide a flexible, reliable and secure content management and delivery capability. This will allow broadcast executives to leverage internal IT capabilities to provide digital content to numerous digital platforms and channels, without multiplying costs.
The Avocent Matrix is easy to implement because of its redesigned management software suite that centralizes configuration, maintenance and user-role setup into one streamlined interface. Compatibility with LDAP and other user authentication frameworks allows the Avocent Matrix to be added easily to existing workflows and setups.
As the transmitters are powered through Power over Ethernet (PoE), the need for power adapters for every transmitter is eliminated. Being able to remove a power supply from each transmitter decreases the number of items in the rack and reduces installation complexity. In addition to the benefits of PoE, transmitters and receivers are fully sealed and passively cooled. This keeps dust and other contaminants away from sensitive components and helps provide a quieter environment and increases reliability for radio or audio production.

Answer: Thank you for your inquiry,
Unfortunately the Avocent MX Matrix does not support dual monitor configuration. There is a work-around (see below), but we would not recommend that as it can be very inconsistent, and requires 2 keyboards or an additional 2-Port KM Switch. If possible, you may want to consider the Adder INFINITY Matrix solution for your application instead, which natively supports Dual Monitor matrix switching and extension.
Gerry-rig workaround:
Notes: not native Dual Monitor, requires 2 keyboards, and switching will need to be done separately for each monitor.
1) Connect 2 Transmitters to the source - plug in video + USB for keyboard and mouse, from each Transmitter to the source PC/Server.
2) Connect 2 Receivers to the user station - Connect Monitor 1 to Transmitter 1 video output, and connect Monitor 2 to Transmitter 2 video output. Plug in either 2 keyboards (one in each Receiver), or a 2 Port USB Keyboard-Mouse switch to each Receiver + a keyboard into to the KM Switch.
3) In the settings, set Receiver 1 into control mode, and Receiver 2 into share/follow mode.
4) You have now implemented Dual Monitor (kind of).
