Extron Electronics is announcing the immediate availability of its high-performance control processor IPCP Pro 360. Leveraging power over Ethernet (PoE), the IPCP Pro 360 is equipped with three dedicated AV LAN ports and one standard Ethernet port. The control processor provides PoE+ to external devices; eliminating the need for additional power supplies.

The Anaheim, Calif.-based manufacturer says the IPCP Pro 360 features advanced security standards and Gigabit Ethernet ports, which ensure compatibility with multiple TouchLink Pro touchpanels using a standard network infrastructure.
According to an Extron press release, the AV LAN ports are designed to control local AV devices and safeguard them from outside intrusion or interference. The IPCP Pro 360 can be used with Extron LinkLicense, which further enhances the capabilities of Extron Pro Series control systems.
Extron, which earned two 2017 CI BEST Awards for its StudioStation and XTP II CrossPoint Series, contends that the IPCP Pro 360 is an ideal choice for controlling multiple devices and control signal types within AV systems requiring an isolated AV network.
