4K60/4:4:4/ 36-Bit-Color Transmitter and Receiver Series Features Expanded Capabilities That Build on Success of Award-Winning MaxColor Series 1
SEMINOLE, Fla. — June 22, 2023 — Just Add Power, a leader in AV-over-IP distribution, today announced that the company’s MaxColor™ 4K60 Series 2 transmitters and receivers were recognized with Best of Show honors from AV Technology magazine at InfoComm 2023 in Orlando, Florida. Winners were selected based on the merits of innovation and performance, and the awards were presented during the show. The new 4K60 MaxColorTM Series 2 solutions feature KVM support, a fiber port connection, and audio return channel (ARC). The new MC-TX2 transmitter and MC-RX2 receiver natively support 4K60Hz in and out, allowing end users to play HDR video, including Dolby Vision and HDR10+ formats, using the growing number of Ultra 4K sources and devices in the market. Earlier in the year, the MaxColor Series 2 took home Best of Show honors from Sound & Video Contractor magazine at ISE 2023 in Barcelona.
“We are absolutely delighted to receive Best of Show for MaxColor Series 2 at this year’s InfoComm. The solution generated a lot of excitement and interest on the show floor from customers and colleagues alike,” said Taft Stricklin, chief sales officer at Just Add Power. “Series 2 is built upon the philosophy that Series 1 introduced: that delivering premium features, maximum performance, and unmatched quality can be achieved without exploding an installer’s budget. We’re deeply honored to be recognized by AV Technology.”
Just Add Power’s new MaxColor Series 2 solutions include all the features and benefits of the MaxColor Series 1 products with even more capabilities to support the most robust applications. With MaxColor Series 2, 4K60/4:4:4/36-bit-color video can be distributed over a 1GB managed network using CatX (Cat 5e minimum) cable or fiber cable, so that integrators can use the cable that best fits their projects. It also boasts power over USB-C, supporting KVM, or, for example, a USB web camera signal over IP. With the new ARC feature from Just Add Power, installers can easily send audio from a TV connected to a MaxColor 2 receiver across the network to another MaxColor 2 receiver — connected to an audio-video receiver or other ARC-enabled amplifier — making project design even easier and more flexible.
The MaxColor 4K60 Series 2 transmitter and receiver provide integrators with an affordable and scalable 4K UHD distribution platform to support today’s 4K source content natively with high frame rates over existing network infrastructures. MaxColor offers high-frame-rate, deep-color, and 4:4:4 chroma support to ensure that what is seen on the screen matches the output of the source with no subsampling or downscaling.
The Series delivers zero detectable latency, instant and seamless switching, 4K up- and downscaling, and HDR management while supporting all lossless audio formats and HDR10+, HLG, and Dolby Vision for the best viewing experience. Additional features include image pop, push, pull, and integrated control.
