Product Guide: Flex Chassis

Overview

The FLEX Matrix chassis is the core switching engine of the FLEX modular matrix system. Each chassis accepts FLEX input and output cards to build a custom I/O configuration — from a compact 8×10 matrix up to a 24×60 high-density matrix — all in a single rack-mounted unit with built-in video wall, quad view, per-output scaling, and CEC display management.
