Rechargeable Micro
phones
Each MXW microphone is powered from a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery, which can be
charged at any time without removal from the microphone. Battery statistics are viewable
from the control software (battery runtime, time to full charge, charge cycle count and battery
capacity).
Discreet, Professional De
sign
Modern, lowprofile wireless microphone designs elegantly integrate into diverse AV environ
ments. By eliminating wires, MXW noticeably reduces clutter and provides professional ele
gance.
Encryption
The MXW wireless link is encrypted using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-256), as
specified by the US Government National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) pub
lication FIPS-197.
Advanced Networking and Control
Digital Audio Networking
Digital audio is carried over standard Ethernet using shielded Cat5e (or higher) cables. De
veloped with Dante technology by Audinate , MXW provides low latency, clock synchro
nization, and high Quality-of-Service (QoS) to provide reliable audio transport. Digital audio
can coexist safely on the same network as IT and control data, or can be configured to use a
dedicated network.
Automatic Frequency Co
ordination
The MXW Series uses automatic frequency coordination to quickly set up all of the micro
phones and achieve reliable, uninterrupted wireless communication. Microphones are as
signed to channels on an access point transceiver simply by arranging them in an associat
ed charging station and pressing the Link button. Multiple access point transceivers can
work together to support large installations or scalable rooms. Once Linked, the system au
tomatically scans the available RF spectrum and selects the best quality RF channels on
which to operate. Upon detecting interference, microphones automatically switch to the best
alternate RF channel determined during continuous background scanning.
Remote Control and Moni
toring
Microflex Wireless components and software are compatible with Crestron, AMX, and other
programmable controllers. Components interconnect with teleconferencing equipment and
digital signal processors.
BuiltIn RF Spectrum Scan
ner
The MXW Wireless components transmit in unlicensed spectrum that may be used by other
wireless devices (in particular wireless phones and headsets) operating in the same area.
The MXW access point features an RF scanner to document the average and peak RF inter
ference. The data provides an accurate estimate for the number of MXW channels that can
be safely operated in the scanned area.
