AMX NX-3200 NetLinx Integrated Controller - 1RU - Dual LAN
Description
AMX NX-3200 NetLinx Integrated Controller – 1RU Dual LAN
The AMX NX-3200 is a professional-grade integrated controller built for mid-to-large scale AV and building automation installations where reliability and network redundancy matter. Its compact 1RU form factor fits standard 19" racks in permanent or flexible deployment, housed in a matte black metal enclosure with removable rack ears. This controller delivers the processing power and networked control infrastructure that live-sound engineers, install pros, and AV systems integrators depend on for mission-critical venues and installations.
Processing & Connectivity Architecture
The 1600 MIPS processor with 512 MB RAM and 8 GB SDHC flash memory handles complex real-time control tasks without compromise. The dual NIC architecture with separate 10/100 LAN and ICSLAN connections provides isolated network paths for redundancy and fault tolerance—essential when a single point of failure could silence a show or disrupt a critical event.
I/O & Network Security
Port density covers your integration needs: 8 Serial, 8 Relay, 8 IR, and 8 Digital I/O ports interface with gear across your rig, while 2 AXLink ports expand control over AMX peripherals. The controller implements IPv4 and IPv6 support alongside IEEE 802.1X port-based network access control, X.509 certificates, and LDAP integration, giving you enterprise-grade security for networked venues and installations where data integrity and access control are non-negotiable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the NX-3200 designed to control?
The NX-3200 manages mid-to-large AV systems, building automation, and live event installations through 8 serial ports, 8 relay ports, 8 IR ports, and 8 digital I/O ports—plus 2 AXLink ports for AMX peripherals. It orchestrates real-time control of audio interfaces, video switchers, lighting, monitors, and networked devices across isolated network paths.
What makes the dual-NIC architecture valuable for installations?
The NX-3200 features separate 10/100 LAN and ICSLAN connections, creating redundant, isolated network paths. This prevents a single network failure from taking down your entire system and meets enterprise security requirements for critical AV and automation infrastructure.
Is this controller suitable for small studios or portable live sound?
No—the NX-3200 is designed for fixed, mid-to-large installations where professional-grade redundancy and networked control infrastructure are essential. Small home studios and portable live sound systems would benefit from simpler, more compact solutions.
What programming environments does it support?
The NX-3200 supports RPM (Rapid Project Maker), NetLinx, and Java programming environments, giving your systems integrator or engineer flexible options for building custom automation and control logic.
What are the physical specs and power requirements?
The NX-3200 is 1RU rack-mountable (17" W × 1.8" H × 9.1" D), weighs approximately 6.08 pounds, and features a matte black metal enclosure with removable rack ears for flexible deployment in standard 19" racks. USB port allows for file save and restore operations.
