Frequently asked questions
What does each product do in an AV system?
The DCE-1 is a signal processor that handles video distribution, EDID emulation, and audio de-embedding from video signals. The MET-6NE-BL is a control interface—a keypad that operators use to send commands to networked AV systems via Ethernet.
Can these products work together?
Yes. The DCE-1 could process video signals while the MET-6NE-BL serves as the control interface to manage those signals or other system functions in a larger networked AV installation.
What are the power and connectivity differences?
The DCE-1 uses HDMI for video and requires standard power input (specs not fully detailed). The MET-6NE-BL connects entirely via RJ-45 Ethernet and is powered by 802.3af Power over Ethernet, requiring no separate power cable.
Which is easier to install in a confined rack space?
The DCE-1, at just 1 inch tall, requires minimal vertical rack height. The MET-6NE-BL is designed for wall-mounting or panel integration and does not mount in standard racks.
