Overview

The NX-4200 / NetLinx® NX Integrated Controller is a programmable network appliance specifically designed to control AV and building technology using multiple analog and digital formats. The NX-4200 provides a scalable platform for the future by combining high performance, backward compatibility and extensive network security features. With its front panel display, built-in Ethernet switch and PoE capability, the NX-4200 is the ideal solution for demanding, technology-rich environments. The NX-4200’s all-in-one architecture also delivers the lowest Total Cost of Ownership in the industry, thanks to ease of support, maintenance and configuration, as well as reduced hardware and cabling costs.

Features

• Front Panel Display – Features an LCD display on the front panel, making it easy to view status information, network settings, IP addresses & ICSLan Port status, among others
• Redundant Power Source – The NX-4200 can be powered either with a connection to mains AC power (110/220VAC) or from an external 12V DC power supply. If the AC input power is lost or if the internal power supply fails, the NX-4200 will immediately switch to the 12V DC power input without interruption except to PoE devices on the ICSLan
• Dual NIC with Power – Enables two discrete network interfaces for unrivaled security and includes a 4 Port switch with PoE allowing you to power PoE devices over a secure, isolated network. The LAN port is used to connect the master to an external network, and the ICSLAN ports connect to AMX or third-party A/V equipment isolated from the primary network
• IPv6 – Supports Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), the communications protocol that provides an identification and location system for computers on networks and routes traffic across the Internet
• IEEE 802.1X – Supports IEEE Standard for Port-based Network Access Control with the ability to grant or deny network access to devices wishing to attach to a LAN based on credentials tied to the device rather than to a user
• X.509 Certificate Services – NX supports customer-provided certificates for access to protected networks
• Full LDAP Integration – Supports multiple user-defined login groups for accessing the master, as well as provides an AMX programmer the capability to require network login to access certain areas of the touch panel
• High Performance Architecture, Flexible Programming Platform (RPM, NetLinx and Java) – Easily scalable to support a wide range of applications for today and tomorrow
• Full Line Compatible (Backwards and Cross-Compatibility) – Standardized port numbers and new configuration import/export tools mean fewer coding changes
• TLS / SSH Client – Provides NetLinx programmers the ability to manage secure port TLS and SSH communications with a remote device or server
• Cryptographic Support – In accordance with FIPS 140-2, a U.S. government computer security standard used to accredit cryptographic modules for the protection of sensitive or valuable data
• Network Syslog – Supports standard device logging to a syslog server
• Enhanced Diagnostics On Serial and IR Ports – Provides real time error feedback when Serial and IR ports are disconnected or improperly wired
• File Import / Export From USB Drive – Backup and restore configuration data, program files, and update firmware from a standard USB flash drive
• Ultra-Fast 1600 MIPS processor
• 1 GB Onboard RAM
• 1 M Non-Volatile Memory
• 8 GB SDHC FLASH Memory
• 1 RU
• 2 AXLink Interface
• 1 10/100 LAN Interface
• 4 10/100 ICSLan Interfaces with PoE
• 4 PoE Interfaces
• 8 Digital I/O Ports
• 2 RS232/422/485 Ports
• 6 RS232-Only Ports
• 8 IR/Serial Output Ports
• 8 Relay Ports
