Cache Media Delivers M-LYNX-702

Broadcast specialist Cache Media has recently supplied Wimbledon-based AV specialists Present Communications with five Marshall M-Lynx 702 7" Rackmountable 1024 x 600 LCD Display units.

The M-LYNX-702 Dual 7" LCD display is a feature-packed, economical solution perfect for fly-packs, control rooms, routing rooms and countless other video system applications. Multiple video inputs set this product apart from similar-looking products. With the M-LYNX-702, users are not limited to the single SDI connector found on many of its competitor models. For added convenience, the M-LYNX-702 offers direct access to all functions through professional front panel controls.

Kieron Garlic of Present Communications commented: "We've been looking for screens to rack up with our video conferencing equipment. We wanted two screens as this fits with the most common configuration for video conferencing, one for far end video and one for far end content.

"Connectivity is always an issue and so we wanted something with as much flexibility as possible to match the flexibility offered by our codecs and also something that was hard wearing and durable. Lastly, we wanted something that we wouldn't be afraid to put in front of a customer. So, with Marshall's reputation, the M-Lynx 702 fitted the bill."

Cache Media's Stuart Cameron added: "As well as multiple video input, there a number of features which enable us to recommend the M-LYNX-702. The high resolution 1024 x 600, bright, colourful displays include no-compromise input selections for each screen. The pictures are brighter and clearer than competitors at this price bracket. With a full complement of digital and analogue connections for each screen, when the unexpected happens, you will be ready. Standard power and tally connections as well as a logical menu structure make this display an easy choice for flexible system designs."

Present Communications is currently investing in video conferencing and webcasting equipment and infrastructure aimed at making the company the UK's leading provider of connected AV for live events. It currently stocks five Cisco C90 video codecs, the most fully featured video codec available, and is the only company in the UK to offer it for hire. Present Communications works alongside some of the UK's largest technical production companies, as their video conferencing and webcasting department, offering a variety of specialist services such as firewall traversal and IP connectivity in hard to reach places.

Kieron Garlic concluded: "Our clients use us because of the quality and reliability of our equipment and the technical expertise of our staff. Our equipment needs to match this expectation."

The Marshall M-LYNX-702 is a long-term monitor solution with field upgradable firmware via a USB port. A standard one-year manufacturer warranty is supplied but can be extended to two years for no extra cost by registering the product online. After sales care and advice is provided in the UK and Ireland by Cache Media. For further information contact Cache Media Ltd.
