DESCRIPTION
The Extron MLS 103 SV MediaLink Switcher is a compact, three input, one output active
switcher. Inputs one through four provide unbalanced audio while an additional input is an active
auxiliary line level mono audio input that can be mixed with any of the other four selectable
inputs. When used with a MediaLink controller, input selection and volume control are easily
achieved using the controller's user interface or via RS-232. Input selection can also be
controlled using the switcher's front panel buttons.
Part of the Extron VersaTools® line of products, the MLS 103 SV is housed in a quarter rack
width metal enclosure, making it ideal for installation in podiums and other small space areas.
Because of its small size, the switcher can also be mounted or placed on a shelf along with a
VCR and DVD player.
MediaLink Switchers are designed to be used in conjunction with a MediaLink Controller to
facilitate low-cost integration. They can also be used as stand-alone switchers.
