how to install Matrox Maevex 6152 Quad 4K Decoder Appliance
- Unbox and verify all components, ensuring the Maevex 6152 unit, power supply, mounting hardware, and cables are present and undamaged before installation.
- Install the appliance in a standard 19-inch rack, securing it with the included mounting rails or ears. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit to maintain optimal operating temperatures.
- Connect power and establish network connectivity using a standard Ethernet link. If your deployment uses a management VLAN or dedicated control network, configure the appropriate IP settings accordingly.
- Connect the four HDMI displays to the Maevex 6152 outputs. Route each display to the intended source content and confirm that each monitor is receiving a signal from the corresponding decoder output.
- Carefully power on the device and access the web-based Maevex management interface. From there, adopt the device into your signage network, set up display mapping, and configure streaming sources, resolutions, and synchronization to ensure smooth, coordinated playback across all screens.
- Apply any firmware updates if available, then test playback of multiple streams to verify performance, latency, and alignment across the video wall. Save your configuration profiles for easy replication in future deployments.
