Anaheim, California (August 1, 2016) - Extron Electronics is pleased to introduce several new eBUS Button Panels for mounting in EU and MK-type wall frames and Flex55 enclosures. These easy-to-use control panels connect to an IPCP Pro control processor to perform a wide variety of AV system functions such as power On/Off, input switching, volume control, and much more. They feature customizable, soft-touch buttons that are backlit for easy operation in low-light environments. Each model features two eBUS ports for easy system expansion. eBUS button panels are linked to the control processor and to each other using a single cable that carries both power and communication. These eBUS Button Panels are available in EU and MK form factors. For applications worldwide, the EU versions are compatible with Flex55 modules, mounting kits, and enclosures.

"These new EU and MK eBUS panels expand system functionality and increase control system design options," says Casey Hall, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Extron. "With the introduction of 19 new button panels to our eBUS family, AV system designers can now choose from over two dozen convenient and cost-effective options for AV system control."

Extron’s integration-friendly eBUS technology is based on a unique digital bus architecture that allows for easy control system expansion, greater design options, and future upgrades. As with our TouchLink Pro touchpanels, eBUS button panels are designed for use with any Extron IPCP Pro Series control processor. A single eBUS button panel can be used as the AV control interface for a smaller system or multiple button panels and touchpanels may be combined when a more elaborate control system is required.

eBUS button panels come in industry-standard form factors and multiple units may be linked together by a single cable that carries both power and communication. Since they have the same physical appearance as Extron’s broad range of MediaLink controllers, eBUS button panels can be used alongside them throughout a facility while preserving a consistent look and user experience. Buttons can be easily customized using the online Custom Button Builder application.
