How to change Naming of Transmitter so customer knows what source they are connecting to
Thank you for your inquiry,

The \'Attributes\' tab within the On-Board Web Interface allows you to change the name, location and description of the switch. Note, the name of each switch must be unique within a cascaded system.

For further instructions, please refer to the Avocent MX Matrix Manual (PDF)

How many watts does the MXS5120 consume?
Thank you for your inquiry,

Apologies for the delay while we checked this information with the product development team. Please refer to the table below for the Avocent MX Matrix KVM series Typical Power Consumption

ProductPower Consumption
(Watts)
MX Matrix Switches
MXS5120 20 port with all ports idle51.9 W
MXS5120 20 port with 20 Tx (10 W each)251.9 W
MXS5120 20 port PSU rating350 W
MXS5132 32 port with all ports idle75.7 W
MXS5132 32 port with 32 Tx (10 W each)395.7 W
MXS5132 32 port PSU Rating2*600 W
MXT5110-DVI + MXT5110-VGA Transmitters7.5 W
MXR5110 Receiver (*switched mode with USB peripherals)
Kbd/mouse7.88 W
Kbd/mouse + 2 500 mA USB loads13.83 W
Kbd/mouse + 3 500 mA USB loads17 W
MXR5110 Receiver (*extended mode with USB and transmitter)
Kbd/mouse + transmitter23.32 W
Kbd/mouse + 2 500 mA loads + transmitter29.57 W
Kbd/mouse + 3 500 mA loads + transmitter 32.32 W


BTU = Power X 3.42
Note: Switch and Receiver show 10 W per transmitter due to cable loss, power supply efficiency and data processing draw (running full data uses more power).
