Certified IPMX devices
At ISE26 we saw the first evidence of 'Certified IPMX' products. A proliferation of logos. What can we learn from this?

Strategic Partnership Manager, Matrox Video
Rob has worked in high tech for more than four decades, establishing himself as a veritable veteran of the moving image.
He has spent time in engineering, sales, and marketing, in positions spanning the content-creation, distribution, and transmission industries and more recently AV. Previously, he was an active member of the International Association of Broadcast Manufacturers, serving on its technical sub-committee as well as presenting technical sessions for the Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers in London (including 'resettlement' courses for those leaving the UK military) , the Control Room Summit and AV Broadcast Summit - both in Europe and for InfoComm University in Dubai and the US.
His education includes a CTS. He also has degrees in Information and Communication Technologies (BSc) and Electrical and Electronic Engineering (BSc). Additionally, he complemented this with a Chartered Institute of Marketing post-graduate diploma.
Rob has been with Matrox Video for 20 years, over which time he has been associated with many projects, large and small – national and international. His current remit is the furtherance of strategic partnerships - both technological and organizational. He is particularly involved with the new IPMX open standard - the AV focused extension to ST2110.
Rob is held in high regard internationally for his technology training sessions and was recognised by InfoComm in 2016 as a ‘distinguished talent’ in the industry.

IPMX: are you ready for it? Is it ready for you?
Many judge maturity of a concept by the number of problems it solves and the ease with which it solves them. Now is a good time to see how IPMX, which some call the future of AVoIP, is measuring up to the maturity test.
IPMX: Using Forward Error Correction to increase resilience to bit-stream digital errors
In digital transmission systems, bit-errors can happen; the received signal is then different to the one sent by the transmitter. But IPMX supports both uncompressed and lightly compressed images. Errors and image fidelity don’t sit well together. IPMX is ready to handle this scenario.
What is IPMX? The Next‑Gen AVoIP Standard
Discover how IPMX revolutionizes AVoIP with seamless interoperability and high-quality media transport, preparing for future bandwidth demands.
IPMX: Implementing HDCP with 'open-standards' for AVoIP
HDCP has been shrouded in mystery from the start – remember when everyone searched online to find out how it worked? and, intentionally, found very little? Now the IPMX folks are detailing the HDCP ‘how to do it’ in an Open Standard. Doesn’t publishing an ‘open standard’ derail any obfuscation?
IPMX: the new wings beneath HDBaseT
For years, HDBaseT has been the technology of choice for short-hop extension of AV signals. Many say it effectively ended the era of the ‘VGA over CAT5’ extender by easing the transition of the AV industry into the digital world. The next chapter: HDBaseT over IPMX.
