The MXW wireless link is encrypted using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-256), as
specifiedbytheUSGovernmentNationalInstituteofStandardsandTechnology(NIST)pub
lication FIPS-197.

veloped with Dante technology by Audinate ,MXWprovideslowlatency,clocksynchro
nization, and high Quality-of-Service (QoS) to provide reliable audio transport. Digital audio
can coexist safely on the same network as IT and control data, or can be configured to use a
dedicated network.

ed charging station and pressing the Link button. Multiple access point transceivers can
worktogethertosupportlargeinstallationsorscalablerooms.OnceLinked,thesystemau
tomatically scans the available RF spectrum and selects the best quality RF channels on
which to operate. Upon detecting interference, microphones automatically switch to the best
alternate RF channel determined during continuous background scanning.
Remote Control and Moni
toring
Microflex Wireless components and software are compatible with Crestron, AMX, and other
programmable controllers. Components interconnect with teleconferencing equipment and
digital signal processors.
BuiltIn RF Spectrum Scan
ner
The MXW Wireless components transmit in unlicensed spectrum that may be used by other
wireless devices (in particular wireless phones and headsets) operating in the same area.
TheMXWaccesspointfeaturesanRFscannertodocumenttheaverageandpeakRFinter
ference. The data provides an accurate estimate for the number of MXW channels that can
be safely operated in the scanned area.
