Details

Extron PVS 401D (part number 42-308-13) — a 4+2 input PoleVault Digital classroom AV system with pole-mounted electronics.

Four wallplate source positions and two switcher HDMI inputs make this the larger of the two PoleVault Digital builds. The PVS 407D and its power supply ride on the projector pole inside the PMK 560 kit, so no rack, ceiling enclosure or wall cabinet is needed anywhere in the room. Instructors see a control panel and a couple of input plates; everything else is overhead.

Key Capabilities

Four wallplate inputs plus two local HDMI inputs, up to six sources in total
Video to 4096x2160 at 30 Hz, or 4K/UHD at 60 Hz with 4:2:0 chroma subsampling
Two amplifier channels, each Class D rated at 25 watts rms into 4 or 8 ohms
Draws 30.4 watts at 12 VDC, or 37.1 watts including the external power supply
PMK 560 pole kit fits 1.5 in NPT poles or 1.85 to 1.95 in outside diameter
FF 120 Flat Field speakers drop into a 2 x 2 ft or 2 x 4 ft tile, 170 degree coverage
Unmanaged four-port 10/100Base-T switch lets three more devices share one network drop

Where It Is Used

Projector rooms with several connection points — secondary school classrooms, lecture rooms, college teaching labs and corporate training suites — where a pole-mounted projector is already the fixed point in the ceiling.
