They feature video preview inputs that support high-resolution video from HDCP-compliant HDMI sources and Extron XTP devices.

All TouchLink Pro touchpanels operate using standard network infrastructure and are designed to be easy to install with cost-effective Ethernet cable. They are customized using Extron GUI Designer software.
