Black Box MCXG2DC01

Overview

The Black Box MCXG2DC01 is a high-performance HDMI decoder designed to deliver native 4K resolution at 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling and zero measurable latency. It converts HDMI signals for transmission over standard IP networks, maintaining the original video and audio quality as if connected by a direct cable. Supporting both copper and fiber connections, it adapts to various installation environments, from short in-room setups to long-distance runs up to 30 km across campuses or between buildings.

This decoder integrates video, audio, USB 2.0, and RS-232 control data into a single stream, simplifying cabling and rack organization. Its front-panel navigation and on-screen display make local configuration straightforward, while compatibility with the MCX Gen2 Controller enables centralized source switching, preset management, and system monitoring. A local HDMI output allows technicians to verify signals on-site without additional equipment.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
