2-Series Integrated AV Control System Crestron MP2 & MP2E

2-Series Engine

At the heart of the MP2 & MP2E is the powerful 32-bit Freescale ColdFire®

processor. Crestron's exclusive enhanced real-time operating system makes the MP2

& MP2E the fastest, most reliable control systems available.

Cresnet®

Cresnet is the communications backbone for many Crestron touchpanels, keypads,

lighting controls and other devices. The Cresnet bus is a simple, yet flexible 4-wire

network that provides rock-solid bidirectional communication and power for up to

252 Cresnet devices.

Cresnet Slave Mode

Selectable Cresnet Slave Mode enables the MP2 & MP2E to be configured as

Cresnet slave devices, effectively transforming them into Cresnet expansion

modules. Such flexibility can offer a cost-effective solution for system expansion,

providing a host of additional control ports in a single module.

Ethernet (MP2E only)

Crestron pioneered the IP-based control system to harness the vast possibilities of

Ethernet and the Internet for remote control, monitoring, programming and

diagnostics. The MP2E is designed to deliver the world's most advanced IP control

solution. The high-speed Ethernet port enables a full-duplex 10/100 Ethernet

connection with built-in Web server and email client and support for both static and

dynamic IP addressing.

Crestron e-Control®2 (MP2E only)

Crestron's award-winning e-Control 2 XPanel solutions offer the most flexible range

of IP control possibilities available. Using a Windows®computer or CE/PocketPC™

PDA device, e-Control 2 provides an amazing control GUI that looks and behaves

just like a Crestron Isys®touchpanel.

Crestron RoomView®(MP2E only)

Every Ethernet-enabled 2-Series control system works directly with Crestron's

exclusive RoomView Help Desk software for the industry's most comprehensive

facility-wide asset management solution.

SSL (MP2E only)

All Ethernet-enabled 2-Series control systems support SSL (Secure Sockets Layer),

the industry standard for protecting sensitive network communications.
