Start with the sources and destinations you need today, then plan for tomorrow. HRE helps you compare MX2 models without getting lost in the suffixes.
Lightware MX2 HDMI 2.0 Matrices
For HDMI-based playback, presentation and display systems. Compare compact routers with higher-capacity configurations as your source and destination counts grow.
Shown: MX2-24×24-HDMI20
Ask us about I/O counts, EDID management and your required video formats.
MX2 DisplayPort & Hybrid Matrices
Connect DisplayPort sources and mixed HDMI/DisplayPort systems with the appropriate MX2 variant. We help match the input and output connector types to the complete signal path.
Shown: MX2-16×16-DH-8DPi-A-R
Ask us which models have DisplayPort inputs, outputs or both.
High-I/O & Rental Systems
For larger source lists and busy rental fleets, explore higher-crosspoint MX2 models and rental-focused variants with redundant power and rugged connections.
Shown: MX2-48×48-HDMI20-A-R
Ask us about capacity, power redundancy, control and rack integration.
Beyond the connector: MX2 combines uncompressed video routing with advanced EDID management and input-signal analysis. Supported models handle UHD 60 Hz 4:4:4 at 8-bit; we check the exact resolution, refresh rate, color format, bit depth and firmware requirements for your system.

WHY SOURCE THROUGH HRE?
Buy Lightware from people who actually use it.
HRE’s Lightware experience goes back to 2006, starting with the DVI EDID Manager. Today, we use MX2 systems in our own live-event workflows and bring that perspective to your purchasing decision.
Talk with Mike Ellsworth.
HRE’s Customer Solutions Manager brings 13 years of experience at Lightware to product selection, system planning and technical support.
Choose the right configuration
Work through input/output counts, connector types, signal formats, audio requirements, control and power options before you order.
Check the complete signal path
Consider the computers, media servers, screen processors, displays, adapters and cable distances around the router—not just the matrix in isolation.
Plan for deployment
Discuss EDID configuration, system testing, training and technical support as part of the project scope. Need signal extension or fiber transport? We can help select the right Lightware products for that, too.
FROM REQUIREMENTS TO RECOMMENDATION
You bring the application. We help with the details.
01. Tell us what connects.
Share your sources, destination count, signal formats and cable distances. An approximate starting point is fine.
02. Review the options.
We help narrow down the MX2 configuration, identify compatibility questions and discuss any accessories or support needed.
03. Get a scoped quote.
Get product pricing and confirmed availability, with configuration, testing or training included when agreed in your scope.
Lightware MX2 buying questions.
Do I need an exact part number?
No. Tell us what you need to connect and what the system needs to do. We can help identify the appropriate model and configuration.
Does an MX2 replace my presentation switcher?
Not by itself. An MX2 handles signal routing; a presentation processor handles functions such as scaling, layers and seamless transitions. We help plan how they work together.
Can HRE help with more than the purchase?
Yes. Discuss system design, EDID configuration, testing, training and deployment support with us. Services and deliverables are agreed as part of your quote.
