Frequently asked questions
Can these products work together?
Not directly. The HPX-900SL is a passive connectivity hub for routing audio/video/data cables, while the MET-6NE-BL is an active control keypad. You would use both in the same installation—the HPX-900SL to organize connectors in the table and the MET-6NE-BL to control the AV system those connectors feed.
Which one requires programming or network configuration?
The MET-6NE-BL requires network setup (Ethernet connection and PoE power source) and button programming to control your AV system. The HPX-900SL is passive infrastructure—you simply select and install the HydraPort modules that match your connector needs.
What's the minimum table thickness for the HPX-900SL?
The HPX-900SL requires a minimum mounting surface thickness of 3/4 inch (19 mm). Verify your table meets this specification before installation.
Does the MET-6NE-BL work in non-networked AV systems?
No. The MET-6NE-BL is designed for networked AV infrastructure and requires RJ-45 Ethernet connectivity with Power over Ethernet (802.3af). It is not suitable for non-networked or standalone AV setups.
