expands its portfolio of wide screen intercom
enabled touch panels with the launch of its new
5-inch Modero Wall/Flush Mount Touch Panel

most advanced 5-inch touch panel in the world,
the new product is measured only 2-inch deep
and connected with just one cable collectively

Commenting on the world’s simplest
5-inch panel, Rashid Skaf, president and CEO of
AMX said, “NXD-500i is the latest touch panel
to join the AMX intercom-enabled family,”
mentioning that the panel is the company’s first
power over Ethernet panel, and so over a single
Cat5, we are now providing voice, audio, video,
control and power. “I am extremely proud of
my design team for packaging this feature rich
product into such a small package, while still
focusing on simplifying the installation process”,
he added.

hallmark of innovation in the world’s biggest AV

intercom for panel-to-panel communication
via any other ‘i-Series’ Modero Touch Panel

could easily fit inside narrow walls, NXD-500i
