MaxColor or 3G: Feature Comparison


Overview

When building a new AV over IP system, Just Add Power offers two 4K systems:

  1. MaxColor - released in 2022
  2. 3G Ultra - released in 2015

Our company philosophy is to support products for decades, so both of these systems will be around for a long time. You need only look to our support for 2G (released in 2010 and still supported today) to see our commitment to protecting your investment.

You can find a simple, marketing comparison between the two systems on the Platform Differences page on our main website.

This article addresses the further technical comparisons between them.

Features

Aside from video differences, the MaxColor and 3G Ultra systems offer different support for Just Add Power features; mainly because of how new MaxColor is. We plan on adding all of these features to MaxColor, but it will take time.
