This high capacity video router is designed for large broadcast infrastructures, central machine rooms and live production environments where reliability, flexibility and signal integrity are essential. Housed in a robust four rack unit chassis, it enables simultaneous routing of SD, HD and Ultra HD signals without any latency, ensuring flawless performance even in the most demanding workflows. By supporting all SDI standards up to 2160p60, it provides long term format security for modern and future proof installations.
The front panel is built for confident, fast paced operation. A large full HD LCD display allows operators to view live video sources before routing, while clearly presenting routing labels and detected video standards. This visual feedback is invaluable in complex systems with many connected sources and destinations. Direct entry buttons combined with a large precision spin knob featuring an electronic clutch allow accurate routing decisions to be made quickly and safely.
Eighty 12G-SDI inputs and eighty 12G-SDI outputs provide extensive connectivity, making this unit ideal as the central routing hub of a facility. Each input automatically detects its SDI standard independently, allowing different formats and frame rates to coexist seamlessly. LEDs on every input BNC give instant visual confirmation of signal presence, simplifying troubleshooting and system verification. Full SDI reclocking on all outputs ensures clean, stable signals across long cable runs, maintaining broadcast quality throughout the distribution chain.
Designed for continuous operation, the chassis incorporates redundant power supplies to maximise uptime and operational security. Reference connectivity supports both tri sync and black burst, with a loop through reference output for easy integration into synchronised environments. External control is provided via Ethernet, supporting software control panels for macOS and Windows as well as dedicated hardware panels. A USB-C connection is included for configuration and software updates, while crosspoint settings are preserved and instantly restored after power interruptions.
With its combination of exceptional routing density, intuitive local control and enterprise level reliability, this solution is perfectly suited for national broadcasters, large studios, OB vans and complex live event systems that demand uncompromising performance at scale.
