Features

These HD (SMPTE 292) - SDI (SMPTE 259) serial digital video matrix routing switching systems employ the newest digital video automatic cable equalization and re-clocking technology.

16 NEW COMPACT SWITCHERS ADDED IN 2008 These systems are all 1RU in height and less than 5 inches deep, allowing their installation is the tightest of space and weight limited (less than 5 pounds) situations. These new models are listed in the table below. The additions include an 8x1 and 16x1 with quad outputs; an 8x4 with dual outputs (a total of eight outputs); an updated 4x4 also with dual outputs. Each of these compact HD (SMPTE 292) - SDI (SMPTE 259) serial digital video matrix routing switching can be ordered with an optional local control panel and or AES3 75 ohm S/PDIF digital audio built in.

Matrix Switch Corporation HD SDI matrix routing switchers employ a flexible and user friendly control system. In addition to a simple and logical RS232 ASCII protocol that is currently supported by a number of third party control companies, these VGA switchers have other easy to use control ports. Each system has a built in web page. Unlike GUI software that must be loaded on a PC which may be OS dependent, have conflict issues or compromise system performance, the built in web page will run on any platform and with any web browser. In addition Matrix Switch Corporation offers a selection of remote control panels. These panels are TCP/IP Ethernet based, which give you the greatest flexibility in placement, quantity and how they will be networked.

The remote software update feature allows new software with new features to be easily re-loaded via the Ethernet port without the need to open up the system, use any special programming systems or development system software.

Because the optional remote control control panels are TCP/IP based there is no distance limit between the panels and the switcher electronics.
