End Of Life
Product Overview
Now you can afford to connect everyone together in both HD or SD and eliminate the mess of manually patching editing systems to decks
Industrial Strength Routing Switcher
Workgroup Videohub eliminates complicated manual cable patching by connecting everyone together into a fully featured professional routing switcher, which previously only large television companies could afford. Workgroup Videohub automatically switches between standard definition SDI and high definition SDI with full 12x24 routing. With 12 extra independent SDI monitoring outputs allowing separate monitoring direct from the router, also included are 12 RS-422 deck control ports with two channels in internal processing for HD down conversion and a keying frame store. Compatibility with all SDI based equipment is assured, as all connections are compliant with SMPTE-292M, SMPTE-259M, SMPTE-296M and ITU-R BT.656.
Video routing switchers are popular in high end post production because they allow non technical people to connect to each other and share broadcast decks without the complexity of manual cable patching. Remote switching via your IP network means you don’t even need to walk to a central patch panel which is great when there are many people are working on the same client job.
Features • 12 independent dual rate switchable SDI inputs compatible with both HD-SDI or Standard Definition SDI
• 24 independent dual rate switchable SDI outputs compatible with both HD-SDI or Standard Definition SDI. 12 outputs for decks and editing stations and 12 outputs dedicated for monitoring and dubbing
• Inputs and outputs compliant with SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 259M and ITU-R BT.656
• Automatically selects between HD-SDI and Standard Definition SDI. If input video standard changes, any outputs routed from that input match the input standard automatically. Allows simultaneous connection of both High Definition and Standard Definition equipment in you facility using the one router
• Any input can be routed to any of the 24 SDI video outputs
• Router input, output, control and monitoring outputs are grouped in simplte to understand layout so non technical users can easily connect decks and edit stations
• Real time video processor built in with 2 additional independent inputs and outputs on router. Future software updates for down conversion, mixing and logo keying possible
• 12 Independent Sony™ compatible RS-422 serial contorl ports. Each port independently reversible via software control to allow broadcast decks or editing workstations to be connected to any port
• Serial control ports can be independently routed from video connections
• Full SDI reclocking supported allowing full SDI cable lengths on both inputs and outputs without data errors
• Reclocking automatically detects between HD-SDI or Standard Definition SDI video
• Computer based software router control panel for Mac OS X™ and Windows™
• Router communications via USB connected host computer and other networked computers with communication via host computer Ethernet
• Router connections preserved in case of power failure and connections recover immediately when power restored
• Two routers can be connected in parrallel for 12 x 24 Dual Link 4:4:4 video routing
• Reversible rack mount in 3 Rack Unit size. Mount front side for traditional installation or mount in reverse for patch panel style installation
• Compact design is less that 1 inch deep, allowing router to be mounted in rear side of equipment racks saving valuable space
• External DC power supply for safety and rapid change over in case of fault
