VEEMUX® SM-8X8-SDI (Front & Back)



Features & Applications

The VEEMUX® SDI/HD-SDI/3G-SDI Video Matrix Switch routes broadcast quality high definition video from up to 16 SDI digital video sources to up to 16 displays.
  • Configure and control the switch through Ethernet, serial port, or front panel buttons.
  • Supports SMPTE 259M, SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 424M video interfaces used for broadcast-grade video.
    • SMPTE 259M: SD-SDI (Standard-Definition Serial Digital Interface), supports 480i, 576i resolutions at 270 Mbps bitrate.
    • SMPTE 292M: HD-SDI (High-Definition Serial Digital Interface), supports 720p, 1080i resolutions at 1.485 Gbps bitrate.
    • SMPTE 424M: 3G-SDI (3 Gbit/s Serial Digital Interface), supports 1080p resolution at 2.97 Gbps bitrate.
  • Supports SDI/HD-SDI/3G-SDI digital video signals in synchronous or asynchronous switching.
  • Supports HDTV resolutions up to 1080p.
  • Each input can be independently connected to any or all outputs.
  • With professional SDI cabling, extend 3G-SDI to 459 feet, HD-SDI to 656 feet, and SD-SDI (standard-definition serial digital interface) to 1,312 feet.
  • Intelligent power management and internal case temperature detection allow the unit to operate much more reliably.
  • Internal memory allows frequently used matrix switch configurations to be recalled easily.
  • Supports clock recovery and automatic equalization for compatibility with HDTVs.
