Cheetah 576XR: 576x576 3G-SDI for coax or fiber optic cables

DESCRIPTION: Cheetah 576XR (576x576) The 576XR High Definition Digital Video Routing Switcher handles a full range of digital video signals. From broadcast standards for SMPTE S259, S292, S424 and ITU-R Rec. 601 to traditional NTSC/PAL conversion using our exclusive easySFP modules; the Cheetah 576XR provides brilliant advantages for multi-format routing needs. Signal formats up to 1080p60 are supported. The 576XR provides for the widest range of rectangular and square matrix sizes. Each 27RU frame can be populated with sixteen 144x144 matrix cards allowing I/O sizes up to 576x576. Input and Output cards are based on 16 ports per blade. The matrix card and I/O card granularity allows many different square and rectangular frames sizes making it a cost effective solution when future expansion is planned. Optional features include redundant power and control. Frames can be configured using I/O cards supporting fiber, coax, both fiber and coax, or embedder/de-embedder cards to operate seamlessly with our distributed audio switch fabric. Analog conversion for NTSC/PAL can be accomplished using the easySFP module option. The 576XR supports many 3rd party control protocols as well as the full featured PESA control system offered with the 3500PRO and PERC2000 System Control Software.
