Extron Adds HD-SDI and Fiber Optic Boards to SMX Matrix
In the matrix-switching world, everyone’s been talking about Extron’s SMX Series because of the combination of performance and modularity. Technologically, this is, hands-down, the most flexible matrix switcher on the market – and I am not just some random writer saying that – I worked for two leading matrix switcher companies before writing for rAVe. Extron’s new 4×4 multi-rate SDI matrix board and two new 16×16, 4 Gbps fiber optic matrix boards for the SMX System MultiMatrix are shipping! Extron’s modular, field-configurable matrix switching platform. These new matrix boards bring the total number of available SMX matrix boards to 41, covering all popular analog and digital A/V signal types from composite video and wideband RGB to 3G-SDI, DVI, and HDMI, as well as stereo audio.The SMX Multi-Rate Serial Digital Matrix Switcher Boards are designed for routing multi-rate SDI and HD-SDI serial digital video signals from 19 Mbps to 2.97 Gbps. The boards are fully compliant with the SMPTE 424M standard for 3G-SDI. In addition, two boards can be used together to switch SMPTE 372M dual-link HD-SDI digital video signals. They are available in four I/O sizes: 4×4, 8×4, 8×8, and 16×16.
The SMX FOX 4G Fiber Optic Matrix Switcher Boards are designed for high speed digital switching up to 4.25 Gbps over singlemode or multimode fiber optic cables.
