ALL RS SERIES ROUTING SWITCHERS FEATURE:
4x4/8x8/16x8/8x16 and 16x16 Audio/Video
Matrix Routing Switchers
The RS Series are high performance, 200 MHz highband (HB) routing
switchers that are extremely versatile, easy to use and very affordable. Housed
in an ultra-thin rackmount chassis, they accept and route virtually any video
signal on the vertical interval, including off-the-air and non-time
base corrected video. They also route balanced or unbalanced
stereo audio. The audio follows the video, or you can route the
audio separately (breakaway audio).
Each of the switchers offers easy manual control via front panel
operation. They can also be controlled remotely by a computer,
a Knox RS Remote Controller, or by a Knox Remote Keypad, via their RS-232 port.
Front panel LEDs indicate the current routed pattern at all times, and an internal battery holds and restores current patterns in
case of power interruption. Ideal for applications such as distance learning, teleconferencing, duplication, post production,
home theater, broadcast, and remote trucks, they include Routemaster Software and Routemaster with Scheduler Software.
