Figure 9. A Single Switching Matrix
Any of the 10 inputs (numbered 0 to 9) can be routed to any of the 10
outputs (numbered 0 to 9). One input can also be routed to more than one
output. All the possible routes are represented by the intersections of the
horizontal and vertical lines in the illustration. The points where the lines
meet (crosspoints) can be thought of as switches that allow the inputs to be
connected to the outputs. In this example, three crosspoints are on (as indi
-
cated by the X symbols), and the following routes are made:
• Input 2 is routed to Output 1 and Output 4.
• Input 7 is routed to Output 6.
Sources and Destinations Description
Sources consist of input signals to the router, and Destinations are output
signals from the router. An individual Source or Destination may contain
more than one signal. For example, a Source may consist of a video and a
key signal; be separate Red, Green, and Blue video signals; or have a video
signal and several associated audio signals. Each signal type is considered
a Level. In general, a Source and Destination need to be configured with
same number and type of Levels in order for Takes connecting them to be
successful.
