EQX-IO

EQX Family - Input & Output Flexibility

The EQX family has many I/O options as well a number of frame sizes to fit your needs. The 10RU frame supports 180x180 plus X-LINK outputs, the 16RU frame supports 288x288 plus X-LINK outputs, the 26RU frame will support 576x576 plus X-LINK, if you need more outputs check out the OP36 output cards that can double a single frame OP capabilities, we also offer multi-frame configurations for 1152x1152 and larger systems. All EQX router systems can be paired up with our EMR-AUDIO routing solution that also has different audio XPT sizes (up to 30K x 30K) of unblocking mono any audio to any audio routing to fit your needs.

EQX Standard I/O Modules - Current Generation

Our current generation I/O modules can physically share the dual slot rear fins, coax or SFP, for quick swapping and moving of modules. The EQX–SCX modules are designed to support existing SDI workflows, where the base module is function– and cost–equivalent to a traditional green input module with AVM and SNMP monitoring capabilities. These modules also allow for a software license key to enable light processing, like TDM for audio de–embedding on input and embedding on output with audio DSP functionality for all 18 video paths.

EQX–S–IP18 Includes the 18 video input basic main module (EQX–S–IP18) and HDBNC rear fin (EQX–HBX–ICXQ–RP). Licenses are sold separate.

EQX–S–IP18–F Includes the 18 video input basic main module (EQX–S–IP18) and SFP input rear fin (EQX–HBX–ICS–RP). Licenses are sold separate.

EQX–S–IP18–B Includes the 18 video input basic main module (EQX–S–IP18) and BNC input rear fin (EQX–HBX–IB–RP). Licenses are sold separate.

EQX UHD Capable I/O Modules - Current Generation

Our current generation I/O modules can physically share the dual slot rear fins, coax or SFP, for quick swapping and moving of modules, even between different common rear fin types. The EQX-HBX are design as our most advanced processing modules and will prepare your new and existing EQX router for the future with a number of license enabled features, offering deployed solutions for that single-wire 12G-SDI as traditional 1:4 uncompressed 2sI Gearbox or unlock all 18 video paths by leveraging JPEG XS internally. Optionally the module can be licensed for video over IP connection to Evertz and COTS IP cores using industry standards like SMPTE ST 2110 and NMOS discovery and control.
