EQXUHD-10

EQX Supporting HD/3G/6G/12G Single-Wire SDI

EQX-UHD: a 12G-SDI Enterprise Class router! Designed to support full 4K and UHD 12Gbps single-wire signals while adopting the same fundamental modular design philosophies and core redundancy concepts found in our 3G EQX routers, EQX-UHD is ideal for mission-critical and demanding 24/7 environments. A passive backplane and fully modular design allow for all critical active components to be hot-swappable from the front of the router. Featuring industry-leading path-by-path signal redundancy with redundant power, dual hot-swappable frame controllers and hot-swappable cooling fans, EQX-UHD is a true broadcast-quality enterprise router!

10RU Frame

Designed to be future-ready for 180x180 12Gbps SDI signals and suitable for many mid-sized UHD/4K applications like mobile production, mobile flight packs, network and local broadcasters, cable, sports and esports venues, military, government and corporate applications.

Input/Output Modules

With separate input and output modules, asymmetrical design are possible to fit your needs, the I/O cards functionality are no exception with support of different frame rates on a per-port basis, processing like 2sI-based 4:1 and 1:4 translation. As well a number of software enabled features like TDM audio for de-embed and re-embed, frame sync for timing asynchronous and/or unlocked signals.

Core Processing Capabilities

With de-embed and re-embed, the EQX-UHD has optional ADMX hybrid main/backup crosspoints, allowing the use of the full EMR-TDM audio module suite for integration of discrete audio without using up the valuable video ports on the router.

  • 2SI gearbox support, 4:1 on input
  • Support for different input video frame rates on a per-input basis
  • Audio SRC: lock and frame rate conversion to match the ADMX set rate
  • Pop suppressor (enable/disable)
  • Bypass, low latency and frame buffer modes
  • TDM supports external like first generation cards but now also supports internal paths

EQXUHD-OP16A(-F)

The second generation output card offers some enhanced capabilities but can also be used as a direct replacement using the same coax and SFP rear fins as the first generation modules, both generations output modules can coexist in the same frame.

  • Enhanced signal support for 12G, 6G, 3G-A, 3G-B and HD-SDI
  • 2SI gearbox support, 1:4 on output
  • Supports different video frame rates on a per-output basis
  • Audio SRC: lock and frame rate conversion to match each video output rate
  • Pop suppressor (enable/disable)
  • Bypass, low latency and frame buffer modes
  • TDM supports external like first generation cards but now also supports internal paths
