Twice the power. Zero compromise. The NEXX-IO-R1 redefines what's possible in modular 12G routing. Building on the foundation of the C1, the R1 doubles down on capability, delivering unmatched density, format flexibility, and integrated processing in a single-slot solution. It's the ultimate I/O module for facilities that refuse to settle.
Whether you're routing SD, HD, 3G, 6G, or 12G-SDI, the R1 handles it all with seamless precision. Every input is equipped with full-frame synchronization, even at 12G, eliminating timing headaches and simplifying signal integration across your facility. With support for coax and fiber rear plates, gear boxing, and format-agnostic routing, the R1 doesn't just keep up, it leads.
The R1 matches the C1 feature-for-feature, and then, goes further. With advanced audio tools, scaling, and full routing integration, it's engineered to meet today's needs and tomorrow's demands. Whether you're upgrading or expanding, the R1 is ready to step in and take over.
Whether deployed in a flypack, mobile unit, or facility core, NEXX-IO adapts to your infrastructure with precision and ease. With support for CWDM fiber configurations, flexible rear plate options, and seamless integration into SDI or IP environments, it's the I/O platform built for today... and ready for what's next.
