For mid-range multi-format routing switcher systems, PESA’s Cheetah 128NE offers support for 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI, ASI, embedded audio and CWDM signals. Inside the 7 RU frame a single 128×128 crosspoint matrix supports I/O expansion in groups of 16. Each frame includes slots for redundant control, redundant power and easy access to hot-swap components for mission critical system architecture requirements. The 128NE frame I/O card options allow incredible flexibility by allowing systems to be designed around the widest range of connector and signal types. Input and Output cards are available for coax and fiber with options to include CWDM fiber supporting up to 16 HD-SDI channels over one fiber optic cable or embedding/de-embedding up to 16 channels per video port. The 128NE supports many 3rd party control protocols as well as the full featured PESA control system offered with the 3500PRO and PERC2000 System Control Software.
