Q6400-N

Q6400 Analog Video Router

The Q6400-N router is a mid-sized analog video router.

Configuration: The Q6400-N is housed in a 3RU frame. The Q6400-N is available in three fixed sizes, 32x32, 64x32 and 64x64. The Q6400-N can be upgraded by returning the router to the local service centre.

Control: The Q6400-N router includes, as standard, an internal Frame Controller module which supports a single Q-Link and Serial port on the rear of the router. The optional internal CI module can be fitted to the Q6400-N to increase the number of Q-Link and Serial ports.

The Q6400-N has a number of control options, they are:

Passive Remote Control Panels: The CP-1601A-P and CP-1604-P passive remote control panels can be fitted to the Q6400-N router via a PI-1604 or PI-1608 parallel interface.

Remote Control Panel: Any panel(s) from the entire range of Quartz remote control panels can be used with the Q6400-N router connected via Q-Link.

External Third Party Control: The Q6400-N router can be remotely controlled via an external third party control device, such as an automation system, when connected to the routers serial port.

Expansion: The input or output stage of the Q6400-N can be expanded from 16 to 32. In both cases the router needs to be returned to the local service centre to be upgraded. It can not be expanded beyond its frame size.

Power Supply: The power supply for the Q6400-N is internal. An optional redundant power supply with separate AC power inlet and alarm output is available.

Features

Analog Video 50MHz bandwidth and terminated inputs for best possible signal performance DC restored inputs for composite signals ensures switching free from the picture disturbances often encountered in D.C. coupled only designs Vertical interval switching for clean switching, reverts to free running if no sync reference (video or pulse) with all levels of the same route switching in the same field Dual 525/625 reference input

Operational Features Frames can be stacked for parallel component analogue video routers, or a single frame can be split to provide separate routers from a single frame Diagnostic monitoring of temperature and PSU status All modules are installed from the front for easy access for upgrades and maintenance, not possible with some alternative designs Built-in control system
