XRF1A
1RU 8x8 and 16x16 RF Routers
The XRF1A is an RF signal routing matrix for L-Band and IF satellite communications signals. Housed in a compact 1RU chassis and available in 8x8 or 16x16 matrix sizes, the XRF1A is a full-featured routing matrix with automatic or manual gain control and RF power meters on each input channel, as well as optional LNB power supplies. Advanced capabilities, such as salvos allow multiple matrix path changes with the push of a button.
The XRF1A features a built-in local control panel and optional remote control panel for crosspoint control and system configuration. Additionally, this flexible routing matrix can be controlled, configured and monitored via serial control and/or SNMP control over Ethernet using Evertz® X-NCP2 panel, VistaLINK® or other third party control software.
The XRF1A is scalable to 16x16 (with the 8x8 model) or 32x32 (with the 16x16 model) by connecting multiple frames in conjunction with Evertz® SRF series passive RF splitters/combiners, which provide matrix expansion without compromising system reliability.
