X-1202S X-1202S-AES X-1202S-AES4 12x2 SDI Router with Dual or Quad 12x2 AES Audio Manual

The X-1202S SDTV twelve input routing switcher provides a convenient, low-cost way to route standard definition serial digital signals. The X-1202S routers are used for 270, 360, 540Mb/s and DVB-ASI serial digital signals. When the unit is ordered with the Dual 12x2 AES router or Quad 12x2 AES router options, the AES output busses can be used in an “audio follow video” mode or can be broken away from the video buss. It features redundancy protection by providing dual power supply and bypass relay options. The router electronics are housed in a 1RU rackmount frame and controlled from the built-in front panel controls. Each model can also be purchased with an optional rack mount remote control panel that replaces the built-in control panel or can be used as a second control panel. All units can also be controlled by contact closures on the GPI control port or through the RS-232 or RS-422 serial remote control port using industry-standard switcher protocols.

About this manual

The X-1202S is a 12‑input, 2‑bus SDI video router housed in a 1RU rackmount frame. It supports SMPTE 259M (270 Mb/s, 360 Mb/s, 540 Mb/s) and DVB‑ASI signals, with optional dual power supplies and bypass relay protection for redundancy. Control can be performed from the front panel, an optional remote panel, GPI, or RS‑232/RS‑422 serial ports using standard switcher protocols.

Optional SoftSwitch™ and Embedded SoftSwitch™ features eliminate audible pops during audio switching and provide adjustable video timing. The router offers configurable AES audio outputs (AES or AES4) and a range of ordering options for breakout panels, power supplies, and control accessories.
