Inputs: Video on female BNC connectors; audio on captive screw connectors
•
Outputs: Video on female BNC connectors; audio on captive screw connectors
•
300 MHz (-3 dB) RGB video bandwidth, fully loaded — Designed for routing
most common high resolution computer-video rates without signal degradation. The
CrossPoint 300 Series provides a minimum 300 MHz (-3 dB) of RGB video bandwidth at
full performance capability when one input drives all outputs.
•
Extremely flat response to 130 MHz — Switcher performance is further enhanced by
the extremely flat response in the critical portion of the bandwidth curve, between 0 and
130 MHz.
•
ADSP
™
- Advanced Digital Sync Processing technology — An exclusive, all digital
process that regenerates the sync signal waveform and restores incoming sync level to
5.0 V p-p specifications. This ensures a stable image for improved signal compatibility
with any LCD, DLP, plasma, or other digital display device.
•
Compatible with RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, HDTV, component video, S-video, composite
video, and unbalanced/balanced stereo audio — CrossPoint 300 Series models
switch separate horizontal and vertical sync to ensure proper sync polarity, providing a
more stable image.
•
Buffered I/O — Each input and output is individually buffered to provide maximum
performance and virtually no crosstalk or signal interference between channels.
•
HVA models switch both balanced and unbalanced stereo audio
•
Audio input gain and attenuation — Allows users to set the level of gain or
attenuation for each audio input channel, eliminating noticeable volume differences
when switching between sources.
•
Audio output volume adjustment and muting — Can be set dynamically for each
channel through the front panel or serial control, eliminating the need for an audio
preamplifier in many system designs.
•
Audio breakaway — Provides the capability to break an audio signal away from its
corresponding video signal, allowing the audio and video signals from one source to be
switched to different destinations.
•
QS-FPC
™
- QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller — Provides a discrete button for
each input and output, allowing for simple, intuitive operation.
•
Front panel security lockout — Prevents unauthorized use when the matrix switcher
is installed in an unsecured environment where easy access is not desirable. In lockout
mode, a special button combination is required to operate the front panel.
•
Front panel I/O buttons may be easily labeled with any Brother
®
P-touch
labeler or included Extron label software — Each input can be labeled with name,
alphanumeric characters, or color bitmaps for easy and intuitive selection of inputs
and outputs.
•
View I/O mode — Easily view which inputs and outputs are actively connected.
•
Global presets — Frequently used I/O configurations may be saved and recalled either
from the front panel or serial control. This time-saving feature allows you to set up I/O
configurations and store them in memory for future use.
•
RS-232 and RS-422 serial control port — Using serial commands, the
CrossPoint 300 Series can be controlled and configured via the included Windows-based
control software, or integrated into third-party control systems. Extron products use the
SIS
™
- Simple Instruction Set command protocol, a set of basic ASCII code commands
that allow for quick and easy programming. The RS-232 and RS-422 port also makes it
easy to install firmware updates.
•
Control software — Provides a graphical, drag-and-drop interface for I/O configuration
and other customization functions via RS-232 and RS-422 remote control. This software
also offers an emulation mode for configuration of an offsite matrix switcher; the I/O
configuration may be saved for future downloading to the matrix switcher.
•
Optional remote control — Optional X/Y control
panels, bus control panels, and keypads provide the
flexibility to control a CrossPoint 300 Series matrix
switcher from a remote location.
•
Rack-mountable metal enclosure — All CrossPoint
300 Series matrix switchers are housed in 19-inch
wide metal enclosures.
•
Internal international power supply — The
100-240VAC, 50/60 Hz, universal power supply
provides worldwide power compatibility.
deScriPtion
The Extron CrossPoint 300 Series of Wideband RGBHV Matrix Switchers provide a convenient
single box solution for most common high resolution video and audio routing system designs. A
total of 15 models are available in eight I/O sizes, ranging from 4x2 to 16x16. They are ideal for
general use in a wide range of signal distribution applications, including corporate boardrooms
and training facilities, college and university settings, health care, and other high-utilization
facilities where reliable switching is required.
CrossPoint 300 Series models are available in two versions: "HV" for switching RGBHV signals
without audio, and "HVA" for switching RGBHV and balanced or unbalanced stereo audio.
Video Features
All CrossPoint 300 Series models feature a minimum of 300 MHz (-3 dB) RGB video bandwidth,
fully loaded. This is a worst case specification, when one input drives all outputs. In normal
usage, video bandwidth generally exceeds the 300 MHz (-3 dB) rating. Switcher performance
is further enhanced by a remarkably flat response in the critical portion of bandwidth curve,
between 0 and 130 MHz. This underscores the switcher's consistent performance, with minimal
signal loss or gain, across the frequency spectrum.
