Evertz 64×64 AESU+MADI Audio Router
Product Details
Xenon brings many advanced new capabilities to the world of routing switchers, building on a new generation design that starts with a solid, multi-format router core
In today’s broadcast environment, a router must be reliable, resilient and cost effective. The Xenon excels in all of these areas while offering the flexibility of multiformat operation, and the ability to add Signal Processing Technology.
Great care has been taken in the design of the Xenon to avoid single points of failure. Active assemblies are all hot swappable from the front of the frame. Power, control, cooling and reference generation are available in redundant configurations.
