XTP CrossPoint Series • Introduction

Product Description
The XTP CrossPoint Series matrix switchers are configurable, modular switchers that
distribute a variety of video, audio, and data types, depending on its configuration. A matrix
switcher routes any input signal to any combination of outputs. It can route multiple signals
at once.
The XTP CrossPoint Series models are assembled from user-installed and hot-swappable
input and output boards in the following quantities:
•
XTP CrossPoint 1600
— Supports up to four input boards and four output boards.
•
XTP CrossPoint 3200
— Supports up to eight input boards and eight output boards.
The table below identifies the various types of input boards and output boards currently
available, each of which can receive (input boards) or output (output boards) up to four
signals (see

analog audio inputs.
XTP CP 4i VGA
(universal analog VGA input board)
Receives RGBHV, RGBs, RGsB, HDTV, and YUV
component video, S-video, and composite video
analog inputs and analog audio inputs.
The input boards convert their non-XTP inputs into the digital XTP format used by Extron
XTP transmitters and receivers and place them on the matrix switcher backplane. The
output boards with non-XTP outputs convert the XTP signal to the appropriate format
for that output board type. Thus, as a system, the XTP CrossPoint matrix switchers can
transcode inputs in any valid format to the output formats supported by the family of
output boards, making them single box solutions to complex digital video signal routing
applications. Each input and output is individually isolated and buffered, and any input can
be switched to any one or all outputs with virtually no crosstalk or signal noise between
channels.
