Introduction
Overview
The Grass Valley Sirius compact SDI routers are small and cost-effective, yet robust and
reliable. All Sirius routers support full-broadcast specifications over SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G-
SDI, and single connector 12G-SDI. Additionally, Sirius routers support SDI related protocols
such as 270Mb/s DVB-ASI and Canon 3G-SDI RAW. Sirius routers are re-clocking, non-
blocking, and ready for any broadcast, production, or post production environment.
Running Embedded Linux, Sirius routers support powerful HTTP control and monitoring.
Each Sirius product contains an internal web server that allows immediate installation,
configuration, and operation without requiring additional software. It offers a powerful
user interface via any standard web browser. Sirius SDI routers are available in three
configurations:
• SCR 1616-12G - supports single connector 12G-SDI, sixteen inputs and sixteen outputs
• SCR 3232-12G - supports single connector 12G-SDI, thirty two inputs and thirty two
outputs
• SCR 6464-12G - supports single connector 12G-SDI, sixty four SDI inputs and sixty four
outputs
Because of their compact sizes, Sirius SDI routers are ideal for space-sensitive applications
such as mobile sports trucks, edit suites, corporate video installations, or live theatrical A/V
rigs.
