•

"

Monitor

" refers to the monitor attached to the monitor matrix port of a video or audio 

router system.

•

"

High Definition

"  " refers to signals conforming to the SMPTE -292 specification. The typ-

ical high definition data rate is 1.485 Gb/sec or 1.483 Gb/sec and a 16:9 Aspect Ratio Pic-
ture characterizes this technology.

•

"

Serial Digital

"   Interface (SDI)" refers to the serial digital video signal operating at either 

SMPTE -259 in ABCD or SMPTE -344.

Routing Switcher Basics

A routing switcher is a specialized form of broadcast equipment that allows the user to connect 
large numbers of source and destination devices together electronically – without patching or 
running cables across floors and without significant signal loss.

The routing switcher solves connectivity problems and increases signal qualities in a wide 
variety of applications.  The technologies of routing switchers now include the standard ana-
logue, digital video, digital audio, and increasingly the high definition formats.

The routing switcher provides the user with the following advantages:

•

Many signal levels (determined by the system size) may be switched simultaneously.

• A simple route connects (switches) one signal level from one source (for example a 

VTR) to one destination (a monitor).

• A complex route would connect multiple signal levels from one source to multiple 

destinations, including tie lines. For example, a satellite feed to a group of VTRs and 
monitors.

•

Audio and video signal levels can be switched in groups (all follow takes) or individually 
(breakaway takes).  Any input can be switched to any output, limited only by the matrix 
size.

•

The Routing Switcher may be controlled manually via control panels, or with computer con-
trolled automation.
