1 Introduction
The SW808 is an SDI and DVB-ASI compatible, 8 x 8 crosspoint routing switch.
Switch synchronisation is provided by either SDI or analogue references, allowing the
SW808 to switch in the vertical blanking interval to avoid picture disturbance. The
designated switching lines are 6 and 319 in 625 line systems and 10 and 273 in 525 line.
There is also provision to switch immediately for cases where there is no common
reference.
