Introduction
About the Digital XPoint Series Matrix Switchers
The Extron Digital XPoint Series Matrix Switchers are serial digital interface (SDI)
matrix switchers that distribute any SDI input to any combination of SDI outputs.
The matrix switchers can route multiple input/output configurations
simultaneously. Two matrix sizes are available:
• DXP 44 SDI (four inputs by four outputs)
• DXP 88 SDI (eight inputs by eight outputs)
The switchers conform to the SMPTE 259M specifications and route signals in all
composite (143 Mb/s and 177 Mb/s), component 4:2:2 (270 Mb/s), and widescreen
16:9 (360 Mb/s) SDI video standards. Each input signal is equalized: a 270 Mb/s
input signal is equalized for distances of 1000 feet (350 meters) on high quality
cable such as Extron SuperFlex SHR Super High Resolution coaxial cable. Each
input signal is buffered and looped through to allow it to be sent to other
equipment. Each output has dual buffered and equalized BNC outputs (two
identical output signals per output) (figure 1-1).

Figure 1-1 — Typical Digital XPoint Switcher application
The switcher has an RS-232/422 port for local control. The switcher can be
controlled via the front panel or using the Extron Simple Instruction Set™ (SIS™)
and/or Extron’s Windows-based control program via the RS-232/422 link.
The Digital XPoint Series Matrix Switchers are housed in rack-mountable, 1U high,
17.5” wide metal enclosures. With the included mounting brackets, the switchers
can be rack mounted, mounted under a desk or table, or mounted against a wall or
the side of a desk. Each model has an internal 100VAC to 240VAC, 50/60 Hz,
40 watts autoswitchable power supply that provides worldwide power
compatibility.
