Summary
There are two ways to use the CR6400 routers and the CP6464:
• A single stand-alone CR6400 router with a “captive” CP6464 control panel.
• A network of stand-alone CR6400 routers with a captive panel (or panels).
Terminology
It is essential for the material that follows to define the terms “source” and “destination.”
In general, the terms source and destination refer to devices (e.g., VTRs, cameras, monitors) that
can be connected to the I/O cards of the router. In discussions of routers, we usually think of
sources and destinations only as the connectors to which a device is connected and we ignore
the devices. (In fact, the router functions properly regardless of whether it is actually connected
to any devices.)
A port is a single connector (DIN 1.0/2.3) on a router.
An input port, or just input , is one that receives a signal.
An output port, or just output , is one that sends a signal.
For a Single Router
1 A source is a one input at the rear of the CR6400 router.
2 A destination is one output at the rear of the CR6400 router.
A CR6400 router has a 64×64 switching matrix and thus supports up to 64 inputs and 64
outputs.
For a Router Network
1 A destination is set of N outputs on the CR6400s in the network, where N is the number of
routers. A destination uses the same output on all N routers.
For example, destination 55 comprises output 55 on router 1, output 55 on router 2, output
55 on router 3, and output 55 on router 4. (All available levels are included in the destination)
