
Redundant power supplies (TriCaster 8000 and 860 only) ensure robust, reliable and quiet
performance in fixed or mobile installations.
 Massive storage capacity.

For 19” rack-mount models, all audio and video, monitoring and network connectors are easily
accessible from the rear for convenient installation in industry standard configurations.

Audio and video connectors are industry standard – XLR, ¼” TRS jack (both balanced), BNC or HDMI
as appropriate – ensuring broad compatibility and secure connections. Headphone output uses a
standard 1/4” TRS stereo jack.
2.6.2
MULTI-TIER FAILSAFE
TriCaster’s ‘Always on Air’ features provide multi-tiered redundant failsafe mechanisms in both hardware
and software.
To name just a few:

Multiple software failsafe systems continually monitor and safeguard the live performance. Any
recoverable software error conditions are quickly and unobtrusively dealt with.

Video pass-through (not a TriCaster Mini or Mini SDI feature) ensures that as long there is AC power,
audio and video from Input 8 (on 4RU models) or Input 4 (2RU models) are routed to Output 1 in a
case of catastrophic software condition.

If at all possible, streaming output and recording also continue even if all else fails.

TriCaster also has a comprehensive integrated system restore feature. Operators can quickly and
easily restore to factory defaults, or create a custom restore image on another drive and either
restore from that drive or use the backup drive to boot from if a complete hard drive failure ever
occurs.

Should a ‘less than ideal’ control surface USB connection fail, TriCaster will automatically restart it
without user intervention.
2.6.3
A/V INPUT AND OUTPUT

Live switch up to eight live video sources (4RU models).

TriCaster 460, 860 and 8000 support SDI and analog video input and output, plus internal and local
or remote network video sources. TriCaster 410 and Mini SDI offer HD-SDI input and output without
analog support, while TriCaster Mini employs HDMI video input and output.

Connect popular video routers to greatly multiply input options.

Professional BNC video connectors provide increased durability and reliability for camera
connections. (TriCaster Mini and Mini SDI include strain relief provisions for cabling.)
 Control supported robotic (PTZ) cameras via network or serial connection.

Freely mix 16:9 or 4:3 SD formats, and output HD sessions as HD and SD (4:3 or 16:9) simultaneously
from HD sessions.

Multiple Media Player modules allow you to insert pre-recorded video, music, sounds and imagery
into your live presentations.

Select Microsoft Windows
®
or Apple Macintosh
®
computers on the same network as Switcher inputs
for your live productions using NewTek NDI™ Scan Converter.

Update still Buffers in ‘watch folders’ from networked graphic workstations, even when these are
displayed live.
