Ensemble Designs Avenue 9430/9440 Flexible Matrix Router
Ensemble Designs’ Avenue 9430/9440 Flexible Matrix routers provide users with real-time thumbnail video displays of signals being switched, as well as source and destination information.
Router matrices are not pre-established, allowing purchasers to create a configuration precisely suited to their needs. The basic size is 8 x 2; however, this may be expanded to 28 x 2, 8 x 22, or other configurations. (Maximum size is 15 x 15.) The basic 8x2 router module occupies only one slot in an Avenue, or 3/10 of an RU. A fully configured router system requires only three slots.
The Flexible Matrix routers provide signal processing in addition to switching functions, including frame synchronization of all sources, and also include built-in diagnostics.
