The new interface streamlines operations by allowing the technical director in the production control room to access any input of PESA's Cheetah multi-rate video router (pictured) directly from the Snell & Wilcox Kahuna control surface.
PESA and Snell & Wilcox have announced a new interface linking the PESA 3500PRO router control system and the Snell & Wilcox Kahuna SD/HD production switcher.
The interface streamlines operations by allowing the technical director in the production control room to access any input of PESA's Cheetah multi-rate video router directly from the Kahuna control surface.
The interface between the Kahuna production switcher and the 3500PRO control software, which in turn is connected to the Cheetah router, gives the Kahuna operator direct control over Cheetah inputs. Router source names are transferred over to the production switcher control panel, and a physical connection between the Kahuna processing unit and the Cheetah router allows for the passage of video in either SDI or HD-SDI format.
