The S8400 Digital ENG/SNG product provides the unique functionality of 6 individual routing, timing and distribution products in just one 2RU frame. Developed for the ENG/SNG vehicle industry, the S8400 simplifies the design of new DTV broadcast vehicles (or digital retrofits) by providing the core requirements in an easy to install, space-saving and cost-effective design.

Included in the system is an 8x4 SDI video router, combined either with an 8x4 AES/EBU or analog stereo audio crosspoint, a 525/625 digital sync generator, a digital SMPTE color bar generator, tone generator, character ID generator, plus optional video and audio D-to-A converters.

This S8400 modular approach to the integration of routing, timing and distribution provides integrators with a reduction in cabling complexity, power requirements, rack space and payload weight while increasing system flexibility and convenience.

Included is a 2RU primary control panel offering enhanced operational functionality by integrating router control and an intercom station. The intercom is compatible with either ClearCom or RTS systems. The system is also available without the intercom station.

Specify options desired and video standard (525/60 or 625/50) at time of order.
Note: Intercom accessories, such as microphone and headset must be purchased separately from appropriate manufacturers of these items.
