The 800 Series Routing Switchers are wide bandwidth vertical interval switchers designed for professional video production facilities. The compact design of Link’s routing switchers makes them an essential part of any facility.

Packaged in a 19” rack mountable chassis, the switchers are supplied with a single front-loaded power supply. An optional redundant power supply is available. High quality front panel push buttons are used for selection of inputs and outputs.

Remote control panels are interconnected with standard Ethernet 10Base2 single coax connections. RS-232 is provided through a standard D-sub connector. Panels can be set to control a single output bus or the entire matrix.

The 863-1616HD is a high definition video router with AES audio follow, also supports SDI.

The Link Switcher’s flexibility is unmatched in the industry. Modular construction offers unique flexibility to the user, and provides an easy means of adding additional features or upgrading to digital modules. Power supplies are accessible from the front of the unit and may be easily installed or removed. SDI switching may easily be converted to analog by adding field installable modules.

Industry standard BNC connectors are used for video inputs and removable 3-Pin connectors are used for stereo audio inputs and outputs.

Routers are available for analog video only, analog video with stereo audio follow, digital video only, and digital video with two-stream AES/EBU audio follow. (Note: the 32 x 32 router is available with SDI and HD/SDI switching.) The router is supplied with the local control panel with audio break-away.
