About the XTP II CrossPoint Switchers

The XTP II CrossPoint matrix switchers are configurable, modular matrix switchers that
distribute a variety of video, audio, and data types, depending on how it is configured. A
matrix switcher routes any input signal to any combination of outputs. It can route multiple
input and output configurations simultaneously.
The XTP II CrossPoint models are assembled from user-installed and hot-swappable input
and output boards in the following quantities:

Table 1 identifies the various types of input boards and output boards currently available,
each of which can receive (input boards) or output (output boards) up to four signals (see
Input and Output Boards and Signal Types
Input Boards
XTP CP 4i (XTP input board)
Receives inputs from Extron XTP transmitters and local
serial port and IR inserts.
XTP CP 4i Fiber 4K (fiber optic input board)
Receives fiber optic and local serial port and IR inserts.
XTP II CP 4i HD 4K PLUS (HDMI
Receives 4K HDMI signals and analog audio inputs.
XTP CP 4i HDMI (HDMI
®
Receives HDMI signals and analog audio inputs.
XTP CP 4i DVI Pro (DVI Pro input board)
Receives DVI Pro signals and analog audio inputs.
XTP CP 4i 3G-SDI (3G-SDI input board)
Receives 3G, HD-SDI, and SDI video inputs and analog
audio inputs.
XTP CP 4i VGA (universal analog VGA input board)
Receives RGBHV, RGBs, RGsB, HDTV and YUV
component video, S-video and composite video analog
inputs and analog audio inputs.

The input boards convert their non-XTP inputs into the digital XTP format used by Extron
XTP transmitters and receivers and place them on the switcher backplane. The output
boards with non-XTP outputs convert the XTP signal to the appropriate format for that
output board type. Thus, as a system, the XTP II CrossPoint switchers can transcode inputs
in any valid format to the output formats supported by the family of output boards, making
them single box solutions to complex digital video signal routing applications. Each input
and output is individually isolated and buffered, and any input can be switched to any one or
all outputs with virtually no crosstalk or signal noise between channels.
XTP II CrossPoint 1600 — Supports up to four input boards and four output boards.
XTP II CrossPoint 3200 — Support up to eight input boards and eight output boards.
XTP II CrossPoint 6400 — Support up to 16 input boards and 16 output boards.
