Carbonite Family of Switchers
Designed for Live!
With Vision, we continue to build our reputation for designing switchers, automation control systems, video servers,
character generators, and terminal equipment for live news, live sports, and live production. At the center of the action, it
is important that all the equipment in your production suite integrate seamlessly to put their full power and versatility at
your control. This frees the operator to concentrate on the programming instead of the equipment, delivering a cleaner,
more professional production.
Carbonite Studio builds on the Ross Video reputation for switchers, automation control systems, video servers, character
generators, and terminal equipment for live news, live sports, and live production. At the center of the action, it is important
that all the equipment in your production suite integrate seamlessly to put their full power and versatility at your control.
This frees the operator to concentrate on the programming instead of the equipment, delivering a cleaner, more professional
production.
Carbonite eXtreme represents the cutting edge in video production innovation. By combining the video manipulation power
of the Carbonite video production switcher with the robust signal routing and management of the NK-3G144-X router you
have a combination that offers tremendous flexibility in operation and configuration with a significant cost savings. Whether
it is a mobile application where space is paramount, or an event based application where destination based routing is the
norm, Carbonite eXtreme delivers.
Designed for Linear!
The Vision family of switchers continues to build on Ross Video's reputation for setting the standard for multi-definition
linear editing suites. The traditional layout and familiar controls of the Vision control panel provide the power and ease of
use you expect from a Ross switcher.
Vision cleanly connects to virtually any editor using the industry standard GVG100/110, GVG200, and GVG4000 protocols.

With Ross Video products installed in well over 125 countries world-wide, our sales, demonstration, and training people

development of our products. Key members of the design teams are part of an ongoing program in which they provide
product demonstrations, assist with product installation, and train operators. As a result, the complete line of Ross Video
products continues to offer our legendary combination of power and ease of use.
