GRASS VALLEY TRINIX NXT Datasheet

Trinix NXT
dIGItaL VIde o rout ING to 3 Gb/ s
For superior signal performance and
uncompromising reliability, the trinix
NXt digital video routing switcher
is the undisputed choice. Its unique
cleanFlow architecture lets you use
longer cable lengths while its powerful
redundancy solutions and unrivalled
reliability cannot be beaten.
The Trinix NXT digital video routing
™
switcher is designed for continuous
and reliable operation 24 hours a day,
365 days a year in large and very large
configurations. Both its signal and
switching performance lead the industry.
Its reliability and scalability are field-
proven in configurations up to 2048
inputs or outputs. It also offers more,
and more powerful, redundancy options
than any other routing switcher. Simply
put, it sets the standard and is the
secure choice for your business today
and in the future.
Superior Performance
The Trinix NXT routing switcher is
built around a unique CleanFlow
architecture. This architecture keeps
the signal path as simple as possible
while incorporating the very best and
latest circuit technology. The result is
substantially longer automatic cable
KEY FEATURES
• Digital video routing switcher –
supporting rates up to 3 Gb/s (1080p)
• Highly optimized circuitry for better
3 Gb/s and HD-SDI signal performance
• Industry-leading cable equalization
distances eases system design
• CleanFlow architecture allows for:
— Cleaner signals
— Faster switching
— Higher reliability
• Unique protected path redundancy
with passive path selection

equalization—140m for 3 Gb/s—and
superior signal stability. In addition to
3 Gb/s signal performance, the Trinix
NXT features improved SDI and HD-SDI
handling, making it the best routing
switcher for any signal type.
The Trinix NXT solution also boasts
an ultra-fast switching bus. This bus
supports hundreds of crosspoint
switches on any frame boundary to
maintain frame accuracy, even when
under a heavy load.
By adding an optional port expander,
the router can distribute each output to
two destinations. While still maintaining
excellent signal performance, this option
eliminates the need for any additional
™
distribution amplifiers, saving costs and
reducing power consumption.
Uncompromising Reliability
The reliability of the Trinix NXT routing
switcher stems from the quality of its
• Router redundancy options:
— Protected router redundancy – the
complete protection option
— Redundant matrix with automatic
failover
• Switches large numbers of
crosspoints simultaneously:
— Prevents interference between
separate operations on the same
router
— For large, simultaneous gang
switches
• Proven performance with more than
60,000,000 crosspoints installed

design and construction. Its advanced
cooling, for example, delivers longer
life with temperatures closer to ideal
values—and no hot-spots. Unobstructed
airflows inside the routing switcher and
outside its vents keep the air movement
clean and effective.
The Trinix NXT routing switcher also
offers enhanced signal protection with
three different redundancy options.
These options include powerful
protected paths and protected router
solutions, which combine survivability
with improved reliability, as well as the
redundant matrix option.
The result of all of this attention to detail
is industry-leading performance, which
results in greater predictability. As a
result, it is far easier for you to build and
maintain systems when they are based
around the robust and reliable Trinix NXT
platform.
• Lower power reduces power costs
and fan noise, and extends service
life

2048x2048 to meet your requirements
today, and as your business evolves
• Front-loading, hot-swappable
modules for ease of servicing
• Comprehensive SNMP and Web-
based monitoring for ease of
servicing, even remotely
• Routes different formats and frame
rates in the same frame – one
routing switcher satisfies all of your
operational requirements
