Expand your 4K/8K routing freedom with 12G-SDI I/O and gearbox support offering the most inputs and outputs. The MFR-5000 Series is a group of multi-format routing switchers supporting 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI, ASI, AES and RS-422. Inside the 8 U case a matrix of up to 128 inputs/128 outputs can be configured. It offers expansive flexibility at the core of your system, such as tally connections with peripheral devices (video switchers and multi viewers) and automatic source name tracking.
Add the MFR-16SDIGB and MFR-16SDOGB cards for conversion of video (quad link 3G-SDI/12G-SDI) and mapping (2SI/SQD) formats. These options open the door for equipment previously incompatible with 12G-SDI, enabling system building focused on this new specication.
Since routing switchers are the core of large video systems, we have engineered a variety of features to ensure full redundancy.
The input/output board has 16 channels and up to 8 boards can be installed together. As a result, matrices of up to 128 input/128 output can be configured.
A variety crosspoint control features are possible in addition to normal crosspoint switching.
One routing switcher can be virtually partitioned to build any theoretical hierarchy, creating possibilities for use in various operations.
Remote monitoring by SNMP is supported and the router can easily be integrated into an SNMP monitoring system. In this way you can monitor the status of various items including: power source, fan, CPU, presence/absence of signals, crosspoint errors and more.
We offer several types or remote control unit to suit your application. The number of units that can be connected is a maximum of 128, including the main unit. This lets you build a flexible control environment by the way you partition the matrix and make operation level settings. Please refer to MFR-RU series page for the lineup and details.
The interface expansion unit lineup includes two types to suit your specific application. The number of units that can be connected is a maximum of 128, including the remote control units.
Provides an interface for GPI control. This 1 RU sized unit is equipped with user-assignable GPI/O (128 channels) and 4 serial ports (9-pin D-sub male). It can be used for setting Input/Output and supports system configuration.
MFR-TALM is a device for performing central management of tally and material names of the MFR main unit and peripheral devices (such as video switchers and multi viewers). In the tally linking system like the one shown to the right (Fig. 1), MFR-TALM performs the tally calculation, which were originally performed by the MFR main unit, so that the tally linking can be speeded up.
Multiple remote control units can be combined to make them function as a large scale control panel.
For 128 x 128 full control + system settings:MFR-40RU x 4 + MFR-39RUA x 1
The MFR-5000 enables tally linking with FOR-A’s video switcher HANABI Series and multi viewer MV Series. And when switching between sources on the MFR-5000 side, the source name displayed by the video switcher or multi viewer can also change automatically. It supports TSL and Harris protocol, enabling linkage with 3rd party equipment.
