Routers support SDI formats from SD formats to 3G/HD. Their superior design allows for image switching and signal distribution without artifacts. They all feature a genlock input with loop through, ensuring that all switching is synchronized with the house sync. The routers can be controlled from the front panel, RS-232, Ethernet connections or the Encore and ScreenPRO-II presentation systems. Barco's MatrixPRO-II SDI router series allows a single unit to be subdivided into multiple layers.
