Getting Started with Videohub Routers
Introducing Videohub Routers
Videohub gives you freedom to customize your routing solution as you need and covers a range of
needs for different facilities.
Universal Videohub Modular Routers
These routers are for larger facilities and ship as empty rack frames into which you can install whichever
interface cards you need, depending on how many devices you want to connect. Universal Videohub
288 can route video over SDI and Optical interface cards to up to 288 destinations as well as control up
to 288 devices remotely. Universal Videohub 72 also supports SDI and Optical interface cards and can
route from 72 sources to up to 72 destinations while only taking up 9 rack units of space.
Videohub All-In-One Routers
Our all-in-one routers offer a solution for facilities that use only SDI equipment and come prebuilt so you
don't have to do any installing of crosspoint cards or interface cards. Some models have RS-422 deck
control ports, but if you don't need deck control then you might opt for one of the Smart Videohubs
which operate as both a router and a control panel.
Every Videohub needs to be networked so it can be controlled by computers and pushbutton hardware
control panels. Our software is customizable to make it as easy to operate as possible for whichever
computer screen you are using. You can even set up your router to be controlled with an iPad!
If your Videohub has previously been set up, you can jump straight to Controlling Videohub with Software
or Controlling Videohub with Hardware. These sections provide detailed information on how to change
routes with a computer or pushbutton controllers.
