1.3. THE 3025SW PLATFORM
The 3025SW is designed to support 3 Gb/s, HD and SD video formats, including: 525i/59.94, 625i/50,
720p/59.94, 720p/50, 1080i/59.94, 1080i/50, 1080p/50, and 1080p/59.94 (SMPTE-425M-A & SMPTE-
425M-B). Each 3025SW processes a complete Program and Preset path each routed from one of the
14 (maximum) inputs to the internal router. One of internal router inputs can also be used to quickly go
to a safe feed in case of an on-air emergency.
The 3025SW provides a Program output and a full "look-a-head" Preview of the next transition. It
provides two clean outputs, where video and audio are taken from either Program or Preview user
configured point in the processing path. The 3025SW has built-in bypass relays, which provide
maximum protection for the Program and Clean feed in cases of failure. For audio, the 3025SW
provides support for 16 channels of embedded audio on the Program, Preset, and Emergency inputs.
Embedded audio is also de-embedded from other internal router inputs to provide more audio mixing
options.
