Revision 1.0 VIP-X - 7

2.1.4. EQX 26RU

The EQX 26RU router can be used as a VIP-X foundation platform, offering the largest possible

footprint for both router and multi-image displays. EQX 26RU offers up to 576 3G/HD/SD inputs and

576 outputs for signal routing. The EQX26 is “X-LINK” enabled via the addition of the EQX-OP36-

XLINK output module and two EQX16-288x288 cross point modules installed in the primary and

redundant cross point locations for the frame. A maximum of sixteen EQX-OP36-XLINK output

modules can be installed in the EQX 26RU frame.
