Introduction
General
The Trinix family of routing switchers represents a revolutionary new
approach to digital
1
signal distribution that builds on the success of
Venus—the best selling routing switcher ever. Trinix is a high-quality
and fully featured digital video routing switcher offering a large
number of crosspoints in one of the smallest physical frames available.
Four fixed frame sizes are available: a 128 x 128 router in eight rack
units, a 128 x 256 router in 12 RUs, a 256 x 256 router in 15 RUs, and a
512 x 512 router in 32 RUs. Fixed frame designs offer optimal solutions
for customers who have minimum space requirements yet still need a
large number of crosspoints. Features of the Trinix routing switcher
architecture include:
• Fourth generation based on Venus
• Standard Definition (SD) and High Definition (HD) in the same
frame
• Easy to upgrade
• High density in minimal space
• Each I/O card supports 32 signals
• Same “crosspoint bus” control as Venus, providing easy integration
with Jupiter Facility Control Systems.
• Mission critical components are front loading and hot swappable
• Extensive alarm notification/status
• Load sharing power supplies
• Redundant fans
• Protected path operation
• Broadlinx option combines network interface, sync input, and
output monitor circuitry; allows LAN-based control by Encore/
SMS and system monitoring via Microsoft Internet Explorer.
SNMP/NetCentral system monitoring also available
• Passive expanders for input/output expansion, dual/quad outputs
• Chassis design maximizes air flow

The new VI-33100 module provides analog as well as digital inputs.
