Triton Plus Ported RS-422 Data Routers

Product Overview

Professional broadcast installations often include a number of tape recorders and other devices that require RS-422 machine control for remote operation. To meet these requirements, Thomson Grass Valley introduces the Triton Plus TPS-D32P Ported Data Router.

Complex installations, cable cost and system design is kept at a minimum.

Where user friendliness and operational flexibility is appreciated, the TPS-D32P will fit in perfectly.

The Ported Data Routers are bi-directional ports rather than XY. A traditional 32x32 router will have a total of 64 connectors (32 in/32 out). A ported 32 Router will have a maximum of 32 connectors, all configurable to be operated either as Controller or Device.

In the TPS-D32P Ported Data Router the terms Controller and Device are used instead of In/Out, Source/Destination. I.e. a Ported Data Router Controller can be both signal Source or Destination.

All ports are coupled according to SMPTE-207M machine control standard.
