SIERRA PRO™ 8 SERIES ROUTING SWITCHERS

SIERRA PRO 84 SERIES

SERIES

8X4 YUV MATRIX SWITCHER

DESCRIPTION

The Sierra PRO 8 series are high bandwidth routing switchers for RGBHV, RGBS, RGB and
s-Video (Y/C) signals. These units come in a compact 3U (5.25”) frame and can route any
or all inputs to any or all outputs. They can be ordered in 5- channel (RGBHV), 4-channel
(RGBS), 3-channel (RGB/YUV) or 2-channel (Y/C) configurations, each with or without
balanced stereo audio.

Video Features - R/G/B Video Boards

High Bandwidth - 400MHz (- 3dB) fully loaded.
Very Low Crosstalk - 80dB @ 1MHz, - 47dB @ 100MHz, - 30dB @150MHz.
Matrix Mapping™ Universal Breakaway Switching - A unique and valuable benefit of Sierra Pro routing switchers. This feature allows the switching of

every level of every input of the routing switcher independently. Switch a single level or any combination of levels of the R, G, B, H, V, left audio and right
audio levels of any input. For example, input a composite video signal on the R level of input one and an s-Video (Y/C) signal on the G and B levels of
input one and switch only the composite video signal on the R level, switch only the s-Video Y and C signals on the G and B levels, or switch all three
levels together.

Room Grouping Capability - Several inputs may be grouped and operated independently of other input groups on the routing switchers. This allows one

routing switcher to be used for multiple “rooms” where the control system for each room will address only the inputs and outputs assigned to that room.

Video Follow Sync™ Switching - The H and V channels of an RGBHV signal are switched in advance of the RGB video channels of the signal to provide

clean, glitch-free switching between most non-synchronous sources.

Qwik Adjust Knob™ Rotary Control Interface - This user intuitive knob along with the 80 character LCD display provides quick and convenient setup,

adjustment and signal switching.

Video Mute Capability. -
Output Disconnect Feature. -

Sync Features - H/V Sync Boards

Sync Reporting - Through the G.R.I.P.TM control software, RS-232, or the front panel, the routing switcher can capture and report the input sync rates for

each input signal.

Input Detection - 200mv. Re-shapes and re-squares sync to output correct TTL level.
Selectable Termination - 510 or 75 Ohm (each input).
Genlock Input - Looping internal sync input for vertical interval switching.

Audio Features -

Audio Type -

Balanced or un-balanced stereo on terminal blocks.

Input (Level) Adjustment Capability (-10dB to +15dB) - Each input via RS-232, front panel, and G.R.I.P software.
Output (Volume) Adjustment Capability (Mute, -59.5dB to +15dB) - Each input via RS-232, front panel, and G.R.I.P software.
No Zipper Effect - Sierra Pro XL routing switchers employ zero crossover chip technology which eliminates the annoying “zipper sound effect” associated

with digital volume controls.

Audio Mute Capability. -
Crosstalk - Series 8 & 12: 80dB @ 1kHz, Series 16 & 32: 80dB @ 15kHz.
S/N Ratio (20 to 20kHz) - Series 8 & 12: 90dB, Series 16 & 32: 110dB.

Other Features -

Firmware Updates - Downloadable.
Control - Local front panel control with 80 character LCD readout.

RS-232/422.
RS-485 for optional control panels.
G.R.I.P: Windows® -

based routing switcher setup/diagnostic software.

Redundant Power Supplies - Optional (standard on all 32 x 32 and 32 x 16 models).
Approvals - UL & CE.
Control Panels (Optional) - Programmable, Single Bus and XY.
