Introduction
The Logical Solution
The HDX80 and HDX576 routers are high performance SDI routers and are non-blocking matrix
switches for complete, end-to-end routing of SDI signals over multi-mode or single-mode fiber
optic cable. These highly reliable and resilient routers are expandable from (HDX80) 5x5 up to
80x80 and (HDX576160) 16x16 up to 576x576 which allows for flexible deployment
configurations.
The HDX Routers from Thinklogical™ includes:
• Redundant, Current Sharing Power Supply Modules
• Redundant Controller Cards
• Single Fan Tray (includes three fans)
Optional Modules (Spares):
HDX 576 Matrix Router Data Input/Output Card, 16 Ports, SFP+
HDX 576 Matrix Router Controller
HDX 576 Matrix Router Fan Tray
HDX576 Matrix Router Sync Card
HDX576 Power Module

HDX 80 Matrix Router Data Input/Output Card, 5 Ports, SFP+
HDX 80 Matrix Router Controller
HDX 80 Matrix Router Sync Card

HDX 80 Power Module
The HDX80 and HDX576 Video Routers are available with LC-type fiber connectors.
Revision A December 2011 1
See Appendix A for the complete line of the Thinklogical HDX Routers.
Warning! The HDX Routers are a Class 1 LASER product that emits near
infrared light. Do not look directly into the fibers or the fiber optic ports.
Revision A December 2011 2
Theory of Operation
Thinklogical HDX Routers can be used together as a system with our Thinklogical SDI Xtreme
3G+ extenders using standard SFP optics. The modular approach of the HDX routers allows all
critical components to be hot swappable including power supplies, cooling fans, and pluggable
optics (SFP+). The hot-swappable I/O boards also provide expansion capabilities in steps of 5
(HDX80) or 16 (HDX576), allowing the HDX routers to be reconfigured without interrupting
signal processing by powering down the router.
The HDX routers are configurable with any combination of multi mode, single mode and coaxial
I/O ports, which supports both short and long haul applications. Our modular design allows
reclocking at any input using coaxial pluggable modules. Our SDI Xtreme 3G+ products also
include a reclocking feature.
The HDX 576 also offers the option of operating two independent 288 x 288 matrixes that can
be utilized as a redundant system to eliminate down time. Two HDX 576 routers can also be
used to create a fully redundant 576 x 576 system that is controllable via one interface for
mission critical applications.

Revision A December 2011 8
The HDX576 Video Router ships configured to customer specifications. All physical
connections to the product use industry-standard connectors.
HDX Modules
The inspired modular approach of the HDX80 and HDX576 allows for all critical system
components including power supplies, cooling fans and pluggable optics (SFP+) to be hotswappable, thus minimizing business impact in the unlikely event that a component should fail.
Power Supplies
The dual redundant power supplies ensure continuous, uninterrupted power. The supplies are
current sharing which means the supplies equally share the load. If a power supply were to fail,
a single power supply can withstand the entire current load of the HDX Router system.
Although the HDX Routers functions properly with one Power Module, it is recommended that
both Modules be used, preferably connected to two independent power sources (for
redundancy). Additionally, the hot-swappable feature allows for easy replacement of a module
(in case of failure) without interrupting the HDX Routers system functionality.
Fan Tray
The HDX Routers use 3 DC fans all located conveniently in one modular fan tray. The tray is
designed to move air horizontally through the enclosure. This hot-swappable fan tray allows for
easy replacement of the module (in case of failure) without interrupting the system functionality.
Any 2 DC fans will adequately cool either system.
The Fan Tray is also equipped with an Annunciator Port for the use of alarms. The system
alarms can be configured to trigger an external control system or generate SNMP Traps.

Controller Card
The hot-swappable Controller Card connects the Router to an external Linux or Windows CPU.
The serial port can also be used for 3rd party controller integration (such as Crestron, AMX or
home-spun interfaces). Also, the
Router via the LAN port.
If the HDX Router is to be controlled via ethernet, it will require a static IP address. This value
can be set via the DIP switch to the values listed below. The factory default setting will be

Figure 5: HDX Router DIP Switch Locations and Setting
The simplest network connection is an isolated network with only the HDX Router, the control
server, and any control clients using static IP addresses. The HDX Router can be set to any of
the above settings. The control server must be at 192.168.13.9, and the control clients could
then be set to any other addresses in the 192.168.13.X family.
If static IP addresses for the control server and its clients are not possible, then the control
server will require two (2) network interfaces with one interface set to the static address
192.168.13.9 and dedicated to the HDX Router(s) while the other network interface can be
configured as required by the facility's network administrator.
A Back-Up Controller Card is optional to ensure uninterrupted functionality if the Primary
Controller Card should fail or need to be replaced. The Primary Controller Card should always
be in the left or upper controller slot. This card must have a LAN connection that allows it to
communicate with both the Primary Controller and a server having an IP address of
192.168.13.9. Without this interface the back-up controller will never take control of the router.
The server should have the firewall turned off or be configured so that it is able to respond to
pings from the Primary and back-up controllers.
Revision A December 2011 11
Note: Removing the Primary Controller Card when it is Active will power down the
HDX Router and interrupt service. Refer to page 39 “How to Replace a Controller
Card”.
Note: When using a Back-up Controller configuration in a Secure Application with
Restrictive Switching, both controllers must have the same Restrictive Switching Table
files (see Appendix D: Secure Applications).
Sync Card
The hot-swappable Sync Card provides a Reference Input and loop output so that switch
connections can be made synchronously with an external reference or “House Sync”. All switch
connection timing complies with SMPTE RP 168 and with SMPTE 274M depending on signal
format. The Reference Input accepts any of the following signal formats:

Input/Output Cards
The hot-swappable Input/Output (I/O) cards provide excellent in-service expansion capabilities
in convenient sets of 5 ports per I/O card for the HDX80 or sets of 16 ports per I/O card for the
HDX320 and HDX576, thus allowing re-configuration without interrupting signal processing.
Each I/O card consists of one Transmit (T) and one Receive (R) optic per port. I/O Cards are
available with LC-type fiber connectors and can be assembled with Single-mode or Multi-mode
optics (SFP+). Each individual I/O Card lists the ports as 1 through 5 on the HDX80 and as 1
through 16 on the HDX320 and HDX576 Video. The Fan Tray module lists the port numbers
(all numbering is bottom to top, left to right. See figs. 10-12 on pg. 13). A LED located at the
top of each I/O card indicates when power is ON to that card.
The HDX80 Router configuration can have a minimum of one I/O Card. The HDX80 Router is
constructed with one fully non-blocking 80x80 switch matrix.. Each HDX80 I/O card contains 5
ports, so that when fully configured, the HDX80 will contain 16 I/O cards. The 16 I/O cards
provide a total of 80 Optical Input/Output connections (SFP+ T/R). The switching matrix
connects any optical input (SFP+ R) to any optical output (SFP+ T), even if it is the same Port
number (i.e. Port 1 R connected to Port 1 T).

Figure 6: Concept of HDX80 I/O Flows
The HDX320 Router configuration can have a minimum of one I/O Card. The HDX320 Router
is constructed with one fully non-blocking 320x320 switch matrix.. Each HDX320 I/O card
contains 16 ports, so that when fully configured, the HDX320 will contain 20 I/O cards. The 20
I/O cards provide a total of 320 Optical Input/Output connections (SFP+ T/R). The switching
matrix connects any optical input (SFP+ R) to any optical output (SFP+ T), even if it is the same
Port number (i.e. Port 1 R connected to Port 1 T).

The HDX576 Router configuration can have a minimum of one I/O Card. The HDX576 Router
is constructed with one fully non-blocking 576x576 switch matrix.. Each HDX576 I/O card
contains 16 ports, so that when fully configured, the HDX576 will contain 36 I/O cards. The 36
I/O cards provide a total of 576 Optical Input/Output connections (SFP+ T/R). The switching
matrix connects any optical input (SFP+ R) to any optical output (SFP+ T), even if it is the same
Port number (i.e. Port 1 R connected to Port 1 T).
