S2561FX PCM TTL digital analog switching matrix system S2561F PCM TTL digital analog switching matrix system S2561F TTL PCM digital analog switching matrix system

System
S2561F(X)

Our new S2561FX & S2561F switching systems are a single-ended full featured non-blocking full fan-out matrix for routing both digital and analog signals with up to 256x256 I/O's in one unit, or up to 1024x1024 in multiple units. The new "F" and "FX" versions feature an integrated touchscreen that supplants the discontinued S2561E (keypad and display). The "F" version has a standard 4.3" display while the "FX" version has a beautiful 10.1" display with enhanced features.

Conceived to replace manual patch cord bays and multi-couplers, this unit is designed for switching both digital and analog signals. Signal such as IRIG-B, PCM, TTL, clock & data, IF-video, or other similar signal that might be found on a test range. Typically, the unit is married with "adapter panels" where user signals are connected. Adapter panels provide a whole extra level of flexibility for system expansion, keeping rack space usage to a minimum, and allows panels to be located separately from the switch (up to 60 feet away).

By design, the S2561FX can be easily configured to meet many needs, even as your needs change and evolve. The unit can be configured as small as a 32x32 matrix, to as large as a 256x256 matrix within the same box by simply sliding in modules. Either the input or output axis of the matrix can be configured independently in increments of 32 ports. Our technical staff can help configure the exact system for your specific application.

    Detailed Description

    Eliminating manual patch bays and cords, the System S2561F(X) is a high-density switch array specifically designed for routing both digital and analog signals such as IRIG-B, PCM, TTL, clock & data, 70MHz IF-video, or other similar signals between DC-125MHz.. Fully populated, this unit contains 256 input and 256 outputs where a given input can be connected to one, many or all 256 outputs (full fan-out non-blocking).

    The "F" and "FX" versions feature a front panel color touchscreen that supplant the discontinued S2561E (keypad and display).The 5RU rack mount unit accepts up to eight input cards and eight output cards at the rear with each I/O card having two (2) 68-position Dsub connectors. There are 16-channels per Dsub connector. These cards install at the rear of the unit with the connectors rear facing. All cards are secured to the unit with stainless hardware for rugged and trouble free operation. For less than fully populated configurations, filler plates complete the user configuration to keep the fan assisted cooling system working at top efficiency. To complete the Tri-Stage configuration, eight mid-stage cards are installed behind the hinged front panel.

    The front panel includes a color touchscreen display with user friendly menu driven operation. The "F" version has a 4.3" display while the "FX" includes a beautiful 10.1" display with additional X-Point control and display features. The display may be pass-code locked to prevent unintentional operation. The unit can be configured with one or two (full redundant) hot-swappable plug-in control CPUs. Each CPU includes an LXI 10/100 Ethernet port (with web browser), a USB 2.0 port, and a muli-serial port (RS-232C, RS-422A & RS-485). Self-monitoring hot-swap plug-in power supplies are standard with an independent and redundant design. The unit has independent dual AC power inputs designed for any international AC power source.
