Sierra PRO XL Family Overview
Introduction
The Sierra PRO XL Family of component analog routing switchers offers high-bandwidth 3, 4, or
5 channel (RGB + HV) and stereo audio (S) matrix routing capability in a series of compact
frames. Sierra PRO was designed specifically for presentation environments such as corporate
boardrooms, live staging events, churches, and
universities.
This manual covers only the 12x8, 12x4, 8x8, and 8x4
Sierra PRO routing switchers. These robust routers offer
RGB/HV and Stereo Audio in the same, compact frame.
Moreover, these durable frames can be populated from
one to five video and pulse sync channels. They have
been engineered for high bandwidth with very low
crosstalk. Many other features include audio gain
adjustment for Inputs and Outputs through standard front
control panels or via a control serial port and optional
redundancy. The Sierra PRO system accommodates
balanced or un-balanced audio, AFV, or breakaway split
routing allowing RGB muting for seamless performance to projectors and displays. This family of
SVS routing switchers is optimized for multiple signal type control within the same frame.
Composite, S-video, YC, YUV, RGBHV, analog HD, and audio are easily control with one small
Sierra PRO frame. Sierra PRO’s 450MHz bandwidth supports most high-resolution sources.
The Sierra PRO models also feature a user-friendly, color-coded (RGB) rear panel layout for easy
installation, and their own unique motherboard configuration options. Frames also come with
standard front local control panel, serial control via an RS-232/422 serial interface, and an RJ-45
Ethernet port, with up to five simultaneous users, that is supported by SVS software and by all
major third-party control systems. An extensive line of existing XY or single-bus remote control
panels is also available.
