Additional Monitoring Outputs
As stated in the above paragraphs, the “33 rd ” output on each sub-assembly is an additional output. The
Yosemite 64x64 system is actually a 64x66 and the 128x128 is actually a 128x132. Each of the “33 rd ”
outputs appears on the BNC connectors on the front of the output module assembly, rather than on the
rear of the frame.
The most common use of the 33 rd outputs is service monitoring. In the 64x64 system, the extra outputs
are mapped to outputs 65 and 66. These extra outputs must be addressed on the control processor to
function properly. For more 64x64 information and for 128x128 system functionality, please consult Sierra
Video.
Analog to Digital Upgrade Capability
A key feature of Yosemite Family Routing Switchers allows the same frame to be used for analog or
digital video routing.
An analog router can be changed to a digital system by replacing the analog modules with digital
modules. Because digital video requires more power, upgrading power supplies is also required. This
permits a system to be upgraded in the field from an analog system to a digital system.
Video / Audio Compatibility
All of the Yosemite video frames mentioned above are compatible with both Yosemite audio frames and
modules. Moreover, Yosemite can be interconnected to most other Sierra Video units, or RS-422 Port
routing switcher. For more information, on combining systems to include analog, digital, mono audio,
stereo audio, or any other format, please contact Sierra video.
