Rear Panel Connections

C

Use Electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions (be electrically grounded)
when making connections. Electrostatic discharge can damage equipment,
even if you cannot feel, see, or hear it.

C

Remove system power before making all connections.

Video input and output (video switchers)

N

The switchers do not alter the video signal in any way. The signal output by the

switcher is in the same format as the input.

RGBHV (CrossPoint switchers)

The switcher can connect to up to as many as 32 (CrossPoint 450 Plus) or 16

(CrossPoint Ultra) RGBHV video sources, depending on the model. The switcher

can output to as many as 32 or 16 RGBHV video devices, depending on the model.

N

On all CrossPoint 450 Plus switchers and CrossPoint Ultra matrix sizes of

8 x 16 and larger, the connectors for each video plane are grouped together (all
of the red inputs grouped together, all of the green inputs grouped, and so on).
Ensure that you connect the input on each video plane to the corresponding
connector in the correct group (see figure 2-12).

N

Both CrossPoint models can also switch RGBS, RGsB, RsGsBs, component

video, S-video, or composite video by using four, three, two, or one BNC(s). If
switching a video format other than RGBHV, ensure that the same video planes
(R, G, B, H/HV, and/or V) are used on the switcher output as on the input.

a

Video inputs — Connect RGB video, component/HDTV video, S-video,

or composite video inputs, as applicable, to these BNC connectors for each

input. Figure 2-12 shows how to connect the RGB video format to each

configuration.

b

Video outputs — Connect RGB video, component/HDTV video, S-video,

or composite video displays, as applicable, or other devices to these BNC

connectors for each output. Figure 2-12 shows how to connect the RGB video

format to each configuration.
