RL-740  Relay Card General Purpose Switching

Features

 

  • RL-740 - Suitable for general purpose switching and isolation.
  • TTL or direct relay switching.
  • Front panel LED status indicators

 

General

 

The RL-740 relay card is designed to interface with the IRT Eurocard VG-737 video and AG-738 audio program fail modules.
Front panel LED indicators are used to indicate the status of each relay circuit.
The RL-740 utility relay card is designed to provide two isolated contact sets and contains 5 DPST relays which can be controlled individually, both the make and break contacts are available either directly or by on board link selection.
One of the contact sets can also have the relay common contacts bussed to facilitate connection to the input circuit of the IRT 5x1 video and audio switchers.

When the relay is NOT ENERGISED relay 1 circuit switches input 1 to the output thus providing a secure path when power is not present on the module.
The relays used are bifurcated contact low energising current relays designed for long life and high reliability.
Note: For relay switching of video, data and HF, see the AVS-3170 relay switcher.

AVS-3170   Video, Data & IF 5 x 1 Relay Switcher

Features

  • Suitable for video, SDI, ASI, RF, ACS or high speed digital signals.
  • May be used for G.703 MPEG transport streams.
  • Economical switcher for 2, 8, 34 & 45 Mb/s data signals.
  • Termination impedance may be easily changed from 75Ω to 50Ω or open circuit.
  • Default path from source 1 on power fail.
  • Compatible with 3000 series switchers or wire per crosspoint control.

General

The AVS-3170 5 x 1 relay switcher for video and RF is a passive unbalanced circuit relay switcher.
The relays used are low capacitance reed relays wired to minimise crosstalk from the unused inputs and thus allow the switcher to be used with RF or video signals exceeding 140 MHz.
This also allows the switcher to be used for highspeed digital signals with minimal effect on the pulse risetime.
When used at very high data rates the small amount of high frequency attenuation may be corrected by following the switcher with a data distribution amplifier. This not only provides automatic equalisation, but also source isolation and multiple outputs.
Termination resistors for 75Ω signals are fitted as standard. These may be easily changed to 50Ω for RF signals or removed for switching TTL or other signals.

When the switcher is not powered, relay 1 circuit switches input 1 to the output thus providing a secure path during power failures.
The AVS-3170 5 x 1 relay switcher is designed to interface with other IRT Eurocard 3000 series switchers or with the VG-737 video and AG-738 audio program fail detectors.
The switcher may be fitted with a local control panel, type CPS-3050, or with a tally panel, type TPS-3010, for local path indication when the switcher is operated remotely.
The AVS-3170 is built to the IRT Eurocard format and may be mounted in any of IRT's standard Eurocard frames together with other Eurocard modules.

AMS-4171 Relay Video & Audio Switch

Applications:
  • One video and two balanced audio changeover switches in one package
  • Video path suitable for HDSDI (1.485Gb/s), SDI (270 Mb/s), analogue video, ASI data streams and G.703 @ 2, 8, 34, 45, 144, 155 Mb/s
  • Audio path suitable for 2 balanced, or 4 unbalanced, audio or data signals
  • Married or independent operation
  • Default path on power fail
  • Local or remote control
  • Optional plug-in SNMP monitoring and control module
  • Front panel LED status indicators

General

The AMS-4171 consists of one "video" and two "balanced audio" switches. Each switch is arranged as a changeover set with two inputs and two outputs. No terminations are provided on the board allowing the switcher to be used in a wide variety of applications and with signals of various types and impedances.
The "video" path uses enhanced performance relays to provide switching capabilities for high-speed data signals up to 1.485 Gb/s and may be used with analogue video, SDI, HDSDI, ASI or G.703 data signals.
The "audio" path may be used for balanced or unbalanced audio or control signals (RS232, RS422, RS485 etc).
The AMS-4171 is ideally suited to applications where a simple choice between two inputs or outputs is required and may be easily driven by audio, video or other detector circuits for automatic path selection

Front panel switches allow a choice of local or remote control operation.
Front panel LED indicators are used to indicate the status of each relay circuit.
Remote control is via a switch to ground connection, where video and audio may be operated independently or with audio following video by means of link settings.
An optional SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) plug-in module is available for remote monitoring and control when used in conjunction with IRT's 4000 series frame fitted with SNMP capability.
The AMS-4171 is designed to fit IRT's standard Eurocard frames as well as IRT's 4000 series frame for use with IRT's SNMP system and may be used alongside any other of IRT's analogue or digital Eurocards.

AMS-4370HD  HD, G.703, ASI, SDI, Video 4 Port Changeover Relay

Features

 

  • Signal path suitable for HD (1.4Gb/s), SDI , analogue
    video, ASI data streams and G703 signals @ 2, 8, 34, 45,
    144 Mb/s.
  • Momentary Set/Reset or HI/LO logic control.
  • No path change on power fail.
  • Local or remote control.
  • Front panel LED status indicators

General

The AMS-4370HD is a magnetic latching 4 port changeover switcher using enhanced performance relays which provide switching capabilities for high speed data signals up to 1.4 Gb/s. It is suitable for switching high definition video, ASI, SDI or G.703 data streams or analogue video signals, provided that they have characteristic impedances of 75Ω.
The AMS-4370HD is arranged as a changeover switch with two inputs and two outputs. No terminations are provided on the board allowing the switcher to be used in a wide variety of applications and with signals of various types and impedances.
The magnetic latching characteristic of the high performance relay allows momentary control and also provides for no change of path during power loss. Remote changeoverchangeover is by a momentary ground connection.The AMS-4370HD is ideally suited to applications where a simple choice between two inputs or outputs is required and may be easily driven by detector circuits for automatic path selection.
For best performance the outputs should be connected to inputs with automatic cable equalisation.
Remote indication of tally and local/remote status is provided for integration into central alarm and monitoring systems.
The AMS-4370HD relay card is built to the Eurocard format and will mount in an IRT 1RU or 4000 series 3RU frame.
