Overview
Overview
The Blackmagic Design Smart Videohub CleanSwitch 12x12 is a compact 6G-SDI router with built in re-synchronizers on all inputs, allowing clean switching between all video sources of the same video standard. It can be used as 12 re-synchronizers for automatic re-timing of SDI feeds. Smart Videohub CleanSwitch supports 12 inputs and 12 outputs in virtually all SD, HD and Ultra HD video formats. Supports multiple formats on the same router at the same time and will clean switch between multiple formats that match the reference frame rate when the switching is between the same video standard. Includes front panel button and spin knob routing, elegant machined metal front panel with LCD for routing display and video monitoring and remote Ethernet control.
