CrossPoint 450 Plus and MAV Plus Switchers • Installation 2-8
Rear Panel Connections
CAUTION Use Electrostatic discharge precautions (be electrically grounded) when
making connections. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage
equipment, even if you cannot feel, see, or hear it.
CAUTION Remove system power before making all connections.
Video input and output (video switchers)
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 450 Plus switchers only)
The switcher can connect to up to as many as 32 RGBHV video sources, depending
on the model. The switcher can output to as many as 32 RGBHV video devices,
depending on the model.
On CrossPoint 450 Plus 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 2-11).
The CrossPoint 450 Plus switchers 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.
1 Video inputs — Connect RGB video, component/HDTV video, S-video, or
composite video inputs, as applicable, to these BNC connectors for each input.
Figure 2-11 shows how to connect the RGB video format to each
configuration.
2 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 2-11 shows how to connect the RGB video
format to each configuration.
