Sample Configuration
Here is a sample cabling configuration. It illustrates some of the issues often encountered during
system configuration. This example is for illustration only and is not in any way endorsed by
Miranda. The equipment described is theoretical and fictitious.
Equipment
You have 6 VTRs that play, and record, SD and AES 1/2.
You have 2 SD cameras and 1 HD camera and with the cameras are (pairs of) microphones that pro-
duce analog audio (stereo).
You have 6 DVD players that produce HD and AES 1/2, 3/4, and 5/6 as Dolby 5.1 output, and pro-
duce AES 7/8 as a stereo mix-down of the Dolby. (The DVDs do not record.)
You have 2 SD monitors and 1 HD monitor. You have analog audio speakers (6 set up for Dolby,
and 2 as stereo) and perhaps a set of VU meters.
You want to direct any video/audio source to any monitor or to any VTR.
How can it be done?
Analysis
Totals:
video in = 16, video out = 10
AES in = 32, AES out = 11 (6 AES 1/2 to the VTRs, 3 Dolby + 1 stereo to the D/A, 1 “DDD”)
AA in = 3 mic + 1 silence), AA out = 1 (mic out to AES mic in)
The system needs these routers:
CR1616-HD (handling both HD and SD)
CR3232-AES
CR1604-AA
