HDXP Plus 3232 |
32x32 Multi-Rate SDI Matrix Switcher |
60-797-01 |
The Extron HDXP Plus 3232 matrix switcher is capable of routing all SMPTE and ITU standard serial digital video signals. In addition, the HDXP Plus 3232 will pass embedded audio, as well as ancillary ID and metadata information, along with the digital video signal. It is ideal for routing HDTV and other high resolution serial digital video sources for digital cinema projection, biomedical imaging, satellite mapping and visualization, rental and staging environments, and other applications.
Zero-Skew Design
The HDXP Plus Series utilizes a unique, zero-skew design that's optimized for the switching of SMPTE 372M dual-link HD-SDI digital video signals. Adjacent pairs of input and output connectors share equal data paths, ensuring that dual-link signals are switched without undesirable timing errors. Incoming signals are equalized to 300 feet (100 m) or more on Extron RG6 or equivalent cable.
HDXP Plus matrix switchers automatically adapt to the input signal rate, and the output is automatically reclocked to the rate of the signal routed to it. Reclocked signals can be driven 300 feet (100 m) or more on Extron RG6 or equivalent cable. In addition to automatic reclocking, users can also disable reclocking, on a per output basis, or preset output reclocking to a fixed rate. This ensures standards independence, now and in the future, with virtually any serial digital video data rate.
Switching Modes
The HDXP Plus Series features two discrete switching modes for ease-of-operation. Matrix Switching Mode provides for selection of any input to any or all outputs. Preview Mode allows any selected input to be routed to a separate, dedicated preview output. The preview output is in addition to the available program outputs, and eliminates the possibility of preview signals being inadvertently routed to a live program output during a presentation.
Control Features
The HDXP Plus Series is engineered with a range of innovative Extron control features designed to simplify operation in critical presentation environments.
Key features include I/O grouping, which allows SDI and HD-SDI inputs and outputs of different data rates to be grouped together, thus eliminating the chance that an input of one data rate will be switched to an output requiring a different rate. The HDXP Plus 3232 expands I/O grouping by including the appropriate sync reference signal, bi-level for SDI and tri-level for HD-SDI, with the video I/O group.
Extron's DSVP¢â - Digital Sync Validation Processing provides verification of both input data rates and reclocked output data rates through RS-232 as well as the integrated IP Link¢ç Ethernet port. DSVP adds a level of confidence when designing a multi-rate digital video routing system with a variety of input and output digital signal types.
IP Link¢ç Ethernet Control
The HDXP Plus Series is equipped with Extron's IP Link¢ç, an IP integration technology. IP Link provides technical administrators with the ability to view embedded Web pages and control, manage, and troubleshoot the switcher from any authorized LAN, WAN, or Web client.

- User-selectable reclocking modes
— The HDXP Plus Series automatically reclocks SMPTE and ITU standard serial digital video rates. Reclockers can also be set to a single, predetermined SMPTE/ITU standard data rate for optimum switching performance, or bypassed to allow for switching nonstandard data rates.
- DSVP¢â - Digital Sync Validation Processing
— Polls inputs and outputs to verify data rates. DSVP then transmits the information to the user through the serial or IP Link ports.
- Input preview mode with dedicated output
— Provides preview of any available input signal before switching to a live output. All program outputs remain available for signal distribution.
- Video genlock
— Separate bi-level and tri-level references are provided for correct vertical interval switch timing for SDI and HD-SDI signals.
- 32 global presets
— Frequently used I/O configurations may be saved and recalled either from the front panel, IP Link, or serial control.

— Users can easily view which inputs and outputs are actively connected.
- I/O grouping
— Allows SDI and HD-SDI I/Os to be grouped separately, along with the appropriate sync reference signal.
- Tri-color, backlit buttons can be custom labeled for easy identification
— Buttons illuminate red, green, or amber, depending on function, for ease of use in low-light environments.
- QS-FPC¢â - QuickSwitch Front Panel Controller
— Provides a discrete button for each input and output, allowing for simple, intuitive operation.
- IP Link¢ç Ethernet control
— Engineered to meet the needs of professional A/V environments, IP Link enables the HDXP Plus matrix switchers to be proactively monitored and managed over a LAN, WAN, or the Internet, using standard TCP/IP protocols. IP Link provides for remote selection of input and output ties, output reclocking mode, and advanced system diagnostics.
- IP Link enhanced diagnostics
— Provides for monitoring of internal product operating temperature and power supply voltages, e-mail notification of input signal loss, and other critical service information.
- RS-232 and RS-422 control port
— Using serial commands, the HDXP Plus Series can be controlled and configured via the included Windows-based control software, or integrated into a control system. Extron products use the SIS¢â - Simple Instruction Set command protocol, a set of basic ASCII code commands that allow for quick and easy programming. The RS-232 and RS-422 port also makes it easy to install firmware updates.
