About Sony IXS-6600

A cutting-edge solution for diverse routing needs, the Sony IXS-6600 Integrated Routing System with 4RU Chassis is a sophisticated blend of technology and innovation. This high-tech system is capable of handling not only Standard Definition (SD) and High Definition (HD) video signals but also audio, RS-422A, and time code within a single, compact chassis. This multi-format capability offers significant space and cost-saving benefits, making it an ideal choice for facilities constrained by space.

The IXS-6600 Series routers come equipped with a common Ethernet interface, facilitating the establishment of a network-based control system that is both advanced and user-friendly. The inclusion of the well-established S-BUS interface ensures seamless integration into existing routing systems.

One of the standout features of this state-of-the-art routing system is its unique compatibility with Sony's MVS-8000G and DVS-9000 switchers. This integration offers numerous advantages such as bidirectional operational control, source name exchange, and tally management.

The Sony IXS-6600 Integrated Routing System supports a wide range of I/O modules and can handle HD-SDI and SD-SDI, AES/EBU, analog audio, RS-422A, and time code. Its video routing capability supports up to a 64 x 68 (IXS-6600) matrix, accommodating multiple bit-rate video signals ranging from 143 Mb/s to 1.485 Gb/s.

The system also features a re-clocking capability for multiple bit-rate signals, including DVB-ASI. The AES/EBU audio routing supports up to a 128 x 136 (IXS-6600) matrix using Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) techniques.

The Sony IXS-6600 can function as a primary station with enhanced control functions, eliminating the need for a separate external control unit. It offers powerful operational features such as Tie-line, Virtual matrix, Input/output system protection, and Phantoms.

The system boasts a high level of redundancy with a main and backup CPU board as standard, and redundant power supply units. It also features self-diagnostic functions that monitor communication quality, link status, and backup CPU status, detect mismatch of settings between main CPU and backup CPU, and cross point errors.

Ease of maintenance is another key feature of the Sony IXS-6600 Integrated Routing System. Troubleshooting and software upgrades can be performed without interrupting system operations, and it keeps a variety of logs such as System Status log and Command log. Ethernet-based remote monitoring and maintenance can be obtained using the Sony MMStation Remote Monitoring and Maintenance Software, an SNMP-compliant application.

In summary, the Sony IXS-6600 Integrated Routing System with 4RU Chassis is a smart, cost-effective solution that packs advanced features into a compact chassis, making it an ideal choice for a broad range of facilities.
