The AVS-815/HDA is an HD SD SDI video
switcher with Analog audio follow. This unit is a
wide band-width video/audio vertical interval
switcher designed for the video professional in
mind. It features compact modular design which
allows it to handle HD SD SDI video and analog
audio. The unit has sixteen channels of HD SD
video and stereo audio. Digital and analog
switching modules for both video and audio may
be mixed in any combination for complete system
flexibility. The inputs are non-looping and offer
outstanding return loss performance. For HD SD
digital applications, an optional analog monitoring
output is available for analog audio.
Audio and video break-away are selected by a
single switch on the front panel. Dual LED’s on the
source selection and follow switch indicate follow
or break-away. The AVS-815/HDA allows the user
to efficiently and economically route or delegate
multiple video and audio signals.
The analog audio inputs use standard 3-pin Weco
connectors. The Weco 3-pin connectors are fast
disconnect for ease of set-up.

The analog audio I/O features full transformer
isolation to eliminate the possibility of ground loop
interference. Switching is accomplished during the
vertical Interval by using the vertical sync derived
from the video at the output stage. In a similar
fashion, digital audio switching takes place during
the audio sample preamble. Up to 32 switchers
can be controlled by the computer software.
The AVS-815/HDA may be controlled by a serial
data feed of either RS-232 or RS-422/485
interface standards, selectable by a simple internal
DIP switch. A remote control panel is also
available which utilizes the common RJ-11
modular connector along with the RS-485 interface
standard. For automated system applications, an
optional GPI interface is available.
The serial communication protocol is compatible
with existing Link video and audio switchers and
remote control panels. For integration into existing
systems, the AVS-816/HDA can be preset to
respond to that instruction set as well.
