Cobalt® Digital, an industry-leading designer and manufacturer of award-winning edge devices for live video production and master control, and a founding partner in the openGear® initiative has announced the launch of its 9905-MPx 3G/HD/SD Quad-Path Up/Down/Cross Converter/Frame Sync, a next-generation advanced scaler/frame synchronizer for the openGear platform.

The M-SAFESWITCH-2 has been designed to keep broadcasters on air, whether they are working in IP or SDI or a mixture of both. With its two independent 2 x 1 switches, the M-SAFESWITCH-2 is Crystal Vision's first dual channel routing switch and helps broadcasters save money by being 37% cheaper per channel than the company's original fail-safe switch. Supporting the SMPTE ST 2022 and ST 2110 IP protocols as well as SDI, it is ideal for planned maintenance switches to manually re-route a good signal around broken equipment, or for use as a very sophisticated auto changeover switch with the option of selecting from ten different fault conditions to automatically trigger the switch. The M-SAFESWITCH-2 is a clean switch and will ensure there is no disruption to the output picture when a switch takes place, using its framestore synchronisers plus the ability to delay the earliest arriving input by up to ten frames to correct any timing differences between the inputs. The M-SAFESWITCH-2 is a software app that runs on the MARBLE-V1 media processor hardware, a card which features a powerful CPU/GPU processor and both SDI and 10GbE IP network interface connections and which is housed in the Vision frame.
