AJA Video Systems debuted the all-new KUMO 6464-12G, a high capacity 12G-SDI router that features 64x 12G-SDI inputs and 64x 12G-SDI outputs for high bandwidth, cost-effective signal routing. Targeted for a range of broadcast, production, post, and proAV environments, KUMO 6464-12G offers powerful scalability, workflow security, and increased bandwidth via 12G-SDI.
   

Redesigned for maximum reliability and performance, KUMO 6464-12G offers increased capacity for larger configurations while maintaining a compact 4RU height and slim profile, with support for 12G-SDI/6G-SDI/3G-SDI/1.5G-SDI/270Mb and DVB ASI, 64x 12G-SDI inputs, and 64x 12G-SDI outputs. Professionals can easily route and control video with embedded audio to/from BNC connections with auto reclocking of SDI rates. KUMO 6464-12G devices can be configured for ganged dual- and quad-port routing, so that users can easily combine multiple inputs and outputs for Dual Link, 4K, UltraHD, and 8K workflows, enabling seamless routing of uncompressed, compressed, or RAW 4K signals throughout a facility.

Following in the footsteps of all KUMO routers, KUMO 6464-12G provides the highest density 12G-SDI router in a compact, fanless design, with absolute silence for noise sensitive environments, such as studio control rooms, audio booths, and critical medical installations.

KUMO 6464-12G feature highlights include:

• Single cable support for 4K/UltraHD 12G-SDI routing in a compact 4RU profile.
• 64x 12G-BNC inputs and 64x 12G-BNC outputs.
