The D5PSW SDI Protection Switch from AJA is a device that accepts (2) SDI inputs (primary and secondary) and (3) SDI outputs. It automatically switches input sources if the primary source is not present or invalid.
An LED indicates the status of the input signals. It is green if both inputs are present, flashing green if only the primary is present, and orange if only the secondary input is present. It also features cable EQ to 1,000'.
This device offers a reliable method of automatically managing SDI input feeds in cases where signal integrity is a problem. It can also be used as a repeater or distribution amplifier.
