The Chameleon 256MB is a mid-range bandwidth modular switching system that supports 30MHz throughput and offers the largest matrix capacity of all Knox systems. Once you own the Chameleon chassis, simply pick and choose from the wide selection of audio and video cards to change the input-output capacity of your switcher. This card is designed specifically to manage Composite video, Y/C, Hi-Def Component video, and RGBHV. It features 64 inputs and 256 outputs. Take advantage of this dynamic system and a wide selection of card configurations to keep pace with changing requirements and ensure that your setup always meets your exact needs.
This card can easily be installed into your Chameleon unit by way of the hinged front panel on its 12U rackframe. Simply configure it in the available slot of your chassis to unlock its input-output capacity. Audio and video matrices in this series may be linked together via serial cable. Patterns assigned to this card are recorded in the Chameleon's non-volatile memory, ensuring that all current and stored data are backed up. For an extra layer of protection related to your card configuration, your Chameleon may also be equipped with an optional, redundant power supply.
Default configuration and control of this card and all matrices are primarily managed via the Chameleon's front panel or RS232. However, the unit may also be controlled via computer, remote keypad, or with the use of many third-party controllers. Command options include SALVO, batch, and event control, among others.
