The EQX family has many I/O options as well a number of frame sizes to fit your needs. The 10RU frame supports 180x180 or 180x360 using double-density outputs (plus X-LINK outputs). The half-sized 16RU frame supports 288x288 or 288x576 using double-density outputs (plus X-LINK outputs). The full-sized 26RU frame will support 576x576 or 576x1152 using double-density outputs (plus X-LINK outputs). The traditional EQX is a very compact solution, perfect for trucks, mobile applications or areas where space is a concern. We also offer multi-frame configurations for 1152x1152 and larger systems, square and rectangular sizes. The multi-frame systems can provide a full path redundancy within and between the frames. There are many I/O options including audio embedding and de-embedding available on all I/O at the same time, plus external discrete audio with our integrated EMR-AUDIO routing - that's over 30K x 30K unblocking audio routing.

EQX-IO Feature Overview

Next Generation EQX Input & Output UHD Capable Modules

Next generation EQX Input & Output will support your existing 3G AVIP/AVOP processing workflows and prepare your new and existing EQX router for the future. Support for single-wire 12G-SDI, Video Over IP connection to Evertz and COTS IP cores using industry standards like SMPTE ST 2110, and for cloud applications using JPEG XS.

EQX-IP18AD is an 18-port input card with audio de-embedders and license keys to enable IP gateway functionality for 10/25/100GbE, 18x independent frame sync paths, UHD and additional other processing capabilities. The HD-BNC rear plate is included, QSFP modules for IP connections are sold separately.

EQX-OP18AE is an 18-port output module with audio embedders and license keys to enable IP gateway functionality for 10/25/100GbE, 18x independent frame sync paths, UHD and additional other processing capabilities. The HD-BNC rear plate is included, QSFP modules for IP connections are sold separately.

EQX Output Module

EQX-OP36-3G1 is an EQX output module comprised of 36x reclocked output channels fed from the crosspoint modules. Each output has the ability to enable or disable reclocking and can be switched into ASI bypass mode as required. EQX-OP36-3G1 supports 36x digital video outputs using standard DIN 1.0/2.3 connectors mounted on the passive rear plate.

EQX Input & Output Gateway Module

EQX-IP18-IPG is an 18-channel hybrid EQX input module that provides existing or new EQX routers with the ability to bridge to the IP world. This IP gateway module is fully-featured with the ability to encapsulate and de-encapsulate video signals over IP. Eighteen inputs to the router can be selected from either baseband inputs or 10GbE IP sources, and each input has a frame sync designed to re-time the input video signal to the EQX frame reference signal. The EQX-IP18-IPG can also de-embed audio from the selected 18x input video signals for packetized TDM audio routing.

EQX-OP18-IPG is an 18-channel hybrid EQX output module which provides a gateway to IP infrastructures. Featuring 18x video channels for both IP encapsulation and SDI output, all outputs have a frame sync designed to re-time the output video signal to the EQX frame reference signal. EQX-OP18-IPG includes audio embedders that can seamlessly mix in packetized TDM audio from Evertz EMR-AUDIO routers.

EQX Input Module

EQX-IP18FSAD-3G is an 18-channel EQX input module with built-in standard video frame sync and audio de-embedding capabilities, with an option to add audio re-embedding capabilities. This module is designed to re-time a SMPTE ST 292M or SMPTE ST 259M input to a local reference signal. When necessary, frames are repeated or dropped to maintain synchronization. This module has the ability to loop back the 18x synced inputs to 18x outputs when the coax rear plate is in use.

EQX Input & Output 4GB Modules

EQX-IP18-4GB is an EQX input module comprised of 4x 12G-SDI or 18x 3G-SDI channels of adaptive cable equalization which feed the incoming signal directly through to the crosspoint modules. This module has been designed to work with all existing and new 3G EQX routers. It can accommodate 4K/UHD signals over a single 12G-SDI interface (fiber or coax) that will translate into four consecutive 2sI 3G-SDI input streams to be freely routed within the 3G router core and sent to standard 3G VIPs over X-LINK.

EQX-OP18-4GB is an EQX output module comprised of 4x 12G-SDI or 18x 3G-SDI reclocked output channels fed from the crosspoint modules of the router. This module can gearbox 4x 3G signals in to a single 12G-SDI 2SI output over coax or fiber to provide greater density and longer distance.

EQX Output Module

EQX-(GX)-OP18(H)-(3G) is an EQX output module comprised of 18x reclocked outputs fed from the crosspoint modules.

EQX Audio Video Input Processor Module (AVIP)

EQX-IP16AD-3G-2TDM is an EQX input module that consists of 16x channels of adaptive cable equalization which feed incoming signals directly through to the crosspoint modules. This module also de-embeds the audio from all 16x inputs and multiplexes them onto 2x TDM streams. Either TDM stream can be used as primary or redundant since they are identical. Each AVIP supports 16x digital video inputs plus 2x TDM output streams via industry-standard BNC connectors mounted on the rear plate.

EQX Audio Video Output Processor Module (AVOP)

EQX-OP16AE-3G-2TDM is an EQX output module that consists of 16x reclocked output channels fed from the crosspoint modules. This module also de-multiplexes audio from TDM input streams and re-embeds them onto video. Each AVOP supports 16x digital video outputs plus 2x TDM input streams via industry-standard BNC connectors mounted on rear plate.

EQX Input Module

EQX-(G)-IP18(H)-(3G) is an 18-channel EQX input module with adaptive cable equalization which feeds incoming signals directly through to the crosspoint modules.
