Trinix NXT Digital Video Routing Switcher
We Set the Standard

Superior Signal Performance, Uncompromising Reliability

With more than 30% lower operating costs, powerful performance, and simplicity, Trinix® NXT is field-proven in configurations up to 2,048 inputs or outputs, with over 60 million crosspoints installed worldwide. Forward thinking design, scalability, and long-term support, the Trinix platform is a solid investment for today and for the future.

Increase productivity: The Trinix NXT routing switcher architecture keeps the signal path as simple as possible, while incorporating advanced circuit technology, so you'll spend less time troubleshooting and be able to switch hundreds of crosspoint switches, even under a heavy load.

Eliminate points of failure: With Trinix NXT, you'll have industry-leading low-power consumption levels. And with a better cooling system, signal performance won't be compromised.

Expand your view: The Trinix NXT Multiviewer optimizes space by eliminating secondary external components and connections that consume valuable rack space. Without the need for additional cabling and other hardware, you'll have a reliable 3G multiviewer solution.

Augment redundancy: With the advanced protection of the Trinix NXT routing switcher, you'll have enhanced signal protection with three different redundancy options for unprecedented flexibility and path protection.

Available as an option, the Trinix NXT Multiviewer is a fully integrated, internal component of the Trinix NXT routing switcher and represents a unique, next-generation approach to live event broadcast and production multiviewer solutions in 3G. It optimizes space by eliminating secondary external components and connections that consume valuable rack space, as well as the need for additional cabling and other hardware—all of which lead to a more reliable multiviewer.

Any existing Trinix chassis can be upgraded quickly and easily to support the Trinix Multiviewer solution. This includes every Trinix chassis sold since the product's introduction in 2001. No other manufacturer can make this claim.
