Additionally, the testing proved that the Trinix NXT has superior signal transport capabilities at 3 Gb/s in that it exceeded most of the specifications. Input cable equalization for Trinix NXT exceeded the 140m spec. Jitter and return loss measurements measured at 3 Gb/s significantly outperformed the SMPTE specification.
As a 3 Gb/s infrastructure becomes a "more sooner than later" requirement, it is wise to choose a routing switcher that is fully validated and truly capable to be your 3 Gb/s routing tool.
If you are an existing Trinix routing switcher owner, you can easily upgrade to the new 3 Gb/s circuit boards—and do so within the parameters of your existing wiring.

The fully protected paths option of the Trinix NXT platform protects all circuit paths in the router—all the way back to redundant sources if you use them (see below). A failure in any circuit board or in the signal-source chain triggers an automatic failover. As the most cost-effective way to protect your most important signal paths, this option uses the Trinix NXT system's passive port expander tools—the same splitting and combining circuits used in expanded systems. These tools offer maximum reliability at no added power cost and can be implemented in single- or dual-router configurations.
