PESA’s Cheetah 144NE Fiber Router System is a high performance, modular fiber optic switch system for either ProAV or Broadcast HD-SDI and 3G-SDI applications. Cheetah 144NE Fiber is expandable in sizes from 36X36 up to 144X144 in the same 4RU frame. It is fully compatible with the new Vidblox Series of fiber media extenders for DVI, HD-SDI, and 3G-SDI. The frame supports redundant power, control, and a hot-swappable 144X144 Crosspoint matrix. I/O cards allow easy expansion in groups of 36 inputs or 36 outputs per card which simplifies future expansion without the need to replace cards or frames. The frame system is based on the field proven Cheetah line of routers and maintains the same high reliability always found in the PESA brand. The system’s integrated Matrix Frame Controller monitors the health of the unit and automatically recognizes any new I/O cards.
