Hot-Swappable and Redundant:

All critical system components including power supplies, cooling fans and pluggable optics (SFP+) are hot-swappable.

Control, Diagnostics & Alarms:

CONTROL:
Key control features include, an advanced GUI which provides convenient user interface to the router from remote locations.

The GUI allows for easy and intuitive setup and control of the switching between source computer or video entities and user display destinations.

In addition, single video sources may be multi-cast or broadcast to desired destinations.

Additionally, macro presets may be created for saving and recalling commonly used input and output ties.

A dedicated preview output option provides a view of all available input signals before switching to a live output.

The VX 160 is controlled via a dedicated external Linux CPU (pc) module (which can be provided via Thinklogical or the end-user). This allows for customization as well as ease of control and administration with access provided via a network connection, or a serial port for 3rd party controller integration (such as Crestron, AMX or home-spun interfaces).

DIAGNOSTICS & ALARMS:
Extensive real-time monitoring and diagnostics of the internal operating temperature, power supply voltages, I/O fiber links, fans, and other critical functions of the router.

LED indicators provide active and fault monitoring, while the system alarms can be configured to trigger an
external control system, or generate e-mail notiifications.
