The VX8500 4x4HB is a high performance audio/video routing switcher in a thin profile 2RU rackmount chassis. It accepts and routes almost any 1 volt Composite, Y/C, or Component video input including off-the-air and non-timebase corrected signals.

The VX8500 4x4HB accepts and routes mono or stereo unbalanced audio up to 2 volts p-p or balanced stereo audio from 0 to +18 dbm. Video and audio inputs can be routed independently; they need not have the same destination.

Each source may be routed to multiple destinations via easy-to-use front panel push buttons or via RS232 interface. Front panel LED's indicate current routed crosspoints.

Battery backed-up memory stores up to four preset patterns. An internal timer allows timed sequence of patterns.

Housed in a super thin profile package, the VX8500 4x4HB is one of the VX8500 family of full matrix routing switchers. Also shown are the VX8500 16x16HB, and VX8500 8x8HB.
