The RU-VSX4 is the ideal choice in most applications where four video signals need to be switched to a single output. The RU-VSX4 has two rear panel-jacks for each of the four video bridging input stages. One jack is for the input signal; the other is a loop-through output of the source signal. If 75 Ω termination of the input signal is required, the terminator (provided) is plugged onto the LOOP OUT jack. The output video signal is 75 Ω back-terminated to provide unity gain into a 75 Ω terminated input.

The front-panel features 4 high-reliability keyboard style pushbuttons with LED indicators corresponding to each video input. The LED indicator shows which video source is active. If the button for an active source is pushed, all video sources are turned off until the next source selection.

A front panel LOCAL/REMOTE toggle switch activates either the front-panel buttons or a rear-panel connected remote control.

RACK-UP SERIES

RACK-UPs are the original 1/3 rack width 1RU rack-mountable modules for the A/V, recording and broadcast industries. Module functions include mixing, switching, pre-amplification, power amplification, distribution, gain control, equalization and more. Some RACK-UP modules are constructed in solid encapsulated durable industrial black plastic enclosures; MAX RACK-UPs are assembled using heavy duty extruded aluminum and steel panels. The rear panels feature clear bold white lettering for the terminal blocks and connectors. Reverse-printed front-panel polycarbonate laminates provide an attractive, durable finished appearance for rack-mounted or free-standing use.

Since RDL first originated 1/3 rack width modules, RACK-UPs have led the industry in economical, high-performance and cost-effective long life solutions in system designs. Multiple RACK-UP modules may be interconnected, or may be connected with other RDL modules to form all or part of an A/V system. Certain RACK-UP modules are often used free standing; all RACK-UPs may be rack mounted. A complete range of mounting options is available for systems comprised of multiple modules.

RACK-UP modules provide input, output and control connections through terminal blocks and connector (or both) according to common usage in professional installations. Front panels are equipped with connectors, user controls and LED metering, as appropriate.

Functions and features provided by RACK-UPs, since their introduction, are still available today. This continuity in product offering and support makes RACK-UP modules a preferred long-term resource for system design solutions. RACK-UP SERIES modules are designed and manufactured in the U.S.A.
