DATAVIDEO SE-900 SWITCHER



SE-900 Switcher

8 Selectable Input Cards for SD Switching

 
The SE-900 is a two-piece eight input SD switcher with multiview output, designed for flexibility and ease-of-use. The SE-900 accepts any combination of up to eight input boards for DV, SDI, DVI,VGA, YUV, S-Video and composite video. Option cards include: 2 channel chromakey, external genlock and SDI output. The SE-900 is sold pre-configured as “kits” or without input and option cards. If you buy a unit without cards, two are required for a transition although the switcher can accept up to eight. If you purchase the cards at the same time as the switcher we will install and test them for you (no charge).

For more information on SE-900 option boards and pre-configured kits, please see below. You can have eight input cards of your choosing or you may begin with our pre-configured recommendations.*
