Ross Video Releases Quad Split Video Processor

Iroquois, ON, Canada – January 14, 2010 – Ross Video announced today the release of the QSP-8229, a quad split video processor.

The QSP-8229 monitors up to four video inputs combined into a single quad split output with configurable quadrant labeling and bordering with transparency. The four configurable outputs can be assigned to be a quad output or a pass through of the input, with a full video proc, offering additional outputs for use elsewhere in a system.

“The QSP-8229 is an excellent, cost effective solution for monitoring up to four video inputs,” said Eric Goodmurphy, RossGear Product Marketing Manager. “With passive looping of the inputs signals the QSP easily fits into any video path.”

Unique to the QSP-8229 is the passive looping inputs, allowing it to fit into any video path without the need for additional DA’s reducing system complexity. Looping is performed on the back module ensuring the signal path is not lost even if the processor is removed.
