Features of KUMO |
Compact routing
AJA KUMO compact SDI routers provide powerful signal control and support full broadcast specifications over SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G SDI, with quality that exceeds SMPTE specifications. The super-compact 1RU and 2RU formats are just a few inches deep, making them a
perfect fit for any broadcast, production, or post production environment, from mobile sports trucks and edit suites, through to corporate video installations or live theatrical A/V rigs.
AJA KUMO SDI routers are available in three configurations: KUMO 3232 supports 32 3G SDI inputs and outputs, KUMO 1616 supports 16 3G SDI inputs and outputs, and KUMO 1604 supporting 16 3G SDI inputs and 4 3G SDI outputs.
Powerful signal control Just 1RU or 2RU high and less than 2" deep, KUMO fits in the most space-constrained locations, offering flexible routing with support for SD, HD and 3G SDI I/O via BNC and SMPTE.
The powerful cross-point routing matrix allows the mapping of any input to any output. Signals can also be sent to multiple outputs without the need for additional patch panels or distribution amplifiers.
Broadcast-standard reliability
Designed for critical broadcast, production and post environments, KUMO hardware uses premium components coupled with dual redundant power supplies to ensure uptime in the unlikely event of a power supply failure.
Simple installation and configuration Running Embedded Linux, KUMO routers are network-ready and support powerful HTTP control and monitoring via a web browser - without the need for any additional software.
KUMO’s auto-detect Bonjour™/Zero conf protocols mean that network configuration is automatic, just connect KUMO to your network or a computer and the system will self-configure, ready for
use. Alternatively, standard network configuration allows access to each KUMO via its default IP address. Once connected to KUMO using a web browser, you can configure the full TCP/IP settings, select
and name KUMO routers, name sources and destinations, and perform all operational functions.
AJA KUMO routers are easily integrated with existing infrastructure utilizing the industry-standard Grass Valley Native Protocol over RS-422 or even Ethernet. Ethernet network connectivity also allows
you to control all KUMO routers from any web browser on a network-connected device, ensuring you have the control you need from any location.
KUMO Control Panel
KUMO CP is an optional 1RU control panel that can be used in standalone or networked configurations.
Connecting via Ethernet to the same network as the KUMO routers, KUMO CP enables full control from any location without the need for a computer. Up to four KUMO routers can be controlled from a single control panel.
For standalone configurations with KUMO CP, all KUMO hardware units can be connected together directly using standard RJ45 cables or a switch, if required. KUMO software automatically assigns routers to
control panel delegations so the system is ready for use immediately. |
