AJA launches new Kumo 12G-SDI router

AJA Video Systems has debuted the new Kumo 6464-12G, a high capacity 12G-SDI router that features 64 x 12G-SDI inputs and 64 x 12G-SDI outputs. Targeted for a range of broadcast, production, post, and proAV environments, Kumo 6464-12G offers powerful scalability, workflow security, and increased bandwidth via 12G-SDI.

Kumo 6464-12G offers increased capacity for larger configurations while maintaining a compact 4RU height and slim profile, with support for 12G-SDI/6G-SDI/3G-SDI/1.5G-SDI/270 Mb and DVB ASI, 64 x 12G-SDI inputs, and 64 x 12G-SDI outputs. Users can route and control video with embedded audio to/from BNC connections with auto reclocking of SDI rates. Kumo 6464-12G devices can be configured for ganged dual- and quad-port routing, so that users can combine multiple inputs and outputs for Dual Link, 4K, UltraHD, and 8K workflows, enabling seamless routing of uncompressed, compressed, or RAW 4K signals throughout a facility.

Following in the footsteps of all Kumo routers, Kumo 6464-12G provides the highest density 12G-SDI router in a compact, fanless design, with absolute silence for noise sensitive environments, such as studio control rooms, audio booths, and critical medical installations. It is compatible with and exceeds SMPTE specifications. Up to eight salvos can be configured and saved in each Kumo router, with the capability to configure, save, export, and import up to twenty presets in each Kumo router.

Kumo 6464-12G features also include: Embedded web server for remote control on a standard web-browser; Support for up to 32 AJA Kumo CP and CP2 control panels, direct connect or networked via ethernet; 1 x RS-422 DB9 with support for Grass Valley Native Protocol; USB port for initial network setup; Redundant power supply option.

Auto reclocking SDI rates: 270/1.483 Gbps/1.485 Gbps/2.967 Gbps/2.970 Gbps/5.934 Gbps/5.940 Gbps/11.868 Gbps/11.880 Gbps. Kumo 6464-12G is format agnostic (270 Mbps - 12 Gbps). It passes all SDI embedded ancillary data including audio and HDR signaling. Reference Input: analog color black (1V) or composite sync (2V or 4V) looping, non-terminating.

Accompanying the launch of Kumo 6464-12G is the Kumo v4.9 update that introduces support for the router and includes automatic cable length adjustment and reclocking for optimized performance. Initial network setup is supported via free AJA eMini-Setup v2.4 software for MacOS and v2.4.1 for Windows.

These updates simplify network configuration and firmware upgrades for all Kumo devices and AJA solutions like Helo Plus, ColorBox, and Mini-Converters. The latest Kumo v4.9 and AJA eMini-Setup v2.4 updates are available as free downloads from the AJA Support Page.
