Powerful switcher sits at the heart of IP Live and 4K and HD production operations
The XVS-8000 multi-format video switcher delivers massive benefits in terms of flexibility and operability for top end production, giving you the ability to realise a powerful mixed environment with SDI and IP. Utilising the flexible ICP-X7000 X-Panel assignable modular design, you can configure the control panel to suit your specific operations.The XVS-8000 provides you with a similar 4K production capability including DME as you get with HD. Not only supporting Networked Media Interface (NMI) but also supporting SMPTE ST 2110 places the switcher at the heart of the new generation IP Live production system. 100G IP interface boards fully support SMPTE ST 2110, and new 12G-based SDI interface boards increase flexibility even further by enabling IP/SDI hybrid operating environments. The advanced features and operational flexibility of the XVS-8000 make it Sony’s high-end production switcher offering ultimate quality combined with significant return on investment.
IP Live switcher
The core of the new generation IP Live production system supports not only Network Media Interface (NMI) but also the SMPTE ST 2110 Professional Media Over Managed IP Networks suite of standards, enabling a mixed IP and SDI production environment.
12G-SDI based live switcher
The XVS-8000 supports 12G-SDI interfaces functioning on-board format conversion for every incoming and outgoing video signal to offer greater options for applications such as in-house studios, OB vehicles and flypacks.
Powerful 4K switcher
4K production capability similar to HD production, with 5 M/E, 40 inputs, 12 assignable outputs for 4K and format converter outputs, plus up to 10 full keyers and 10 sub keyers, enabling simultaneous 4K and HD operation, and powerful 4K features.
4K 3D Digital Multi Effects (DME)
The newly developed 4K DME board offers up to 2 channels of floating 4K 3D DME capability for the XVS-8000. This 4K DME board can also be configured with the XVS-9000 switcher (up to 4 Ch), XVS-7000 switcher (up to 2 Ch), and the XVS-6000 switcher (1 Ch).
Evolutionary switcher controller
The XVS-8000 utilises the ICP-X7000 X-Panel for very flexible panel configuration with a modular style design, OLED display, RGB XPT buttons and LCD button pad. The button layout is also re-designed. The X-Panel has a flexible mounting style for flat or curved mounting, or even for splitting into two positions.
