Compact SDI Routers

KUMO compact SDI routers are small and cost-effective, yet robust and reliable. KUMO supports full broadcast specifications over SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G SDI. KUMO routers are a perfect fit for any broadcast, production, or post production environment. Running Embedded Linux, KUMO routers are network ready and support powerful HTTP control and monitoring. KUMO's internal webserver allows immediate installation, configuration, and operation with standard web browsers - without any additional software to buy or install. An optional 1RU networkable control panel (KUMO CP) can be used in stand-alone or networked configurations.

KUMO SDI routers are available in two configurations: the KUMO 1604 supporting sixteen SDI inputs and four outputs, and the KUMO 1616 supporting sixteen channels in and out. Because of their compact 1RU size, KUMO SDI routers are ideal for space-sensitive applications such as mobile sports trucks, edit suites, corporate video installations, or live theatrical A/V rigs. KUMO compact SDI routers offer AJA-reliability, flexibility and state-of-the-art signal quality, while delivering it for an unprecedented price.

Simple Installation and Configuration-and Easily Scalable

Installation of KUMO Compact routers is easy: with Bonjour, network configuration is automatic-just connect KUMO to your network or a computer. Alternatively, standard network configuration is also easy-just connect KUMO to your network, or a computer, and access 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.

For a stand-alone configuration of a KUMO router with a KUMO CP control panel, just connect the two KUMO components together with a standard RJ45 cable; no web browser or computer is needed.
