Compact 1RU Design for Space Efficiency
The KUMO 3232-R2 is housed in a compact 1RU chassis, allowing it to fit seamlessly into crowded rack-mount systems. Whether used in a broadcast control room, post-production suite, or mobile production unit, its small footprint makes it an ideal solution for high-density signal routing without taking up valuable rack space.
Network-Based Control for Easy Configuration
The KUMO 3232-R2 features network-based control, allowing users to manage the router from any network-connected device via a web-based interface. This intuitive system provides operators with full control over signal routing and configuration from a distance, making it ideal for remote production setups or studio environments. The router is also compatible with KUMO hardware control panels, offering tactile control for fast-paced live productions.
Redundant Power Supply Option for Mission-Critical Workflows
Designed for reliability, the KUMO 3232-R2 comes with a single power supply, but also offers a redundant power supply option to ensure continuous operation. This redundancy is essential for mission-critical workflows in live broadcasting or remote production, where power loss could result in critical downtime.
Auto-Detecting SDI Format for Seamless Integration
The KUMO 3232-R2 automatically detects the format of incoming SDI signals, allowing for seamless routing between different formats without manual intervention. This auto-detection feature simplifies workflows, ensuring smooth operation whether you're routing SD, HD, or 3G-SDI signals.
Low Power Consumption for Efficient Operation
The KUMO 3232-R2 is designed with low power consumption, making it a cost-effective and environmentally friendly choice for long-term use. Its energy-efficient design helps reduce operational costs, making it suitable for broadcast facilities and mobile production units where power efficiency is important.
GPI Integration for Automation
The KUMO 3232-R2 supports GPI (General Purpose Interface) triggers, enabling enhanced workflow automation. This integration is useful for connecting the router to other production equipment for automated signal routing and switching, making it ideal for live production environments where automation can streamline operations.
Front Panel Control with LED Status Indicators
The KUMO 3232-R2 features front panel control with easy-to-read LED indicators, providing real-time feedback on the status of inputs, outputs, and power. This allows operators to quickly make manual adjustments and monitor the system's operation, ensuring smooth signal routing during live broadcasts or studio productions.
Ideal Use Cases
The AJA KUMO 3232-R2 is perfect for broadcast professionals, live event producers, and post-production teams that need a reliable, high-capacity 32x32 SDI routing solution. Its compact design, 3G-SDI/HD-SDI support, redundant power supply option, and network control make it ideal for studio racks, OB vans, or portable production systems, providing flexible signal management for large-scale video production setups.
