Pro-Bel and Miranda Technologies have announced a partnership that sees the integration of products from the two companies' ranges providing greater speed of deployment and an enhanced technological roadmap for customers.

Routers from across the Pro-Bel range - beginning with the globally renowned Sirius - and Miranda's Kaleido-X multi-image display processor are now offered as an integrated solution. This provides simplified connectivity - using a single multicore cable - and significantly enhanced control.

"We have an extensive history of control integration with Miranda and we have worked jointly on this project to bring these products together," said Alan Smith, product manager - Routing and Master Control, Pro-Bel. "For example, tally information from our control system can now be used seamlessly within Kaleido-X. With Morpheus Control and Monitoring - our overarching control and command technology - now reaching maturity, the level of integration will continue to increase."

Designed for multi-room environments, Kaleido-X offers unmatched multi-image display quality, while Pro-Bel's routers are known the world over for their flexibility and robustness.

Pro-Bel has also announced that it is now providing external fibre connectivity for its Cygnus range of large-scale 3Gig-Native HD Routers. This negates the cable length limitations that surround HD, providing far greater flexibility for multi-site installations and also OB units where fibre is popular.

Smith continued: "We are using a newly developed external fiber module that attaches directly to a BNC on the back of the frame. This allows increased flexibility for installation by not tying the user to fixed multiples of fibre I/O, and allowing the fibre to be distributed as required across the router. A bulk dual redundant power supply frame for the fibre modules ensures reliable 24/7 operation."
