Lassen Configurations & Sizes
Compact Broadcast Video & Audio Routing...
The Sierra Video Systems Lassen Family of video and audio routing switchers offer full-broadcast routing performance for space-constrained applications in both analog and digital formats. These small and mid-size switchers for Composite, Digital, & Strero Audio provide optimal performance and features in a wide variety of matrix sizes. The Lassen Family includes switchers from a compact 2RU 12x8 up to a mere 3RU 32x32 video & audio routing switcher. Our new routers are an ideal part of live-to-air and post-production facilities, remote trucks, and corporate, scientific, military and educational installations.

Features:

  • Adjustable Audio Gain & Attenuation on a per-channel basis
  • Interface capability to other SVS router frames
  • Built-in Front Panel Control
  • Small, compact designs
  • Convenient Phoenix style audio connectors
  • RS-232/422 serial control standard on all models
  • Interfaces with SCP line of advanced, programmable control panels
  • Analog Video / Stereo
  • Digital Video / Stereo
  • Digital Video / AES-EBU
  • Space-Saving Features
    The Lassen Family offers flexibility and adaptability to any application where saving space and economics are important. The Lassen VS/DE Series offers adjustable audio gain & attenuation on a per-channel basis, the ability to select from the SCP line of advanced, programmable control panels, and interface capability to other SVS router frames. The Lassen Family offers exceptional linear frequency response in critical, on-air switching environments.

    Lassen frames offers an internal power supply and have built in RS-232/ RS-422 control. The additional data port allows for complete control of the routing switcher via Ethernet or dial-up using the simple SVS Tahoe Control System. All Lassen models come standard with front panel control and can be linked to any of the SCP Family control panels for ultimate control of any sized broadcast system. The Lassen Family offers more control, a compact design, and flexibility in software management. Composite, digital and stereo audio routing has never been more compact and powerful.

    Format & Size Advantage
    The Lassen Family routing switchers offer Composite Video with Stereo Audio(VS) and 270Mbps Digital Video with AES/EBU(DE) or Stereo Audio(DS). These compact switchers accommodate two levels and complete control in compact frame sizes. We have fit 32 inputs and 32 outputs of video and audio into a desirable 3RU frame with BNC connectors and Phoenix style audio connectors for easy installation. The 12 Family and 16 Family are a mere 2RU. The Lassen Family offers state-of-the-art, frame accurate switching with an amazing size advantage for compact installations.

    Connect to Other SVS Routing Switchers
    Before the Lassen Family, it was impractical to connect our small RS-422 machine control routers to some of our smaller routers. The Lassen line makes that possible. In addition, the new Lassen routing switchers can be either a Master or a Slave in the control system. Meaning, you can add additional format levels to the Lassen control system, or your can add this routing switcher to an SVS router such as a Sierra PRO, Tahoe, Shasta, Yosemite, or Sequoia system.
