VikinX eMerge IP Media Routers is a series of next generation Ethernet/IP switches, specifically designed to aggregate, switch and forward IP media streams in a broadcast environment. Several switches can be interconnected via standard 10GigE/40GigE/100GigE connections, in order to form a fully non-blocking router cross point with a switching capacity that scales to several Terabits per second, comparable to a video routing core with thousands of HD-SDI inputs and outputs. VikinX eMerge can be deployed as a simple plug and play device for many broadcast applications. For more sophisticated networks, the products are equipped with a wide range of advanced Ethernet and IP features. VikinX eMerge is available in several variants with a different mix of GigE-, 10GigE-, 40GigE- and 100GigE ports. All products support standard Openflow operation as well as advanced Ethernet, IP and MPLS routing features.
