PESA Releases Tiger FUSION 12G SDI/IP Video Distribution System

Tiger FUSION’s highest-density frame simplifies even the largest 4K installations.

Tiger FUSION 12G SDI/IP video distribution system accomplishes three main objectives. First, it’s the largest single-link 4K matrix in the world. Second, its single-link 12G design reduces cabling and simplifies management. Third, it can accommodate a hybrid mix of SDI (1.5G, 3G, 6G, and 12G), HDMI (1.4, 2.0), and IP (SMPTE ST 2110) inputs and outputs within one high-density, 18RU frame.

“Tiger FUSION meets the need for simplified management of large 4K installations via single-link 12G SDI,” said PESA Chief Technology Officer Scott Barella. “With our flexible, signal-agnostic control system, Tiger FUSION enables hybrid workspaces utilizing SMPTE ST 2110 IP gateways and HDMI 2.0.”

Tiger FUSION extends the PESA portfolio of legendary video distribution systems, such as Cheetah, Cougar, Jaguar, and Ocelot. With current 12G routing matrixes of up to 320 x 320, and room for future expansion, the company claims that Tiger FUSION is the highest-density single-link 12G SDI router for uncompressed 4Kp60 (4:4:4) video available on the market.

The Tiger FUSION is the ideal solution for 4K video distribution systems (VDS) for mission-critical command and control (C2) and briefing centers for military and government, bringing stunning 4K clarity to real-time situational awareness. In addition, the Tiger FUSION is an ideal solution for sports and entertainment venues such as stadiums and cruise ships, as well as postproduction houses that need and value high-resolution images.
