Datavideo's SE-900 8 input SD switcher has an expandable core feature set that includes input chromakey cards and accessories. This two piece switcher (control panel and rack mounted processor) is ideal for SD venues.

The switcher accepts a mix of 8 input cards for DV, SDI, DVI, YUV and Composite. Outputs include DV, SDI, Composite, Component and S-video. Each input has a frame synchronizer and TBC. Preview functions include a YUV/Composite multi-image output with "next source" and "next effect" so you can see how it looks before your audience does. The SE-900 caters to the DV and SDI formats by including an audio delay for DV, and an optional audio embedder for the SDI stream.

The SE-900 is sold as a stand alone, 2-piece switcher with monitors, monitor racks and cases, or as part of mobile studio packages. It is available preconfigured for different inputs. See SE-900 Kits below.
