The IL6000 chassis features an advanced design combining modular-based transport functionalities with internal routing capabilities for video and Ethernet traffic. By eliminating external cross connects while staying in native video or Ethernet format, the IL6000 streamlines routing and rerouting of video and Ethernet traffic, reducing operational expenses, and providing an ideal solution for remote sites where immediate and timely reconfiguration is required via EMS or NMS.

It’s simplicity of design, flexibility, and ease-of-use make InfinityLink an ideal solution for use by broadcasters, networks, studios, and other organizations for their critical contribution feeds of major sporting, news, and live events, and other applications where advanced switching and management are a requirement and cost and space a concern.
