FOR-A FA-9600

This is an SNMP-based protocol for the FOR-A FA-9600. FA-9600 multipurpose signal processors offer essential features for emerging trends in video production. They are used in many professional settings. Each of the two HD/SD inputs incorporates a frame synchronizer, and because the signal processor features 12G-SDI terminals, optional software opens the door to 4K UHD production. Adding an optional expansion card provides four more channels of 3G-SDI input or output.

About

This connector was designed to work only with model FA-9600. It allows the user to monitor the state of the fans and power supplies. The status of the many inputs and outputs of this equipment, such as video, audio, or slot parameters, can also be monitored. SNMP Get commands are used to read information from the device.
