In its own class of production switchers, the Carbonite Ultra 60 empowers media groups looking to run larger, more complex, and more demanding productions without spending a substantial amount of money on one of the largest switchers on the market.

In addition, the new modular design of the Carbonite Ultra 60, combined with the fact that it is based on a software-defined hardware platform, makes upgrading from HD to UHD easier and even more affordable for customers.

‘When we launched the first edition of Carbonite at NAB 12 years ago, we introduced a new class of production switchers that exceeded the capabilities of many products twice their size and price’, said Nigel Spratling, vice president of production switchers and servers Video at Ross Video.

‘Since then we have continued to develop the Carbonite product range to the point where the Carbonite Ultra has become the most popular mid-size production switcher on the market. With the announcement of the Carbonite Ultra 60, we have taken another big step forward in our production switcher offering with the biggest, fastest and most powerful Carbonite to date’.
