UT400 Utility Frame

The Utah-400 Series 2 Utility chassis is a 2 RU assembly, containing redundant AC power supplies which houses Series 2 routing switcher input and output cards to create point solutions for specific needs. The chassis installs into a standard 19” equipment rack and consumes 2RU (3.5”). A removable front cover allows access to the cards and their indicators.

The power supplies and Passive Crosspoint card are standard with the Utah-400 Series 2 Utility chassis, while the two pairs of input and output cards are user customizable depending on the intended function of the chassis. The power supplies are auto-switching 90-230VAC 50/60 HZ, and operate in a redundant configuration.

What Our Customers Have To Say About Us

“The UTAH-400 was a great choice for the upgrade. Not only does the router come with Utah Scientific’s no-fee, 10-year warranty — unheard of in the broadcast industry — but it’s based on a unique hybrid signal architecture that offers a single platform for all types of signals, including those used in IP networks.”
– Chuck Heffner, Digital Video Group
When making our purchase decision for a new plant router, the included 10-year support plan was a major factor that stood out among other manufacturers. We'd learned of the reputation of Utah Scientific equipment through colleagues and friends, and the opportunity to not pay for the equipment a second time through 10 years' worth of support contracts was a no-brainer. In the first five years, I've had nothing but great experiences when dealing with the support team at Utah Scientific. Whether I have a configuration question, a crazy "do you think this would work?" idea, or a bad fan, Mario, John, Dave, and Dave have always been knowledgeable, professional, and fun to work with.
