EDGE
Router Protocol Translator
Today, many broadcast facility system designs require interoperability among router systems from different manufacturers. End users often favor one manufacturer's control system over another and are simply looking to expand current routing capabilities.
EDGE is a 1RU router protocol translator that acts as a bridge between Harris XY router protocols and other third-party router control and monitoring protocols. EDGE is distinguished from existing Harris serial protocol translators (SPT) in that it can support third-party TCP/IP protocols, as well as serial protocols. Many system designs require Harris router control panels to control third-party routers or for Harris routers to be controlled by third-party router control panels. EDGE can be configured to meet the needs of both of these applications.
EDGE also acts as an SNMP agent for Harris routing systems. Any Harris router can be mapped to an SNMP-based monitoring and control system.
Features
Control Flexibility
