Panacea™ Lite
12x1 Economical Utility Router
Panacea™ Lite offers mixed-format, broadcast-quality 12x1 utility routing — all within an affordable, compact 1RU frame.
Wide Range of Signal Formats
Featuring the widest format range in the industry in a 1RU frame, Panacea Lite is available as a dual-format analog video and audio, SDI video and AES, HD-SDI video and AES router for coverage of the countless utility applications. Panacea Lite is also offered in the following standalone formats: analog video, analog audio, SDI, or HD-SDI video.
Single/Dual-Format Within a 1RU Frame
Panacea Lite is one of the most compact 12x1 routers for utility routing applications available today. With a frame depth of only 5.25-in. (13 cm), Panacea Lite allows for either front- or rear-rack mounting. In addition, both video and audio are housed in the compact 1RU frame for maximum space efficiency.
Control is Tailored to Your Requirements
Panacea Lite allows you to select local and/or remote control panels with standard breakaway operation. If rear rack mounting is desired, Panacea Lite lets you tailor your remote control applications by offering XY remote control as standard. This allows you the freedom of remote panel distances up to 2000 ft (615 m). Multiple routers can be linked together for multi-level switching, and because a common Harris control system is incorporated, Panacea Lite can be easily integrated into existing facilities. In addition, serial control is available with GPI.
Panacea Lite Fits Any Facility
Panacea Lite fits into any television production facility, cable facility, production or post production facility, outside broadcast vans/trucks, DBS satellite operation, Webcaster, or telco facility with ease.

Ordering Information
Model numbers must follow the following format:
P12X1y
Where y is replaced by the signal format as listed here (i.e. P12X1HS)
If a local control panel is required, add CP to the model number (i.e. P12X1HSCP)
| S | SDI, non-reclocking |
| HS | HD-SDI (wideband digital multi-rate), non-reclocking |
| AEB | AES/EBU balanced, digital audio |
| AEC | AES/EBU coaxial digital audio |
| A2 | Analog stereo audio |
| V | Analog video |
