  • Automated path-finding and integrated bandwidth management for hybrid video routing connections
    Patent number: 9973423
    Abstract: Automated path-finding and integrated bandwidth management for hybrid video routing connections are disclosed. When a video source signal is to be routed to a video router from a remote video router, a control system automatically determines whether the video source signal is routable to the video router from the remote video router over a hybrid connection that includes connection segments of different types. The video source signal is routed to the video router from the remote video router through the hybrid connection if the video source signal is routable to the video router from the remote video router over a hybrid connection. In an embodiment, a single user interface allows a user to request routing of video source signals.
