Panasonic Connect AT-KC2000PS1 KAIROS CORE FLAGSHIP MAINFRAME With 2 NIC

Panasonic KAIROS AT-KC2000PS1 is an IT/IP-centric live video processing platform built for high-density switching, compositing, and routing without locking you into fixed hardware-style I/O limits. It leans on CPU + GPU resources to balance total processing load, so you can scale inputs, outputs, multiviewers, and layers around the show instead of designing the show around the frame.

Highlights

• High-capacity KAIROS core designed for large, complex productions with significantly expanded processing headroom
• ST 2110 and SDI workflows with scalable I/O counts depending on format and transport
• ST 2022-7 redundancy supported when connected to two 100G ST 2110 networks
• 4RU chassis with reduced noise appropriate for venue or studio environments
• Built-in players + multiview with high storage allocation and multi-output monitoring

Quick Specs & Uses

• Platform type: IT/IP-centric live video processing platform (Linux-based)
• Power: dual AC in (x2), 100 to 127V or 200 to 240V, 50/60 Hz; current consumption 10.0A / 5.0A
• Rack + physical: 4RU, approx. 17 kg; 430 mm W x 176 mm H x 505 mm D
• ST 2110 capacity: up to 64 in / 40 out (1.5G), 32 in / 40 out (3G), 8 in / 10 out (4K)
• SDI capacity: up to 32 in / 16 out (1.5G or 3G), up to 16 in / 8 out (4K)
• Network + sync: 100G QSFP28 x2 for ST 2110 and PTP sync; 1GbE RJ-45 x2
• Monitoring: DisplayPort 1.4 x4 for multiview output; HD/4K multiview out x4 with up to 36 PiP each
• Reference: REF in/out via Micro BNC (up to 8)
• Signal processing: Y/PB/PR, 4:2:2 10-bit; ST 2110-20 supported; AES67 audio via ST 2110-30 (48 kHz / 24-bit)
• Timing tools: PTP sync on QSFP and GbE; frame synchronizer always on; 0 to 12 frame delay in 1-frame steps; minimum 1-frame latency

Why It Helps

If you have ever hit the wall on a fixed-format switcher where one more input means a new frame or a new box, this is the opposite approach. AT-KC2000PS1 is built to keep the system flexible: route and process across ST 2110 or SDI, keep sync behavior predictable with always-on frame sync, and drive monitoring with multiple multiview outputs. Add ST 2022-7 redundancy with dual 100G networks when the show cannot tolerate a single-path failure.

System Characteristics

• Compressed playback engine: clip player is 2-channel with 850 GB shared storage (AVC-Intra, H.264, DNxHD, ProRes); audio player is 4-channel with 850 GB shared storage (WAV, MP3, Ogg, FLAC, AIFF)
• Canvas and layering: canvas up to 12K (66 megapixels); layer count depends on GPU performance, with visible usage via GPU meter
• Tally and external control: 6-color independent tally indicators and NDI tally supported; TSL 5.0 supported and compatible with Panasonic PTZ cameras and AK-UC4000 4K studio camera
• Control surface scaling: connectable control panels supported up to a total of 16 units (AT-KC10C1G or AT-KC10C2G, up to 8 each)
• Production toolset: keys and effects include luminance key, chroma key, DVE (2D/2.5D), soft border, corner fix, color correction, crop; macros support scene-specific macros and LUA scripting
