In January 2005, CBS News will upgrade from the Q128, to a new Q256 SDI router, initially configured as 160x128, and expandable to 256x256 within the 16U frame.

Management of the routing equipment is via a Quartz SC-1000 system controller, with user control from the 25 plus customized intelligent Quartz control panels.
