Axia 2001-20223-000 5-Button Film-Cap Switch Panel (Rackmount)

IP Based Audio Routing Control Made Simple

Axia Routing Control Panels are hardware interfaces designed to give operators direct, reliable control over large IP-based audio routing networks. Built to work seamlessly with Axia PathfinderPC and PathfinderPRO software, these panels allow broadcasters and engineers to manage thousands of audio streams with confidence, speed, and precision from physical control points throughout a facility.

Hands On Control Anywhere in the Facility

These routing control panels make it easy to place network control exactly where it is needed, whether that is in a studio turret, a technical operations center, or an equipment rack. Each panel connects to Axia routing control systems and translates button presses into routing commands, scene recalls, or logic-driven actions, allowing fast execution without navigating software menus.

Flexible Button Styles for Different Workflows

Axia offers multiple panel styles to match different operational needs. Film-cap control panels use durable, aircraft-grade illuminated switches that are ideal when dynamic text is not required. SmartSwitch panels feature LCD buttons that change color and labeling based on user actions, while SoftSwitch panels use high-resolution OLED buttons capable of displaying custom graphics for instant visual identification.

Fast Routing for Live Broadcast Environments

For applications that require quick source-to-destination changes, Axia routing panels provide immediate response with minimal operator effort. The XY Routing Control Panel allows users to select and route any networked source to any output with simple knob movements, making it especially useful for live production and fast-paced broadcast environments.

Designed for Scalable IP Audio Networks

Axia routing systems are capable of handling up to 10,000 audio streams, and these control panels are built to scale with that capability. Whether triggering a simple contact closure or executing a complex routing salvo, the panels integrate tightly with Pathfinder control software to ensure consistent behavior across large, distributed audio networks.

Built for Professional Broadcast Reliability

Every Axia Routing Control Panel is engineered for continuous operation in professional broadcast facilities. Rackmount designs in 5-, 10-, and 15-button configurations provide flexible installation options, while configurable LED backlighting and customizable labeling improve usability in low-light control rooms and studios.
