Signal Routing Software
Switch Path Manager
Our signal routing software, Switch Path Manager, simplifies signal routing through switching systems and speeds up the development of switching system software. Switch Path Manager supports Pickering''s switching modules and the interconnection between these products. Third-party products can be supported upon request. Once a switching system model has been created, simply defining the endpoints that are required to be connected together can perform signal routing. The ability to automate signal routing results in effective and easy switching system managementsafely and quickly.
