X marks the spot where it happened

Visitors to the Harris stand today saw the launch of the brand new 1RU X50 synchroniser/converter, as a giant 2m tall X-shaped display was unwrapped under their eyes to mark the occasion. The X50 joins the now well-established X75 and X85 platforms to offer significant processing power in a very small form factor.
Why do I care? 
According to Oliver Abadeer, European product marketing manager, the X50 is “….simplicity personified. Customers working in dynamic environments such as OB trucks now have the highest quality 1RU processor at a great price to be competitive in doing their jobs.”

1RU synchroniser processors seem to have been a Harris speciality since they created the blueprint for this kind of device 10 years ago and have continued to be at the cutting edge ever since.
 
A technical spec is available here.
The X50 is ideal for OB truck and production studio environments.
