Router Control Panels

The Magellan™ family of control panels provides a fast, powerful, and simple way to control your Imagine Communications or third-party routing systems. Available as a series of 10 programmable hardware panels in 1 or 2RU versions, Magellan panels offer intuitive, web-based configuration — enabling the industry’s fastest setup for both local and remote operations.

These feature-rich, cost-effective and highly customizable panels — ranging from simple, button-per-source, single-bus panels to multilevel, multibus, relegendable LCD-button panels — are sure to meet both your budget and routing operational requirements.

Designed with an understanding of the physical layout of a typical facility or OB truck, these compact RCPs — less than 2 inches deep — integrate easily into console-mount or any other space-constrained environment, enabling you to rapidly optimize the navigation and control of your routers.
