Default Not audio related. Video reference

Can anyone suggest a solution
I have 2 FCP suites and need to be able to send Reference to each suite.
I have 8 cores with AJA kona 3's. I haven't found a company that make a device that has switchable outputs.
Currently I have a gen 10 sending bi level to the digibeta and the clients are running in free run.

What i need though is a solution that can send BI level or tri level and different frame rates down one SDI cable. so each room can have its own sync.
for example one room can be working in HD at 23.98 and another in SD at 29.97.

closest thing i have found is by a audio company go figure

I have this clock in my protools studio but never thought about it for video.
My only question is how to be able to patch SD or HD. my router is a blackmagic video hub but it will not pass analog or BI level sync.
stumped..

Sounds to me like you need to set up a patch Bay.

In our Dub room we have one just for reference signals.

Each Ref Gen is amped to give a few outputs which show up on say 4 patch points on the patchbacy then we plug whichever into each room.

So we have Tri Sync with Four ouptus 23.976 and then 4 points with 59.94 4 points with 29.97 etc.

then all the room points are below.

Is that what your looking for?

The Aja Gen 10 can split signals and send 2 different settings to multiple different places by adjusting the dip switches. I do it all the time. I send 29.97 into B and either 23.98 or 29.97 into A depending on what I'm working on.

Exactly. You already have a box that does it.

If you need more distribution :

Or similar will get you more outputs off of the generator.
