AJA Video Systems Expands Range of HD Converters
May 21, 2004
Grass Valley, CA - AJA Video Systems has further expanded its line of Standard and High Definition converters with the recent addition of the HD10C2 dual rate D/A Converter, the RH10UC Upconverter, and the RH10DA dual rate Distribution Amplifier.
The HD10C2 10-bit, dual rate HD-SDI and SDI digital to analog miniature
converter is AJA's second generation HD D/A. For HD -SDI inputs, the HD10C2
outputs full bandwidth HD component or "VGA" style RGBHV video. For SDI
inputs, the HD10C2 supports component or composite SD outputs. When connected
to a multi-format monitor, this versatile converter will automatically
provide an image from almost any HD or SD input format, the manufacturer describes.
The RH10UC 10 bit SDI to HD-SDI upconverter, compatible with AJA's rack
frames, provides broadcast-quality HD video from SD sources using motion-adaptive de-interlacing and high quality digital scalers. Output HD video is selectable between 720p and 1080i formats. 4 x 3 to 16 x 9 aspect ratio conversion is selectable between 4x3 pillarbox, 14x9 pillarbox zoom, letterbox 16x9 zoom, and anamorphic. The RH10UC also includes a frame synchronizer function with Genlock input and supports embedded audio.
The RH10DA is a dual rate 1x8 HD-SDI/SDI re-clocking Distribution Amplifier
that is also compatible with AJA's rack frames. The RH10DA equalizes and
re-clocks the input and auto-selects between HD and SD. There are LED indicators of the input rate, and the re-clock function can be bypassed with an on-board jumper.
