Kramer Electronics has introduced the VP-470 3G HD-SDI Digital Scaler.
The unit is for SDI signals up to 3G HD-SDI resolution and it up or down-scales SD, HD and 3G HD-SDI signals to one of 16 resolutions of up to 1080p @60Hz. The output of the VP-470 can be used to feed a production switcher, edit suite, or router in a television studio. It can take the feed from a satellite receiver and scale it before it is sent out live over the air. In production, it can scale camera feeds coming in from the field before ingesting the footage into a video server.
