Analogue input cards accept RGBHV, YPrPb, Y/C and PAL/NTSC; all of which can be up-scaled to 1080p resolution. It has a 2U 19-in rack mounting chassis and 4-way modular input and output cards cater for a wide range of signal formats.
It is fully HDCP compliant and incorporates enhanced EDID management. It is suited for use in multi-channel signal switching and distribution for commercial, educational and residential settings. The addition of videowall processing support makes it suitable for command and control centres and other centralised solutions.
