The UDC is a broadcast quality Up/Down/Cross Mini-Converter which can convert between
SD, HD, and 3G video formats. Borrowing from AJA’s industry leading conversion technology
used in the FS2, the UDC provides very high quality conversions at a low price. The UDC
also supports embedded audio, 8-channels via HDMI or 16-channels via SDI. I/O’s include
SD/HD/3G SDI Input and Output, HDMI output, and 2-channel RCA style audio output for
monitoring. The UDC can be controlled by local dipswitches with additional control available
via USB and AJA’s MiniConfig application. A Reference Input allows the video output to be
timed to a local reference.
