DMC-HD-DSP HDMI Input
Card with DSP for DM
Switchers
The DMC-HD-DSP is an input card for a DigitalMedia switcher, providing one
HDMI input. The DMC-HD-DSP supports HDMI with deep color, handling sources
with resolutions and frame rates up to 1080p60, HD lossless audio, and color depths
up to 12-bit.
The DMC-HD-DSP provides all of the features of the DMC-HD with the addition of
internal DSP processing to enable the simultaneous distribution of uncompressed 7.1
channel HD surround sound and 2-channel audio. The DMC-HD-DSP is
recommended for use with Blu-ray Disc players and other HD sources that output
multi-channel surround sound audio via HDMI, allowing the multi-channel signal to
reach the surround sound system without requiring any decoding, while also
providing a 2-channel down-mix to feed a stereo zone or audio distribution system.
Additional connections on the card include an HDMI loop back output, a stereo
analog audio loop back output, and a USB HID port. The HDMI output passes the
input signal through to feed a local device, or to feed a second DM switcher for
output expansion purposes. The analog audio output breaks out the stereo audio
signal from the HDMI input and passes it through to feed a CNX-PAD8A, AAE, or
other multi-room audio distribution system.
The USB HID port allows a remote mouse/keyboard connected at the display
location, to control a centralized source device (i.e. computer, media server, etc.) at
the equipment rack.
