AJA HDP4 HD-SDI/SDI to DVI-D and Audio Converter User Manual — Introduction
Introduction
The HDP4 is similar to the HDP, converting HD-SDI/SDI to DVI-D for LCD or
Plasma monitors. Where the HDP outputs 1 DVI-D output with audio, the HDP4
provides 4 sets of DVI-D and audio outputs. Each output is separately reclocked and
buffered. Using a very high quality scaling engine, the HDP4 automatically sizes 4:3
or 16:9 inputs to many DVI-D monitors. For appropriate monitor configurations,
scaling is automatically 1 to 1—for example, displaying 1920x1080 video on a
WUXGA (1920x1200) monitor. The HDP4 will also automatically adapt the input
frame rate for monitor compatibility. In addition, the HDP4 provides 2 looping
outputs of the HD-SDI/SDI input.
The HDP4 is designed for use as a general monitoring device, perfect for use in
applications such as:
•
General post-production reference monitoring
•
Client monitoring
•
Presentation
•
Projection
•
Corporate displays
•
Kiosk applications
•
...and much, much more!
The scaling engine in the HDP4 makes it a simple and effective way to get full-screen
images from a myriad of SD and HD sources.
Note:
The HDP4 is not intended as a critical viewing device, for applications such
as color-correction, etc. We recommend professional/broadcast grade monitors for
such critical applications.
