Introduction

Overview

These 3RU and 4RU rack-mounted MPEG/Video/Audio monitors

arethe new benchmark in LCD monitors for broadcast and professional

video applications requiring support for both file-based and traditional

baseband sources. The monitor has 800 x 480 screen resolution, anti-

glare TFT screens, and fully digital signal processing. It supports

H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10, also known as AVC/H.264 or Advanced Video

Coding. It also supports H.262/MPEG-2 Part 2. These are decoded

from MPEG-2 TS (Transport Stream) containers in ASI or IP transport

interfaces. The TS container format can be either 188 bytes or 204 bytes.

Error correction bytes are not used. It does not decode encapsulated

transport streams in other formats, such as QuickTime (MPEG4/

H.264). The MPEG-3270 and MPEG-4290 also support 3G/HD-SDI and

HDMI. All video formats are scaled to native screen resolution in the

highest quality using precision scaling and gamma correction to

produce the best images available.

This chapter contains detailed information on safety and installation

requirements. It also contains an overview of the front and back panel

controls, connectors, and screen features. To quickly unpack and set

up this unit for monitoring, please refer instead to Chapter 2: Quick

Start.
