The 7815VPDA is a single powerful product which supports all of the above functions on two independent paths. This offers exceptional value and density while reducing interwiring, rack space and power requirements. Models are available to support common HD and 3G video formats.
DistributionFor signal distribution or connection to external elements such as patch panels, re-clocked copies of the input signals are provided on two coax outputs per path. Six coax outputs per path of the processed input signals are also provided. Standard connectors are HD-BNC, while DIN 1.0/2.3 are optional.
Audio ProcessingAs standard features, the 7815VPDA series supports 16 channels of embedded audio, 5.1 to stereo down-mixing (LoRo or LtRt), audio channel shuffling, gain, inversion and mono-mix capabilities. Optional audio processing features include IntelliGain audio loudness control (+IG2 option) and stereo to 5.1 upmix (+UMX2 option).
Optical/Electrical ConversionIn addition to coaxial inputs and outputs, the 7815VPDA also offers added I/O via Evertz pluggable SFP modules (ordered separately). Whether the card uses the SFP or coaxial inputs for either processing or distribution path is software selectable on a per path basis. On the output side, in addition to the six fully processed coaxial outputs per path, four outputs per path are available via SFP's. Optical or coaxial type SFP's may be installed (ordered separately) to facilitate alternate coaxial or optical inputs or additional coaxial or optical outputs.Frame Synchronization and Up/Down/Cross Conversion With the +UDX2 option, the 7815VPDA series can support frame synchronization and video up/down/cross conversion capabilities. Full AFD, video proc, detail enhancement, RGB based color legalization and ITU Rec. 709 601 color space conversion processes are also included. Audio delay is automatically synchronized with video delay. Additional audio and video delay are also available. CEA 608/708 Closed Caption and timecode information are transferred from input to output performing all HD SD data translations and time code recalculations. The 7815VPDA is also capable of generating and embedding timecode via synchronization with NTP.
