7814UDX Series

Dual Path 3G/HD Up/Down/Cross Converters with Frame Sync

The 7814UDX series are dual path broadcast quality up/down/cross converters
that convert between common SD/SMPTE 259M and HD/SMPTE 292M video
signals. “-3G” versions add support for common 3G/SMPTE 424M video
signals. These modules support frame synchronization and external genlock
inputs (card and frame reference) for video timing adjustments.
The 7814UDX series supports broadcast quality scaling and offers both
standard and user defined ARC modes. AFD (SMPTE 2016) based steering of
ARC modes and stamping AFD codes is fully supported. Transitions between
AFD modes are frame accurate/glitch free. Advanced motion adaptive spatial-
temporal (3D) noise reduction and next generation de-interlacing techniques
ensure superior resolution and artifact reduction, generating the highest quality
video suitable for broadcast and other professional media applications. Full
broadcast quality color correction and detail enhancement processors are
integrated. RGB based color legalization is also supported. ITU Rec. 709 ↔
601 color space conversions are performed as needed. With the +LG2 option,
static or animated graphics can be stored on the card’s internal SD memory for
simple side panel fill or simple logo insertion applications.
The 7814UDX series supports 16 channels of embedded audio with audio delay
automatically matching video delay. Additional audio delay can be applied.
16 channels of embedded audio are supported with standard proc features
including 5.1 to stereo down-mixing (LoRo or LtRt), audio channel shuffling,
gain, inversion and mono-mixing. Audio processing options include stereo to
5.1 upmixing (+UMX2) and IntelliGain audio loudness management (+IG2).
With “-AES8” variants, 8 discrete AES inputs and 8 discrete AES outputs are
provided on a per path basis. Full audio routing capability allows outgoing
embedded and discrete AES audio (-AES8 versions) to be sourced from any
combination of embedded audio, discrete AES inputs (-AES8 versions) or
processed audio.
The “-F” versions of the card offer added I/O via Evertz pluggable SFP modules
(ordered separately). Whether the card uses the SFP or coaxial inputs is
software selectable on a per path basis. On the output side, in addition to the
four coaxial outputs per path, one output per path is available via a dual-output
SFP. Optical SFP's may be installed (ordered separately) to facilitate optical
inputs and/or outputs.
These modules are SNMP capable for remote monitoring, control and
configuration capabilities using VistaLINK® PRO, CP-2116E or CP-2232E
Control Panels. VistaLINK® is available when modules are used with the 3RU
7800FR series or 1RU 7801 frames and a 7700/7800/7801FC VistaLINK®
Frame Controller module is installed. Each 7814UDX series card occupies two
slots in the frame.
