Planning a complete display?Let's calculate the system that works with this device together.
Calculate
Best suited for
- Synchronous installations where a PC or live HDMI/DVI source is shown one-to-one on the display.
- Displays with a total load of up to 2,600,000 px (4 Ethernet outputs).
Key features (manufacturer)
- Inputs: 2x HDMI 1.3 (one with loop), 1x DVI (IN & LOOP), 1x 3G-SDI (IN & LOOP), 1x optical fiber port (OPT 1)
- 4x Gigabit Ethernet outputs driving up to 2.6 million pixels, max. width 10,240 pixels, max. height 8192 pixels
- 2x fiber outputs: OPT 1 copies the output on the 4 Ethernet ports, OPT 2 copies or backs it up
- 1x HDMI 1.3 output for monitoring or video output
- Three working modes: Video Controller, Fiber Converter, Bypass
- 2x layers with adjustable size, position and priority; up to 10 user-defined presets
- Low latency: delay from input to receiving card reduced to 20 lines with low latency and Bypass mode both enabled
- Hot backup between devices and between Ethernet ports; pixel level brightness and chroma calibration; automatic screen brightness adjustment with an external light sensor
