Decimator Design 12G-CROSS

HDMI / SDI 4K Cross Converter with Scaling and Frame Rate Conversion. Q4/2019.

The 12G-CROSS is a small, low-power portable converter encased in a solid robust aluminium case that does not contain a noisy fan, allowing it to be used in almost any environment. Enables either of the HDMI or SDI outputs to be simultaneously sourced from either the HDMI or SDI input or the new 4K scaling engine. The 4K scaling engine can be driven by either the SDI or HDMI input, supports horizontal and/or vertical flipping and can be locked to either the SDI, HDMI or Genlock input. The audio pairs in the SDI and HDMI outputs can be rearranged as required, and it is also possible to convert between Level A and Level B 3G-SDI.

It also includes 4x (3G/HD/SD)-SDI outputs, that allow it to be used as a 1 to 4 distribution amplifier. The 12G-CROSS is a truly portable product that incorporates an easy-to-use LCD screen and button control system. This gives easy access to the outstanding features without using complicated LED/button controls, dip switches, or having to carry around a computer to change a simple setting. This unit also includes an USB port for control and firmware updates, metal thread locking DC power socket, and power supply and USB cable.

The 12G-CROSS features the following four modes:

• HDMI to SDI while simultaneously converting SDI to HDMI
• HDMI to HDMI while simultaneously converting SDI to SDI
• HDMI to SDI and HDMI
• SDI to SDI and HDMI
