XIP-3901-DC Down Converter

Dual-channel 12G/Quad Link 3G/3G/HD-SDI Downconverter with HDR Application for XIP-3911 and XIP-3901

The XIP-3901-DC application is a dual-channel 12G/quad link 3G/3G/HD-SDI downconverter, which is designed to synchronize, downconvert and process 4K UHD 2160p and 1080p for both 1080p and HD broadcast production. The XIP-3901-DC application features broadcast-quality down-scalers, interlacers and detail enhancers.

FEATURES

  • Independent dual processing channels
  • 3G 1080p, quad link 3G and 12G 2160p inputs
  • HD 720p/1080i and 3G 1080p inputs outputs
  • 12G-SDI Mode 1 and Type 1
  • Quad link 3G in 2SI and square division
  • 3G level A & level B dual link
  • High-quality downscaler and interlacer
  • Integrated frame synchronizer (freeze to last valid frame on error)
  • Audio/video deglitcher to handle video hot switch at the input
  • XIP-3901-UDC-HDR option provides HDR conversion supporting both Wide Color Gamut BT.709/ BT.2020 and High Dynamic Range: HLG, PQ and S-Log3:
    • All processing operates in full 10-bit video signals with ability to pass sub-blacks and super-whites in SMPTE Narrow video 
    • Choice between Grass Valley conversions algorithms, BBC HLG LUT v1.4 and user defined 3D-LUT support 
    • ITU R BT 2111 HLG/PQ color bar test patterns 
  • External reference or URS frame reference
  • Embedded audio and metadata delay and synchronization
  • GV Orbit for configuration, control and monitoring
