AJA OG-4K2HD OpenGear 4K to HD down-conversion
Overview
OG-4K2HD is an openGear card that down-converts professional SDI 4K/UltraHD signals to 2K/HD resolution using AJA’s high-quality scaling for cost-effective monitoring and conversion. OG-4K2HD’s 3G-SDI and HDMI outputs are live all the time, producing fantastic-looking HD images for on-set monitoring or direct-to-air broadcast. The OG-4K2HD supports automatic or configurable HDR metadata generation for the SDI output VPID and HDMI output HDR Infoframe.
OG-4K2HD supports high frame rate (HFR) 4K/UltraHD inputs at 50 and 60fps and down-converts to 2K/HD outputs at 50 and 60fps for accurate viewing. OG-4K2HD’s configuration options can extract an HD resolution image from the 4K input to provide a one-to-one pixel image for 4K focus checks on HD displays.
Designed for use in high density openGear 2RU frames including AJA’s OG-X-FR frame, new DashBoard Software support on Windows®, macOS® and Linux® offers remote control and monitoring of the openGear architecture and provides convenient and industry-standard configuration, monitoring and control options over a PC or local network.
