CR QMOD™ technology is opening the doors to new HDTV applications. The QMOD™-SDI HD-SDI enables cost-effective distribution of HD-SDI, SD-SDI, digital signage, HD subscriber sources, and EAS emergency AV using existing broadband coax cabling in sports, retail and entertainment facilities, corporate offices, colleges, schools and worship centers.
- Create your own on-site HDTV broadband distribution system using HD-SDI, Component, and NTSC video sources
- Distribute digital signage, satellite, cable, and media as HD digital cable channels over existing broadband wiring
- View HD sources at any destination using HDTV displays or tuners
Features
- Accepts digital HD-SDI (1080i/720p) and SD-SDI (480i)
- Auto-senses SDI resolution, changes QMOD resolution to match
- Inputs analog HD (1080i/720p/480p.480i) Component, S-Video and Composite video
- Switches between SDI, Component, and video inputs with audio follow
- Responds to GPI inputs to switch to EAS composite video and audio
- Employs pro-grade HD encoding by NTT that minimizes artifacts for motion video and signage “tickers”
- Merges audio with video from embedded SDI, analog stereo, digital optical and coax inputs
- Creates a high-definition 720p/1080i MPEG-2 stream for broadcast
- Delivers a fully agile QAM 64/256 digital cable channel 2-135
- Amplifies for distribution over an on-site broadband cable system with adjustable output level to 29 dBmV, compatible with all cable format broadband systems
- Sets up with front-panel buttons and easy to use menus, including inputs, encoding, channel, and RF options
