2GU100 - Dual channel 3Gb/s, HD up-converter with color corrector

Description

The 2GU100 is a dual channel high-quality up converter. The optimized scaling and filter algorithms ensure crisp broadcast ready pictures from a native SD or HD source, by use of a 64 tap FIR filters. The cards allow you to simulcast 2 HD or 3Gb/s (2GU models only) signals from 2 native HD, SD or 1 CVBS and an SD infrastructure. The embedded audio is carried over to the HD or 3Gb/s domain. The appropriate aspect ratio can be applied by control of VI, WSS and GPI inputs by use of 8 presets per output that can store the aspect ratio conversions.

The 2GU100 is compatible with 270Mb/s, 1.5Gb/s and 3Gb/s for full 1080p/50 or 1080p/59.94 use.
