Lightware 25G-8HDMI2-A2-IB
4K HDMI Input Board with Digital Audio Add-on
25G-8HDMI2-A2-IB provides fully transparent HDMI 1.4 connectivity to the latest high-end digital sources including 3D functions between the endpoints.
Description
25G-8HDMI2-A2-IB provides fully transparent HDMI 1.4 connectivity to the latest high-end digital sources including 3D functions between the endpoints. Supports resolution up to 4096x2160@30Hz in 4:4:4 mode or 3840x2160@60Hz in 4:2:0 mode. The new 300 MHz board supports the latest 3D formats as well as HD multichannel audio.
25G-8HDMI2-A2-IB has 8 HDMI connectors with an additional digital S/PDIF audio connector for each HDMI port. Each input has 30 m input cable equalization and an individual EDID Management. 25G-8HDMI2-A2-IB handles embedded audio in the HDMI signal (with capabilities of routing to the 25G audio layers). The S/PDIF input signal can be embedded to the 25G Video layer or sent to the Forward audio layer as well.
The A2 add-on has bi-directional configurable S/PDIF connectors. IEC 60958-1 or IEC 61937 audio embedded in the HDMI input or from the Return audio layer can be switched to the S/PDIF output. Moreover, IEC 60958-1 or IEC 61937 audio through the S/PDIF input can be embedded to the HDMI signal or can be routed to the Forward audio layer.
The audio options of the HDMI input board are software configurable on a per-port basis.
