AJA UDC Up/Down/Cross-Converter - UDC-R0

The UDC is a broadcast quality Up/Down/Cross Mini-Converter which can convert between 3G, HD, and SD video formats. Using the same AJA industry-leading conversion technology as in our FS2, the UDC provides very high-quality conversions at a low price. I/Os include 3G/HD/SD SDI input and output, HDMI output, and 2-channel RCA style audio output. The UDC can be controlled by local DIP switches with additional control available via USB and AJA's MiniConfig application. A Reference input allows the UDC to be locked to a local reference.

Ancillary Data

Supports pass-through of PCM embedded audio
Supports pass-through of non-PCM audio when source is in time with the selected ref (SDI In or Ext Ref). Non-PCM audio is not supported during frame sync operation.
All other ANC data is stripped

HDCP

The UDC does not encode the HDMI output with HDCP encryption. By definition, HD-SDI inputs to the UDC are unencrypted. The HDMI specification requires HDMI monitors to support unencrypted inputs.

User Interface

USB port used with supplied cable and Mini-Config software application to configure device via PC or Mac
