The mission of the converter is to convert only the signal format and output a signal completely identical to the input source. The AV-3-BD gives complete conversion with no clipping and that suppresses video signal deterioration to extreme limits, until a super black of 0 IRE or less and a super white of 100 IRE or greater is reached. The linearity of the color spaces is also of course maintained.

Supports input and output rates of 480i, 720p, 1080i, 1080p, 2K (2048 x 1080). It also of course correctly recognizes 23.98p and 24p, 29.97p and 30p, 59.94p and 60p and can even convert P (Progressive) and PsF (Progressive segmented Frames).

3G-SDI includes Level A often used in facility equipment such as for security and digital signage, and Level B used for broadcast equipment. The AV-3 series allows users to select both SDI output types. (Has no up/down conversion function for resolution.)

This series has an internal frame buffer function in addition to a low-delay direct conversion mode. In order to avoid potential signal delays, many converters usually don’t include frame buffers. However the AV-3 series to the contrary, achieves frame rate conversion by way of an internal frame buffer. Further, even if the video signal is cutoff, output of a black or frozen final frame can be selected. Yet another function fades-out the audio in a minimum 1 frame and fades-in when restoring. On the other hand, a direct conversion mode to hold delay to a minimum is also included.

The AV series is designed to fit within a 1/4U rack side width and 1U rack size height. A maximum of 4 units can be mounted within 1U rack size and the screw holes in the rear section can also be used to mount it onto a wall. The upper and lower cover overhangs of the rear panel can reduce impacts or unwanted contact with the connector section.
