base unit

video input combines composite, YC, SDI video (SECAM, NTSC, PAL) and HD-SDI 
video in 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratio

RGB input combines analog and digital RGB data (up to SXGA) and RGB component
video (up to HDRGB progressive)

can scale all images up to the full output resolution ranging from SVGA up to
UXGA/HD (1920 x 1080)

features unlimited picture-in-picture

supports embedded audio for all SDI and HD-SDI video channels and 112 external 
audio channels; real-time in-picture audio metering incorporates Chromatec 
technology

features integrated warning and alarm handling, GPIO connectors for external 
control, display of computer data, clocks, animated logos, counters, source
identifications

universal streaming video decoding card

Fully integrated – yet flexible – solution

ensures full control over each windowing position, size and content of the sources
displayed

is controlled via a GUI that runs in a standard web-browser

allows to configure, store, retrieve and switch layouts

connects to any display device currently available e.g. CRT monitors, flat screens,
rear projection modules, plasma displays etc. in 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratio

communicates and exchanges information towards network management systems
via SNMP traps

integrates with Barco’s control room solutions TransForm series 
of controllers and most common routing switchers, control 
devices, and other external devices over the LAN or through 
serial communication

As control centers continue to become

larger and more complex, a growing

number of signals from a variety of

sources need to be controlled. Barco’s

H

YDRA

gives unique possibilities to

control up to 60 analog or digital inputs

on one single display simultaneously.

H

YDRA

is operated via a standard web-

browser and features advanced

warnings and alarms. One single PC

can control numerous networked units

that jointly display hundreds of signals.
