Overview
The HDC-8223 is a monitoring quality down-converter that also offers optional audio support.
The down-converted SDI and analog composite signals are selected through four, 2:1 crosspoints
allowing any combination of SD-SDI or analog composite (CVBS) outputs on the four card
processed video outputs. With the R2C-8223 full rear module, four analog audio channels are
available.
The HDC-8223 also provides ARC processing and timecode/closed-captioning conversion from
packet-based timecode formats and CEA608/708 HD formats to SD VITC-based (waveform)
timecode and line 21 closed captioning (available on both SDI and analog video outputs).
The HDC-8223 provides the following inputs and outputs:
•
HD/SD SDI IN A / SDI IN B
– two dual-rate HD/SD-SDI inputs (GUI-selectable or basic
failover)
•
PROCESSED VIDEO OUT (1-4)
– via four independent 2:1 GUI-selectable crosspoints,
each of the four BNC outputs can independently be set as SD-SDI or analog composite
(CVBS) outputs
•
RLCK OUT (1-4)
– four HD/SD-SDI reclocked buffered video outputs
•
AN-AUD OUT (1-4)
– four balanced analog audio outputs (R2C-8223 rear module only)
