Overview

AJA's Io XT provides professional-grade I/O for high-end computers using a
Thunderbolt interface with 10Gbps available bandwidth. Io XT is the ideal portable
companion for lightning-fast video capture, playback and up/down/cross
conversion. Designed for today’s workflows, Io XT provides a new interface for video
Pro's working with 10-bit uncompressed, Apple ProRes 422, Apple ProRes 422 (HQ),
XDCAM HD, DVCPRO HD, stereoscopic 3D workflows, and more.

Io XT connects with a single Thunderbolt cable and provides a second Thunderbolt
connector for storage, making it perfect for on set, or in the edit suite.

Based on the KONA 3G hardware, Io XT provides 3G/Dual-link/HD/SD-SDI,
Component Analog, and HDMI connectivity. The AJA Mac driver delivers extensive
codec and media support within all professional 3rd-party video applications.

Io XT's 10-bit hardware conversion capability paired with a Thunderbolt RAID System
creates a super-fast editing system, portable enough to fit in a backpack—with
desktop level power.
