XVP-3901-FS

3G/HD/SD Frame Sync/ARC with Optional Audio Processor

The XVP-3901-FS is a highly integrated, 3G/HD/SD frame synchronizer/aspect ratio converter and optional video/audio signal processor, which is designed to synchronize and process HD and SD signals for 3G/HD/SD hybrid plants. It is identical to the XVP-3901 except that it does not have the up/down/crossconversion capabilities. It features a dual 3Gb/HD/SD input selector and provides multiple outputs. Although not up/down/crossconverting the input signal, the –FS model can still perform ARC control on SD signals, useful when converting 16:9 SD signals to 4:3 SD signals and vice-versa.

FEATURES
