Digital signal processing uses HD 4:2:2 component video
signals complying with SMPTE 292M, which are
converted into parallel data and then compressed into
HDCAM format.
The audio signals are based on the AES/EBU format, and
are subjected to digital signal processing without being
compressed.
The unit is equipped with a high definition to standard
definition (HD-to-SD) downconverter, and has the
following interfaces for ease of connection to different
external devices.
• SD analog composite signal output
• Analog audio signal input/output (2 channels)
• HDSDI SMPTE 292M input/output (HD digital video/
audio, 4/8 channels)
• SDI SMPTE 259M output (component digital video/
audio, 4/8 channels)
• AES/EBU serial digital audio input/output (4 channels
for input, 4/8 channels for output)
• Timecode input/output
