Description  

The CDH 1811 is a versatile, compact SDI to HDMI converter designed to combat a host of monitoring and display applications in Broadcast, Post Production and Pro A/V markets.  

Convert any SDI video signal into a standard HDMI signal for monitoring and display. An optional fiber interface allows the module to be used for monitoring fiber connections and also function as a fiber converter. The HDMI output displays the native input resolution therefore no scaling artefacts are introduced.  

Two channels of audio can be de-embedded from the incoming video signal and provided as digital AES outputs and analog audio signals. Balanced audio outputs have selectable full scale range presets. The two selected audio channels can also be embedded into the HDMI output, or 8 channels selected from the input signal (channels 1-8 or channels 9-16).  

Selectable time-code burn in windows makes the module ideal for editing applications, with a mode to also overlay key metadata presence information.  

All user controls are located on the top of the module clearly labelled and easily accessible. This facilitates simple changes to module function and configuration without referring to a manual. The compact portable design makes it suitable for a wide range of applications in broadcast and mobile production environments.
