Barco PDS-4K SDI Switcher
The PDS-4K SDI enables single screen, dual screen switching and quad screen switching with high-quality 4K processing, and it can also support Dante® audio with the addition of an optional interface card. It includes six HDMI 2.0 and two 12G-SDI inputs and four fully seamless mixing program outputs at up to 4K resolution on HDMI 2.0 and 12G-SDI connectors. Benefit from the ultra-low latency processing (= 2 frames delay @60Hz), smooth video display and seamless transitions between inputs to maximize audience engagement. Additionally, you can increase interactivity by showing up to two live inputs simultaneously with the available PiP layers. And the Event Master AthenaTM scaling technology guarantees superior signal clarity and minimum scaling artifacts.
