AJA OG-UDC modular signal processing module

AJA OG-UDC openGear 3G-SDI Up, Down, Cross-Converter

OG-UDC is an openGear 10-bit up, down and cross-converter that bridges HD and SD video resolutions. It can up or down-convert between SD, HD and 3G HD (1080p 50/60), cross-convert between HD formats including 3G HD, and perform SD/SD aspect ratio conversion, using AJA hardware conversion technology.

It has a 3G-SDI input and output, an HDMI output and two 3-pin terminal block connectors for analogue audio outputs, plus a reference input. It can be configured remotely with DashBoard or locally with DIP switches. OG-UDC supports 3G-SDI Level A only and passes through embedded audio ancillary data only. The card is designed for high-density openGear 2RU frames, including AJA's OG-X-FR, and is monitored and controlled with Ross DashBoard software on Windows, macOS and Linux, from a connected computer or over the local network.
