Aja Video Systems 12G-AMA-R 4-Channel 12G-SDI balanced analog audio Embedder/Disembedder with Single LC Fiber Receiver, 8 XLR connectors

AJA 12G-AMA-R 12G-SDI 4-Channel Analog Audio Embedder/Disembedder with LC Fiber Receiver

The AJA 12G-AMA-R is a 4-channel analog audio embedder/disembedder Mini-Converter with 12G-SDI input and output up to 4K/UltraHD. This model ships with a single-channel LC fiber SFP receiver, which adds a fiber input, so 4K/UltraHD signals can be extended over long distances.

Disembedding is always active on four balanced analog outputs, while embedding is selectable per channel pair, either passing the audio already in the 12G-SDI signal or inserting the analog audio from the XLR breakout cable. Analog levels are selectable, the input video standard is detected automatically and HDR signals are passed through; setup is done with DIP switches or via USB with AJA Mini-Config software.
