Aja Video Systems OG-12GM 12G-SDI to/from SDI Muxer/DeMuxer, DashBoard Support

AJA OG-12GM openGear 12G-SDI to/from Quad Link SDI Muxer/DeMuxer

OG-12GM is a compact openGear SDI transport card for 12G-SDI to quad link 3G-SDI and quad link 3G-SDI to 12G-SDI conversion. The muxer/demuxer supports 4K, UltraHD, 2K, HD and SD workflows and converts quad link signals to single link and vice versa at 12G, 6G, 3G and 1.5G, as well as Dual Link and Dual Stream conversions. Both Square Division (Quadrant) and Two Sample Interleave (2SI) mappings are supported, and input diagnostics with a timing analyser validate the alignment of quad link inputs. It can also act as a 1x4 distribution amplifier. It is designed for high-density openGear 2RU frames, including AJA's OG-X-FR, and is configured, monitored and controlled with Ross DashBoard software on Windows, macOS and Linux, from a connected computer or over the local network.
