Decimator MC-DMON-QUAD – 4-Channel 3G/HD/SD-SDI openGear Multiviewer Card

Decimator MC-DMON-QUAD – 4-Channel 3G/HD/SD-SDI openGear Multiviewer Card

The Decimator Design MC-DMON-QUAD is an openGear card with a 1 to 4 channel 3G/HD/SD-SDI multiviewer, or 4 to 1 input multiplexer. The 4 inputs auto-detect their format and each window is independent, so sources with different formats and frame rates can be combined on the SDI output, with low latency buffering for non-synchronous inputs; in pass-through mode a single input is sent full screen.

It is meant for machine rooms, control rooms and OB trucks that already use openGear frames and want the multiviewer in the rack instead of a separate box. Labels (UMD), 8-channel audio meters and tallies can be driven dynamically over RS-422/485 with the TSL protocol, through the 3-pin connector on the rear module. The card is controlled from openGear DashBoard or through its USB Mini B port. The DR1-10B1G rear module (10 x BNC and RS-422/485 connector) is required and sold separately.
