Chapter 2: Overview
2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
The HDMI to 3G/HD/SD-SDI Converter converts HDMI to 3G/HD/SD SDI in real
time. The conversion between SDI and HDMI is purely digital and guarantees no
loss transformation for both audio and video. Plus, with up to 8 channels of
audio support, 7.1 channel or 5.1 channel audio becomes available. The
VSC-HDMI-SDI also provides two low-jitter SDI outputs for daisychain or multi-
ple monitors. And, it can also be used in combination with VSC-SDI-HDMI to
extend HDMI video over coax cable.
