The BrightEye 1 Analog-SDI to SDI-Optical Converter with TBC and Frame Sync from Ensemble Designs is a device designed to convert analog component, analog composite S-video (Y/C), and SDI video inputs into simultaneous SDI (electrical) and optical outputs. Front-panel controls allow you to select the input source and format, as well as adjust video gain. Video levels can also be adjusted through the BrightEye software package included with the unit, and which is compatible with both Windows and Mac operating systems.
A built-in time-base corrector & frame synchronizer provide steady output, even with marginal inputs. Reference input on the converter is used to genlock its output to house reference a color, such as black. Also included are color bars and SDI checkfield (pathological) test patterns to facilitate transmission path testing. This unit offers 12-bit resolution.
Note! Please note that a power supply is not included with the unit and must be purchased separately.
