The AJA FS2 Dual Channel Frame Synchronizer and Converter supports 2 independent streams of 3G/HD/SD 10-bit Broadcast quality video and 2 independent groups of 16 channel AES audio simultaneously. The individual FS2 video channel supports analog component or composite, 3G/HD/SD-SDI, Dual-Link, and HDMI I/O inputs/outputs.
You can use the FS2 as 2 separate Frame Synchronizers/Format Converters for convenient operation. In addition, it can be used by combining channels like HD sidebar keying where both the video and background graphics are up converted and combined. Each channel features still-store, keyer, and video proc amp/color corrector offering more expansion options.
The FS2 Frame Synchronizer and Converter supports down conversion between HD/SD and cross conversion between HD formats (including 3G 1080p50/60 formats). In addition, the FS2 features full input and output signal routing that allows any I/O port to be assigned to any of the processing channels.
Featuring 2 audio processors, with each processor supporting 16-channel AES/EBU digital audio, 16 channel embedded audio, and 8-channel balanced analog audio, the FS2 offers variety of audio control. It supports closed captioning indicating presence of closed captioning data in the video signal. In addition, the unit also supports conversion between SD and HD formats (including full conversion between CEA-608 and CEA-708 caption standards).
With support for SNMP monitoring and web-based remote control, the FS2 Frame Synchronizer and Converter can be used in any network. The FS2 supports a 3rd-party Remote Control Panel (available separately) that offers web-based remote control over 10/100/1000 Ethernet via an internal web server.
Supporting a wide range of broadcast formats, the FS2 Frame Synchronizer and Converter can be used for applications such as broadcast facilities, production trucks, video and audio signal conversion, adaptation, timing, and processing.
