The C2-2855 Universal Scaler PLUS from TV One allows you to convert just about any type of video signal to just about any other signal with less than two frames of latency. It can support resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz and will accept as well as output composite, component, VGA, DVI, HDMI, and SDI. Additionally, analog audio inputs and outputs allow stereo audio to be embedded or de-embedded from digital video signals. On top of scaling and frame rate conversion, the C2-2855 can also act as a 3 x 3 matrix switcher allowing you to route any of the inputs to any of the outputs.
Flexible Inputs and Outputs
The C2-2855 features inputs and outputs to cover just about any scenario:
- Inputs: SDI with 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, and SD-SDI support (supports level A and level B HD-SDI), HDMI, VGA , composite, DVI-U, a stereo 3.5mm mini jack audio input, and three analog audio inputs on terminal connectors
- Outputs: SDI with 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, and SD-SDI support, HDMI, composite, DVI-U, and one analog audio on a terminal connector
- DVI-U: DVI-U is a combo connector that will pass HDMI, DVI, VGA, component, or composite video signals as well as embedded audio where applicable. An adapter will be required to connect any devices that do not use DVI connectors
Auto-Switching
The Auto-Switching function allows the user to connect video source and have its image automatically displayed on screen without having to press any buttons. The incoming resolution is quickly detected and analyzed, meaning within a few seconds the user is up and running and ready to present. This is particularly useful in situations where there is little or no technical supervision, such as in meeting rooms, medical environments, teaching spaces, or live staging events

Remote Control Options
In addition the built-in OLED screen and OSD menu system provided for local operation, RS-232 and IP control are supported by C2-2855. RS-232 allows third-party wired remotes and control systems to be used; while IP control allows the device to be operate from a computer connected to the same network. Control and configuration software for Windows is included
Advanced Features
- Keying: allows one input to be keyed over a second input. The keyed image may be faded in and out. Precise keying at the pixel level is possible due to 4:4:4 sampling format when using RGB video sources
- Transitions: permits Seamless Cut, Fade, or Wipe transitions when switching between input sources
- Picture-in-Picture (PIP): allows an input to be inset in a window over a second input or vice versa; the PIP window may be placed anywhere on the screen
- Genlock: synchronizes video sources internally to ensure seamless switching
