Apantac, provider of cost-effective multiviewers, video walls, extenders and signal processing solutions, is debuting its new Pinnacle SDI to HDMI converter / scaler with loudness monitoring at NAB 2013, booth N4613. Pinnacle-L is a companion product to the TAHOMA MiniQ Multiviewer for production monitor wall applications and is an ideal solution for turning a low-cost consumer LCD panel into a broadcast quality loudness monitoring device.
The Pinnacle-L converter is designed for SDI to HDMI conversion and scaling and supports the on-screen display of ATSC A/85 and EBU R128 loudness monitoring.
It supports 3G/HD/SD-SDI inputs and displays an HDMI/DVI output up to 1080P resolution.
Pinnacle-L also provides an HD-SDI output that matches the HDMI output resolution, which means that in addition to being a loudness monitoring device, this converter/scaler offers a variety of user-selectable on-screen display(OSD) for very specific monitoring requirements. The OSD includes: audio/video alarms, up to 16 channels of audio meters, labels, tally and safe area markers.
Pinnacle-L also supports the following features:
-Audio monitoring for analog audio as well as HDMI and SDI embedded audio.
-Dynamic serial tally / UMD (under monitor display) and GPI tally are standard features.
-WSS and AFD
-Native support for Apantac AXP
-Built-in de-interlacer to achieve the highest image quality possible
Pinnacle-L operates as a standalone unit, or up to 8 can be combined to fit into the TAHOMA MiniQ frame and can be mixed and matched as part of the TAHOMA MiniQ Multiviewer solution.
A version of Pinnacle without the loudness monitoring is also available.
Apantac will be at NAB 2013, booth N4613.
