12G-SDI systems
ESG-4100
Multi-Rate SDI 4K Test Signal Generator
Full range of test patterns, extensive outputs
Test signal generator that generates 4K signals (UHD 3840 x 2160p, Full 4K 4096 x 2160p). 4K video signals that are output at 60p/59.94p/50p can be
distributed from 12G-SDI lines to eight outputs and Quad Link 3G-SDI lines to two outputs at the same time. Embeds 16-channel audio into 12G/3G-SDI
or 3G/HD-SDI output. Equipped with two outputs for MADI signals.
