Easily Scale & Sync 4K Signals With Apantac’s openGear DisplayPort to SDI Scan Converters

DisplayPort is getting more popular for high-performance broadcast workflows. So Apantac has expanded their openGear lineup to include 2 scan converters that allow you to scale and sync in 4K with DisplayPort to SDI and SDI to DisplayPort.

The OG-US-5500-RM and OG-US-6000-RM UHD Bi-directional Universal Scalers with Genlock feature DisplayPort 1.2 and 12G SDI inputs/outputs up to 4096x2160p60.

Thomas Tang, founder and president of Apantac, spoke with Simon Tillyer from KitPlus at NAB 2026 about Apantac’s openGear cards for broadcast and proAV. 

In addition to the new universal scalers, they also talked about a frame sync card, a pattern generator, Dante audio embedders and de-embedders, and SDI embedders and de-embedders.
