9904-UDX-4K-DSP

The Cobalt® 9904-UDX-4K-DSP 12G/6G/3G/HD/SD UHD Up/Down/Cross Converter/Frame Sync with DSP Advanced Audio Processing is Cobalt’s next generation of advanced scaler/frame synchronizers for the openGear® platform. 

The 9904-UDX-4K-DSP upconverts 12G/6G/3G/HD/SD to either UHD1 3840×2160 Square DIvision Multiplex (SDM) or Two-Sample Interleave (2SI) quad 3G-SDI based formats, or can output ST 2082 12G-SDI for single-wire 4K transport. With both 12G-SDI and quad 3G-SDI inputs, the 9904-UDX-4K can downconvert 12G and quad UHD. The 9904-UDX-4K provides an HDMI 2.0 output for economical 4K video monitoring. The 9904-UDX-4K-DSP offers numerous options, including SDR-to-HDR conversion and color correction.

The 9904-UDX-4K-DSP offers a DSP-based platform that supports multiple advanced audio DSP options, including Dolby® Real-Time Loudness Leveling automatic loudness processing, Dolby® E/D/D+ encode/decode, and Linear Acoustic® UPMAX™ automatic upmixing. Embedded audio and metadata are properly delayed and re-embedded to match any video processing delay, with full adjustment available for audio/video offset.

The high-density openGear® design allows for up to five 9904-UDX-4K-DSP cards to be installed in one 2RU openGear® frame. Card control/monitoring is available via DashBoard user interface, integrated HTML5 web interface, SNMP, or Cobalt’s RESTful-based Reflex protocol.

REAR MODULES

Note:

• • MADI I/O is available on rev C (or later) hardware with firmware supporting MADI I/O. When enabled ‘MADI In and MADI Out acquire SDI In 6 and SDI Out 5 (respectively) on rear modules that support ‘these I/O. Rear modules that support MADI I/O (“MADI Compatible”) show the MADI port locations ‘that are SDI IN 6 and/or SDI OUT 5 alternatives (as shown in rear module illustrations).
  • 9904-UDX-4K-DSP model does not support SFP ports. SFPs are not supported nor present when ‘using rear modules that show SFP presence on this card model.
