AJA FS4 4-Channel 12G-SDI/1-Channel UHD 4K Frame Synchronizer/Converter
AJA FS4 4-Channel 12G-SDI/1-Channel UHD 4K Frame Synchronizer/Converter
AJA FS4 4-Channel 12G-SDI/1-Channel UHD 4K Frame Synchronizer/Converter. Convert and synchronize up to UHD 4K video with audio with the FS4 4-Channel 12G-SDI & 1-Channel UHD 4K Frame Synchronizer/Converter from AJA. This 1 RU matrix synchronizer can operate in single-channel mode for UHD 4K processing, scaling, and cross conversion to various 2K/HD/SD formats, and it can also operate in four-channel mode where it can process, scale, and cross convert up to four video signals simultaneously between 2K/HD/SD formats. In single-channel mode, you can upscale HD or SD video to and from UHD 4K as well as converting multiple channels of audio over 3G-SDI, AES, and MADI in a wide-ranging matrix.
In four-channel mode, you can simultaneously convert and scale up to four 2K/HD and SD video signals. Features include scaling, color correction, proc amp controls, motion adaptive deinterlacing, and more. The unit has four 12G/6G/3G-SDI inputs and four 12G/6G/3G-SDI outputs, reference loop input/output, GPI input, DB-25 AES/MADI audio input and output, 3G-SDI and HDMI monitor output, MADI input and output, analog audio input and output, and Gigabit Ethernet for LAN management.

The unit also allows you to add a separately available fiber SFP unit for additional inputs and outputs. Its redundant power supply allows you to keep the unit running if one power source fails.
- Single-channel mode provides a full suite of 4K/UltraHD processing and up, down, cross conversion to and from 2K, HD, or SD
- Four-channel mode offers 4 x 2K/HD/SD channels of simultaneous conversion and processing, all within a 1 RU chassis for multichannel high-density delivery
- Panel design provides straightforward operation in single- or four-channel mode
- Legacy signals and archival material need to be integrated into the 4K environment
- 4K sources need to be down-converted for current 2K/HD pipelines
- Supports up, down, cross conversion from SD, HD, or 2K over 12G/6G/3G-SDI video to 4K or UltraHD video and back
- Supports both Quadrant (Square Division) and 2SI (Two Sample Interleave) output formats
- Hardware conversion technology ensures better image quality for your productions
- Utilizes standard BNC as well as optional SFP inputs and outputs to integrate easily into a variety of workflows and facilities with support for SDI workflows all the way up to 12G
- BNC inputs and outputs accept 4K/UltraHD/2K/HD/SD resolution SDI signals in single-channel mode
- 2K/HD/SD inputs can be routed to multiple locations simultaneously without the need for any external signal distribution in four-channel mode
- Looping reference input allows the synchronizer to be locked to your house reference signal for rock-solid stability
- Digital audio can be disembedded and embedded between SDI, MADI, and AES for an array of routing possibilities
