The UpDownCross 100G is an 8-channel broadcast standards converter with native SMPTE-2110 connections over 100G Ethernet. It converts up to 8 separate channels of SD, HD and Ultra HD video to any other standard simultaneously, and because one 100G port carries all 8 inputs and 8 outputs, a single connection handles every channel. The 1RU design uses quiet front-to-back cooling and carries redundant 100G QSFP28 connections for full SMPTE-2022-7 protection switching, backed by dual redundant AC power supplies and a separate 1G NMOS control port with PTP v2 timing. Standards run from 525i59.94 NTSC and 625i50 PAL through to 2160p60, including 1080p47.95 and 48 and their Ultra HD equivalents, processed as 10-bit 4:2:2 YUV with 16 channels of embedded audio per 2110 IP stream at 48 kHz and 24-bit. A built-in 2.2 inch LCD with search dial, speaker and 6.35mm headphone jack handle front-panel monitoring, with USB-C for configuration and firmware updates.
