Through a new set of expansion modules, the VIO 4K goes beyond its conversion capabilities to become the first multi-format converter that simultaneously supports 4K60 4:4:4, DisplayPort 1.2 and 12G-SDI. AV professionals are now free to choose how they would like to equip their VIO 4K depending on the interfaces and features they really need.
Designed to provide flexibility, the VIO 4K stretches the limits of image quality while providing true 4K60 4:4:4 to fit with the increasing 4K demand. By utilizing the new expansion module especially designed for Analog Way's multi-format converter, professionals can now benefit from the best of the VIO 4K, experience the highest image quality and thus enhance the quality of their content.
"Analog Way is proud to offer the most powerful conversion tool with its ability to output up to 26 million pixels," the company says. "The optional interfaces also increase the many different possible applications of the VIO 4K. With all options, the VIO 4K features up to 9 inputs and 3 independently scaled outputs, making Analog Way the first manufacturer to offer a multiformat converter with this number of independent outputs, including two in 4K60 4:4:4.. In terms of configuration, the three outputs provide a wide flexibility in order to reach more creative displays while using 4K displays. Not only does it enable the user to process one source simultaneously to the 3 outputs at any given moment, but it also allows the user to configure each video delivery of the selected source such as scaling, resolution, or colour settings."
The new set includes a module that is able to support Dante technology in order to input/output up to 8 audio channels from/to a Dante audio network. Equipped with the Dante interface, the VIO 4K makes it easier to extract any kind of audio content from a video signal to integrate into a network and vice versa. As audio and video content are processed separately, audio content can be easily adjusted.
