YAMAHA BRINGS DEMULTIPLEXER CARD TO NAB

HD-SDI (Serial Digital Interface) is a format widely used with HDTV, normally transmitting one channel of uncompressed HDTV video and 16 channels of PCM audio signals (four groups of four channels) along with time code and other related data via a router.

The unit has eight selectable channels (two groups of four channels) of the 16 channels of audio in HD-SDI. By using the MY8 SDI card, 8 channels of embedded audio can be easily extracted and passed through without the need for a router. The card can synchronize to either video or audio signals, and mode selection is enabled by an eight-way DIP switch as well as a pair of LED status indicators.

The MY8-SDI card is available and carries an MSRP of $3,199.
