For-A will introduce the HVS-350HS HD/SD 1.5 M/E Digital Video Switcher at the 2010 NAB Show in April. It provides eight inputs and outputs standard, which can be expanded to 24 inputs and 12 outputs.
HD/SD-SDI I/O is standard, though a variety of other formats can be installed to support analog video and PC sources. Its 10-bit processor supports 1080i, 720p, NTSC and PAL formats. Built-in frame synchronizers on each input and a resizing engine on four inputs allows asynchronous signals – including HD, SD, analog and PC signals – to be switched in the same program. It will be available in July 2010.
