ZeeVee HDBridge HDb620 - Modular HD MPEG2 Encoder / QAM Modulator
HDbridge Modules
Modular HD MPEG2 Encoder / QAM Modulator
HDb620- 1080p / 1080i / 720p / 480p / 480i
Mix and Match modules as needed
Each HDbridge module connects to a satellite or cable receiver or other component video source and converts that signal in an HD digital cable (QAM) channel that can be received by any HDTV over standard coax wiring.
Key Features
· Modules come in three resolutions – optimize value by matching the native resolution of your sources, connected by high-resolution component video (Y, Pr, Pb) connections.
· Future Resolution Upgrade – HDb420 (480p) can be firmware upgraded in the future to 720p for a small fee. Save money today and upgrade only when content is upgraded from SD to HD.
· DVD Quality at 480 – with component video, even SD (480) sources deliver stunning DVD performance and full digital quality while respecting content broadcast requirements.
· Digital Audio – Dolby AC-3 pass-through or PCM encoding.
· Select broadcast channel via a simple front-panel interface – up and running in minutes.
· Integrated Closed Caption support – required for ADA compliance in many applications.
