About the DSC HD-HD 4K Plus A Series
The Extron DSC HD-HD 4K Plus A and DSC HD-HD Plus A xi are high performance,
HDCP 2.2-compliant scalers capable of converting between HDMI resolutions up to 4K @
60 Hz with full 4:4:4 signal processing. They feature HDMI 2.0 connections that support
data rates up to 18 Gbps, and incorporate the Extron-exclusive Vector 4K scaling engine,
specifically engineered for critical-quality 4K applications. Both models support 4K @
60 Hz signals at 4:4:4 on a single connection, with the DSC HD-HD 4K Plus A xi also
supporting 4K @ 60 Hz signals as columns using two connections. The scalers feature
on-screen displays, stereo audio embedding and de-embedding, internal test patterns,
and the ability to display custom images and logos for on-screen corporate branding and
messaging. Remote configuration is available via USB and Ethernet, while external control
is available through RS-232 and Ethernet.
The Vector 4K scaling engine provides high-performance scaling with 30-bit precision
processing and 4:4:4 color sampling, as well as downscaling of 4K source signals for
interoperability with lower resolution displays or system components.
The DSC HD-HD 4K Plus A Series provides deinterlacing of all interlaced signals up to
1080i, Deep Color processing, and automatic 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection, and are
compatible with all DVI or HDMI display devices.
Audio integration capabilities include discrete, selectable analog and digital audio muting,
input gain and attenuation, and output volume control. They also include a two-channel
analog audio input for embedding audio onto the HDMI output and a two-channel
analog audio output for sending de-embedded audio to a sound system or other audio
destination.
Both models are housed in 1U high by one-half rack wide by 9.5 inches (24 cm) deep
enclosures and can be rack or furniture mounted.
