Digital signal processing
The world is moving into digital broadcasting. And if you're
using the DFS-700A, it's a great start as it will prepare you
for any requirement. Digital broadcasting depends on digital
component signals which is why the DFS-700A is built
around full digital component processing from input to
output at 4:2:2:4 (video and key). In this way, the DFS-700A
BRIDGE to Digital
Wide range of inputs and outputs including SDI
Whether analog or digital, the DFS-700A accommodates a
wide range of signal input/ output requirements. The system
comes with eight standard inputs — four SDI
component. With the optional BKDF-701 or BKDF-702
boards, you can add eight or four inputs, making the total
number of inputs 16 or 12 respectively, any eight of which
can be freely assigned to the control panel. Four SDI and
four analog component inputs are added with the BKDF-701,
No need for external A/D converters
Some digital equipment require expensive and cumbersome
external analog-to-digital/digital-to-analog converters. But
that's something you never have to worry about with the
DFS-700A. Just take out your analog switcher and drop in
The perfect companion for Sony digital VTRs and servers
Maybe you're considering digital production system with
DVCAM, Betacam SX, MPEG IMX or Digital Betacam
recorders or the Sony MAV-555A Multi-Access Video Disk
Recorder. And whichever format you choose, the DFS-700A
will complement it perfectly. With this unit, you get full
compatibility with analog machines, plus superb component
delivers the quality you'll need for digital television
broadcasting, digital satellite, DVD and a variety of video
content creation. The built-in chroma keyer and downstream
keyer offer full digital signal processing to satisfy the most
demanding production needs.
