OVERVIEW

The Evertz HD2014, HD2012 and HD2011 are high performance multi-path 1RU video conversion,
frame synchronization and decoder platforms. The HD2014 integrates four independent paths of video
processing. An internal router up-stream of the conversion engines allows each path to be fed from
any of the device inputs. Each processing path includes full frame sync and up/down/cross conversion
capabilities in addition to noise reduction and video proc capabilities. Optional MPEG2 and H.264 flex
modules allow the HD2014/12/11 series to accept ASI input signals and generate decoded base-band
video that can then be sent to conversion engines*. The HD2012 integrates two independent paths of
processing. Each path can be fed from different device inputs. The HD2011 has the same capabilities
as the HD2012 except that both processing paths must be fed from the same input video signal.
The processing power of the HD2014/12/11 series in combination with their simple to use front panels
make them ideal choices for utility conversion and decoding applications within facilities, ENG/DSNG
truck or mobile environments. The HD2014/12/11 series can support up to 4x coax HD/SD/ASI serial
inputs, 4x fiber optic HD/SD/ASI serial inputs, four composite analog video inputs, 4x or 8x mono
analog audio inputs and 8x AES digital audio inputs**. Analog video inputs are processed using 12 bit
A/D converters and use 3D video decoding technology. DVI inputs (720p and 1080p) can also be
supported. 1080p DVI inputs are automatically interlaced to 1080i.
The HD2014/12/11 series can support up to 4x coax HD/SD serial digital outputs, four fiber optic
HD/SD serial digital outputs, four composite analog video outputs, eight or four mono analog audio
outputs and eight AES digital audio outputs**. DVI outputs (720p and 1080i) can also be supported. A
reference input is available to allow these units to lock to an external reference. SNMP control and
monitoring is supported using the 10/100 Ethernet port. An integrated four input multi-image display is
available as an ordering option*.
These Evertz converters are packaged in a space saving 1RU form factor and have local front panel
control capabilities. Quick access hot keys for each processing channel are available on the front
panel to enable easy changes to core processing parameters. Eight (8) front panel "HOT KEY
MACROS" can be programmed with user controls to enable multi-parameter sets with a single button
push. The HD2014/12/11 series can be ordered with dual AC power supplies. The HD2014 series can
also support operation from externally supplied +12V DC power supply (1x AC inlet and 1x DC inlet
supported)*.
* Future function. Contact Evertz for pricing and availability information.
