The 8995UDX is a compact, broadcast-quality,
fiber-ready, up/down/crossconverter and
synchronizer. Conversion is of the highest
quality in all modes, with pixel-adaptive motion
processing. In addition, the 8995UDX provides
the most robust signal handling with the low
hysteresis synchronizer, redundant reference,
and perfect-picture mode of the 8985FS.
It is fully featured with color-space conversion
and a powerful video proc. amp that includes
RGB color correction with gamma and
component adjustments with clip level controls
on either HD or SD video. The user can also
control hue, chroma, and luma similar to a
traditional analog proc. amp.
Powerful embedded audio handling includes
channel-level and Dolby E stream routing. PCM
audio processing eliminates the clicks caused
by the video synchronizer dropping or repeating
frames and hot upstream video switching.
VITC conversion and Closed Captioning are
supported for same frame-rate conversions.
One of three types of optional SFP fiber optic
submodules can be installed in the fiber optic
rear cage connector to provide two fiber
inputs (Dual Receiver), two fiber outputs (Dual
Transmitter), or one fiber input and one fiber
output (Transceiver).
Refer to the rear module pinout and the block
diagram on the next page.
Synchronizing mode = in Minimum Delay Mode
(synchronous input): Nominal: 1 frame (±1 pixel)
User-adjustable range: 1 frame to 2 frames minus 5
lines
Additional adjustable delay: 0 to 6 additional frames
Conversion
Method: Motion adaptive
3:2/2:2 cadence: Automatic detection
Input: 1080i or 480i @ 59.94 Hz, 1080p @ 23.98,
1080sf @ 23.98 or 720p @ 59.94 Hz
Output choices: 1080i or 480i @ 59.94 Hz, 1080p
@ 23.98, 1080sf @ 23.98 or 720p @ 59.94 Hz
Input: 1080i or 576i @ 50 Hz or 720p @ 50 Hz

Aspect Ratio Conversion
Conversion modes: 1:1, letterbox, pillarbox,
anamorphic, 14:9
Synchronization (Genlock):
• Standard frame bus genlock or external reference if
genlock submodule is installed (NOTE: at least one
module per frame must have genlock submodule)
• Adjustment: 0 to 1 frame in 1 SD pixel steps
Timecode and Closed Caption
VITC timecode and Closed Caption SD to HD or HD to
SD translation: same frame rate and output line select
for VITC and Closed Caption. NOTE: VITC and CC may
not work accurately in 23.98 Hz 3:2 pulldown from
higher frame rate conversion
Control And Monitoring
SNMP: Yes
Web page configuration: Yes
Local configuration: No

Applications
• Where incoming feeds may be in either
1080, 720, or SD formats
• For live production where low latency
conversion is required
• For conversion of signals with embedded
audio
Ordering Information
This module can be mounted in a GeckoFlex
frame but not in other 8900 series frames
including Gecko-A or Gecko-V frames. As this
module has no card-edge controls and in order
to configure this module an 8900NET (Net Card)
Network Interface module is required.

module and dual wide rear module set
8900GEN-SM
Genlock submodule. This submodule mounts to the
front module to provide reference input for the module
and frame reference bus. This is required for frame
synchronizing operation.
