Introduction, cont'd
The ISS receives and outputs the stereo audio on 5-pole captive screw connectors.
The audio can be switched with cross fading (that is, the previous audio channel
fades out and then the new audio channel fades in).
For upscaling, the ISS 506 converts the horizontal and vertical sync timing and the
number of lines of the lower-resolution video input to match the native resolution
of the display. This produces an undistorted, brighter picture than an unscaled
input would.
For downscaling, the ISS 506 accepts any computer resolution up to 1600 x 1200,
with horizontal scan rates up to 100 kHz and vertical scan rates up to 120 Hz. The
ISS converts the input to match the native resolution of the display.
The switcher is ideal for displaying images on projectors with limited display
resolutions, such as LCD projectors, DLP projectors, plasma projectors, and (with
an optional DVI board) a DVI display or projector.
The switcher features built-in test patterns to aid in monitor or projector setup and
evaluation.
The switcher is housed in a rack-mountable, 2U high, 17.5" wide, metal enclosure.
The ISS has an internal 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 45 watts autoswitchable
power supply that provides worldwide power compatibility.

based on the board installed:
• DVI board — The ISS outputs a single loop of DVI-D on a DVI connector.
The DVI output resolution follows the program output.
• HD-SDI board — The ISS outputs an HD-SDI video signal, 1080i or 720p,
on a BNC connector.
• Scan converter board — The ISS outputs a scan-converted video signal
(low resolution RGsB, component video, S-video, or composite video) on
three BNC connectors.
