CE certificate the mains cable SDZ16 is a SD 16x16 digital matrix with associated analog audio. The analog audio’s presence does not exclude the possibility of using SD signal’s digital audio (embedded audio). The user has the possibility to save and recall 16 configurations, via keypad and RS232.
Do not remove the cover without unplugging the mains cable. In european countries, SDZ16 requires a 230 Vac 50 Hz power suppling through the mains cable. The socket of the cable must be inserted in the related panel plug on the left at the back of the unit.
SD is usually a 270 Mbit/sec signal (4:2:2 component) as required by ITU-R- 601 normatives, or rather SMPTE 259M. However SDZ16 is able to treat also 143 Mbit/sec (4fsc NTSC), 177 Mbit/sec (4 fsc PAL) and 360 Mbit/sec (4:2:2 widescreen) signals.
