Chapter 1 – Introduction
Overview
OG-4K2HD is an openGear card that down-converts professional 3G-SDI 4K/
UltraHD signals to HD resolution using AJA’s high-quality scaling for cost-effective
monitoring and conversion. OG-4K2HD’s HD-SDI and HDMI outputs are live
simultaneously, producing fantastic-looking HD images for on set monitoring or
direct-to-air broadcast.
OG-4K2HD supports high frame rate (HFR) 4K/UltraHD inputs at 50 and 60fps
and converts to HD outputs at 50 and 60fps for accurate viewing. OG-4K2HD’s
configuration options allow extraction of an HD resolution image from the 4K
input to provide a one-to-one pixel image for 4K focus checks on HD displays.
Designed for use in high-density openGear’s 2RU frames including AJA’s OG-X-FR
2RU frame, new DashBoard Software support on Windows®, macOS® and Linux®
offers remote control and monitoring of the openGear architecture and provides
convenient and industry-standard configuration, monitoring and control options
over a PC or local network.
OG-4K2HD Operating Modes
OG-4K2HD has three working modes: 4K Down-Conversion mode, Non-4K mode,
and Center Cut mode. The first two modes are selected automatically depending
on the input video. These modes can also be manually set using the DashBoard
application.
• 4K Down Conversion mode: If the format of the input video is detected as 4K
or UltraHD format, or the unit is congured by DashBoard, 4K/UltraHD input
video is down-scaled to 2K/HD video and then output on both the HDMI and
the SDI outputs.
• Non-4K mode: If the format of the input video is detected as a non-4K video
source, for example, 720p60, OG-4K2HD will output video that matches the
signal format and resolution of the input signal.
• Center Cut mode: OG-4K2HD will be in Center Cut mode if the input video
is 4K/UltraHD format, and the mode has been enabled through DashBoard.
In this mode the 2K/HD center of 4K/UltraHD input video will be output to
the HDMI and SDI outputs. No down-scaling occurs, and the output format
is either 1920x1080 or 2048x1080 (depending the input source and the 2K
cropping conguration).
OG-4K2HD 4K/UltraHD-SDI to 3G-SDI Down-Converter v1.0 4 www.aja.com
Page 5
Default Operation
The OG-4K2HD auto configures to the connected inputs.
The auto-configure function identifies the connected inputs and generates the
default outputs for the given input. Default operation can be overridden and set
manually using AJA’s DashBoard application.
NOTE: Signal conversion requires the presence of a valid SDI video signal on the SDI IN 1
BNC.
For single SD or HD inputs, BNC input 1 is the default input. For dual-link 1.5Gb
HD inputs, and 4K/UltraHD dual-stream 3Gb SDI inputs, inputs 1 and 2 are
default. Where applicable, both level A and B 3Gb inputs are auto-detected and
supported.
When connecting the OG-4K2HD with multiple SDI inputs in the auto-configure
mode (default), as the user connects the first HD-SDI to input 1, the unit will
output that input as a full screen HD. As soon as the second input is connected,
the unit will know that either QuadHD or 4K x 2160 is present and the display will
change to show the two connected quadrants in the upper left and upper right of
the output. The remaining two quadrants will be displayed as they are connected.
It is possible to use two dual-stream 3G inputs to make 3840 or 4K video. In this
case SDI1 and SDI2 are assumed to be the inputs: SDI1 linkA makes the top left
quadrant, SDI1 linkB makes the top right quadrant, SDI2 linkA makes the lower
left quadrant, and SDI2 linkB makes the lower right quadrant. To use this mode
change the Video Source Selection to ‘2 X SDI 4K’.
Video Output
OG-4K2HD has two output connectors, HDMI and SDI, that are both active
simultaneously.
For 4096x2160 inputs, the OG-4K2HD will output 2048x1080 if 2K crop option is
turned off (through DashBoard), otherwise 4096x2160 inputs will be scaled to
2048x1080, then cropped to 1920x1080. OG-4K2HD will not scale 4096 to 1920
pixels.
The HDMI and SDI output connectors will generally be the same video, with the
exception of non-4K PsF video input.
SDI passthrough is enabled by default if the input video is 2K/HD PsF. In this
case, SDI output is PsF format, and HDMI output is progressive format. The HDMI
output is delayed one frame, compared to the SDI output. The SDI passthrough
can be disabled by DashBoard. If disabled, the SDI output will be progressive
format, the same as HDMI output, with no frame delay.
HDMI and SDI Output Control Differences
Some video output control options are only applicable to HDMI output, such
as color range, sample structure or HDMI/DVI standard. Some options are only
applicable to SDI output, such as Level B control, or PsF passthrough. And some
output control options are applied to both, such as Center Cut.
DashBoard Control
Configuration set via DashBoard is stored in the OG-4K2HD unit through
subsequent power cycles.

Downconvert - Downconverts incoming 4K signal to HD (default setting).
Center Cut - Selects the center portion of the incoming 4K signal for display. No
down-scaling occurs, and the output format is either 1920x1080 or 2048x1080
(depending the input source and the 2K Crop setting.
OG-4K2HD 4K/UltraHD-SDI to 3G-SDI Down-Converter v1.0 19 www.aja.com
Page 20
2K Crop
Choose On or Off. Provides the option of center cutting 2Kx1080 video signals to
make 1920x1080, or center cutting a 4Kx2160 signal to make 1920x1080. Default
is On.
Edge Filtering
Choose On or Off. You can disable edge filtering with this control. This is useful if
you are stitching together multiple images of OG-4K2HD outputs. An example is
using four OG-4K2HDs to view UHD-2 or 8K on a UltraHD/4K or HD monitor. Each
OG-4K2HD downconverts one quarter of the 8K image. Disabling edge filtering
can eliminate the center vertical and horizontal lines that would occur between
the quadrants in that situation. Default setting is On.
Passthrough
Choose Auto, Off, or On (default is Auto). This setting can be used with HD or 2K
psf format input signals. When On, psf format will passthrough to the SDI output
instead of the converted, progressive format signal.
3Gb Mode
Choose Auto (default), 3G-A, or 3G-B.
Progressive to Interlace Enable
Choose Off or On. When On, a 4K/UHD progressive input will be output as a
1920x1080 interlace signal when possible.
More specifically, when Progressive to Interlace is enabled, the OG-4K2HD
converts 4096x2160 or 3840x2160 progressive signals to a 1920x1080 interlace
signal. Crop is automatically applied if the input signal is 4K.
This conversion is functional for the 4K and UHD input formats listed below:

channels are routed at a time. You can choose Ch 1-8 or Ch 9-16 from any SDI
input.
Audio Offset In Frames
Permits time shifting the embedded audio in relationship to the video (for
example, to correct for lip sync problems), in 1/16 of a frame increments. Range is
from -0.8125 video frame to +7.0 video frames. The actual time duration of delay
will vary depending on the frame rate of the format being converted.
Default offset value is 0 frame to match the video delay path, resulting in timealigned audio on the output. Positive offset delays the audio additional frames
(relative to the video output), negative offset advances the audio relative to the
video output.
