30 8941 Component Digital Video Monitoring Distribution Amplifier
Key Features
•Passive differential loop-through design adds flexibility and reliability to system
•Four NTSC/PAL analog composite outputs and four serial component digital outputs
•Ancillary data and audio detection
•Auto format detection (525/625)
•Front panel LEDs indicate line count, EQ warning, and ancillary audio/data presence
•Remote health monitoring
The 8941 monitoring DA supports up to four NTSC or PAL encoded monitor outputs for picture viewing, in addition to four reclocked serial component digital outputs. The 8941 is tailored specifically for 270 Mb/s serial component digital signals, both 525 and 625 formats. In addition to a composite video monitoring output, the 8941 also indicates via
front panel LED whether either ancillary data or audio is embedded in the signal.
