he ADVC G1 A from Grass Valley, a Belden
Brand, is a compact and competitively priced
T
converter, designed to convert and/or upconvert/downconvert professional/broadcast signals
to HD/SD-SDI, supporting the latest 3G technology.
The ADVC G1 A will convert sources from HDMI,
DVI, component, composite, S-Video, digital audio
and analog audio to HD/SD-SDI (3G/1.5G support).
The converter can be synchronized with a house
reference video signal (auto detected HD tri-level/
SD blackburst) to ensure clean signal processing.
The AVDC G1 A can also be used as an audio
embedder.
