For-A America MV-1620HSA

4K-Compatible, 16 Channels of Input, Dual-Screen Output High Performance With Better Energy Efficiency

The MV-1620HSA is a compact (1U) multi-viewer that accepts up to 16 channels of mixed 3G/HD/SD-SDI or analog composite signals for monitoring on one or two screens. It can be cascaded with other units to display up to 64 sources at once. Full-featured, the unit offers a customizable window layout. View audio levels and use AFD-compatible cropping or information display as needed.

Versatile Mixed-Source Environment

Supports mixed signals as required, from 3G-SDI (Level A/B), HD-SDI, SD-SDI, or analog composite sources. Asynchronous input is also supported. The viewer accepts an array of formats and frame rates including NTSC, PAL, 1080/59.94i and 1080/50i. (No frame rate conversion.)

Layout Manager

Includes a Windows application for managing the layout. Customize the layout on a computer by registering or changing layout patterns, adjusting title display, and configuring other settings as needed. Store up to 16 layout patterns on the viewer. Saved layouts can be applied directly from the front panel control.
