The Extron RGB-HDMI 300 A
is a high performance RGB and stereo audio to HDMI scaler that converts
incoming analog component video and RGBHV signals to HDMI signals. It
accepts HDTV and high resolution computer-video signals up to 1920x1200,
and offers multiple output rates up to 1920x1200, including HDTV
1080p/60. The RGB-HDMI 300 A also offers audio embedding so that analog
audio input signals can be digitized into the scaled HDMI output. It is
housed in a compact, low-profile enclosure for placement behind
flat-panel displays, and offers several features for streamlining
integration and enhancing system operation, including Auto Input Memory,
Auto-Image™ setup, and RS-232 serial control.
The
RGB-HDMI 300 A is ideal for various applications where newer
consumer-based displays, equipped only with HDMI inputs, are to be used
with sources that output analog RGB, or in an environment with an
existing analog RGB and audio signal distribution infrastructure. It can
also be used in systems where consolidation of various source signals
to a single, common output resolution is desired. For example, the
RGB-HDMI 300 A can be installed at the output of a switcher, with its
HDMI output feeding the display.
In addition to high performance
scaling, the RGB-HDMI 300 A includes several integrator-friendly
features for expediting setup and system operation. An on-screen display
facilitates display of information pertaining to the incoming signal
and adjustment of picture settings, including positioning, size, zoom,
brightness, contrast, and detail. Internal test patterns are available
for calibration and setup. Configurations can be conveniently saved and
recalled from up to three memory presets from the front panel, and up to
16 additional presets through RS-232 serial control.
With Auto
Input Memory, the RGB-HDMI 300 A automatically stores image settings for
each new incoming signal. When the signal is recognized again from a
newly connected source, image settings are automatically restored.
Auto-Image, a feature common to many Extron scalers and signal
processors, allows for quick and easy setup of incoming analog RGB
signals.
The RGB-HDMI 300 A features RS-232 serial control with
front and rear ports. It is housed in a 1" high, half rack width
enclosure that allows for discreet installation, such as behind a flat
panel display or above a projector.
