Harris X50-AV-2PS Frame Synchronizer and Converter
Harris continues to set the standard for innovative, top-performing processors with the introduction of the X50™ frame synchronizer and converter. This best-in-class, single-channel platform delivers the exceptional quality and functionality that have come to define the popular and award-winning Harris series of 1RU processors, which also includes the X85™ and X75™.
The X50 is compact and cost-effective, yet feature-rich, offering an array of analog and digital baseband video and audio processing capabilities. This 1RU frame sync/converter effectively and reliably supports standard-definition and high-definition formats, as well as optional 3 Gb/s 1080p Level A and Level B processing, for hybrid television and production systems. With easy-to-use controls, the X50 comes standard with a myriad of features, including color correction, closed caption/teletext capabilities, control and monitoring via a built-in Web server, Active Format Description (AFD) support, two fully controllable Aspect Ratio Converters and 16-channel embedded audio processing. Available options include a fiber input and output plug-in.
The powerful, affordable and energy-efficient X50 processor can easily be incorporated into the workflow of any broadcast environment - from small stations and OB vans to production studios and networks.
