OpenGear Cards
OpenGear® is the industry-standard platform of choice for modular signal processing. OpenGear systems are built by the user, starting with a compatible frame and then adding individual cards with specific functions to suit your needs. These cards can then easily be swapped as needed. Cobalt Digital was among the first to adopt the OpenGear philosophy and incorporate it into many of its products. Whatever your need, Cobalt Digital has created a card for your application, like SDI Video Conversion, HDMI Audio Embedding and De-embedding, Analog Video and Audio Amps and Splitters, and more! For any solution you may need, Cobalt Digital has you covered.
