FA-9600 - Overview

Provides HDR and Wide Color Gamut support. Offers exceptional conversion format delivery, including 12G, 4K(UHD), 1080p and HD/SD.
Each of the FOR-A FA-9600 processor's two HD/SD inputs includes a frame synchronizer. Because the signal processor features 12G-SDI terminals, optional software opens the door to 4K(UHD) production. Adding an optional expansion card provides four more channels of 3G-SDI input/output or six channels of 12G-SDI distributed output.

Applications
The FA-9600 is much more than a basic frame synchronizer. It simplifies all types of video conversion. A newly developed color processing circuit supports the latest gamut and dynamic range specifications, and an optional converter circuit is available for up/down/cross conversion. Offering a wide range of audio processing, core features of remapping and gain adjustment, the FA-9600 can be expanded with optional cards that make it an ideal standalone solution at transmission centers, in mobile production trucks, production studios, news stations, and other nonlinear editing and playout production environments.

  • Features:

    • Supports and converts between the broad ITU-R BT.2020 gamut for 4K/8K and the conventional ITU-R BT.709 gamut in HD.
    • Compensates for differences among external devices using EOTF/OETF corresponding to various HDR or SDR curves.
    • EOTF/OETF log curves and gamut can be registered from a PC.
    • Dynamic range conversion compatible with HLG, PQ, SDR, and other log curves. Also compatible with S-Log, Canon Log, and other camera log curves.
    • Using FA-96AHDR Advanced Function Software option, processor is compatible with ITU-R BT.2100-compliant dynamic range conversion.
    • Dual channel frame synchronization, via two SDI inputs and four outputs. Able to switch between two modes to suit the application.
    • Simultaneous 4K/HD mode: Use two internal paths for 4K and HD. Single-channel up/down conversion
    • Dual HD mode: Use two internal HD paths. Dual-channel up/down conversion
    • Extensive professional video format support: 12G/6G conversion
    • Connectivity with a broad range of equipment; Also equipped with HDMI ports
