FOR-A is to excite visitors to Broadcast Asia 2024 with its unrivalled leadership in Ultra HD over 12G-SDI. Demonstrations and presentations will focus on live production and will also show the way for seamless transitions to IP connectivity for media.
   

Taking centre stage is the very capable and operator-friendly HVS-6000 production switcher. The unit provides 12G-SDI capability on all inputs and outputs (80 inputs/32 outputs or 64 inputs/48 outputs), with an optional board-mounting connector allowing IP interfaces to be mounted on all I/O slots. The result is a production switcher with three M/Es and four keyers per M/E, providing all the flexibility and creative power for the largest television shows. For studios that are in the transition phase, the switcher allows up-conversion from HD to 4K on all inputs, with down-conversion on all aux outputs.

Also showcased on the booth will be other examples of the way that FOR-A technology can deliver the complete infrastructure for HD and 4K; SDI and IP. The FA-1616 software-defined signal processing platform seamlessly bridges the gap between SDI and IP workflows, provides frame synchronisation for up to 32 channels, plus colour correction and audio remapping. The FA-9600 multi-purpose signal processor offers 4 synchronisation modes, flexible timecode management, high-quality conversion, versatile video and audio I/O, and conversion between standard colour space and HDR and wide colour gamut. The compact 1RU FA-1616 and FA-9600 are ideal standalone solutions for master control, outside broadcasts and many other applications.
