The HDSDI to DVI Scaler is the newest revision of our HDSDI conversion line incorporating SH/HDSDI Single or Dual link mode conversion scaled to Full Single link DVI-D. Resolutions of up to 1080p are supported over the DVI link for those that want true "High Definition". Performance has been greatly enhanced due to Gennum's VXP Scaler onboard; allowing for new features such as: Color & Gamma Correction, Noise Reduction, Detail Enhancement, Aspect Ratio Selection, Pattern Generator Mode, & Multiple Language Menu Support. Bottom Line? -- More performance, less cost.

SDI
SDI (serial digital interface), used primarily in broadcasting, converts and transmits digital video through SDI connectors. It enables video sources to process high definition, high quality video.

How it works
HD-SDI devices are connected to the HD-SDI input and DVI devices are connected to the DVI output. When the source, display and the Scaler are powered and connected, video signals are converted to the proper format
