HDX6800+BC8D

Auto-Sensing HD/SD-SDI Demultiplexer with 8 AES Outputs, Q-SEE™-Compliant

THIS PRODUCT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED AND AVAILABILITY IS BASED ON EXISTING INVENTORY.

PLEASE CONTACT YOUR HARRIS SALES REPRESENTATIVE FOR AVAILABILITY.

The HDX6800+BC8 HD/SD audio demultiplexer de-embeds 8 AES audio signals, in both balanced and unbalanced formats, and Dolby® metadata from a single 1.5 Gb/s HD or 270 Mb/s SD video stream. Following SMPTE 299M and 272M specifications, HDX6800+BC8 de-embeds up to four groups (eight AES) of audio signals from an HD-SDI or SD-SDI stream, with a DARS input to provide AES-11 compliance.

HDX6800+BC8 modules auto-detect between HD-SDI and SD-SDI signals with full channel selection per HD or SD signal. Built-in video and audio processing amplifiers allow for full control over the picture and sound.

Each HDX6800+BC8 includes a module-specific breakout cable that expands the number of available connections beyond what would fit on a standard two-slot back connector. The breakout cable includes an RS-422/RS-232 serial connector to de-embed Dolby® metadata.

HDX6800+BC8 modules can be controlled at the card edge, or controlled and monitored via CCS Navigator™ software applications, HTTP web browser, NUCLEUS™ hardware control panels, or via third-party control applications using SNMP. When housed in an FR6802+QXFE frame, advanced Q-SEE™ monitoring technology from Harris enables direct thumbnail monitoring of the output video via the integrated frame Ethernet port.
