DESCRIPTION

The Extron DSC HD‑HD is a compact high performance, HDCP-compliant scaler that converts between HDMI resolutions and frame rates. It accepts video from 480i up to 1920x1200, 1080p, and 2K, and offers high performance upscaling and downscaling with multiple output rates up to 1920x1200, including 1080p/60 and 2K. The DSC HD‑HD features advanced Extron video signal processing with deinterlacing of signals up to 1080i, and Deep Color processing. It includes many integrator-friendly features such as on‑screen display, test patterns, and EDID Minder®. The DSC HD‑HD is ideal for applications that require scaling HDMI video to match the different capabilities and requirements of sources, displays, codecs, and other equipment. The compact form factor allows simple integration at a source, destination, or in a distribution system.

High Performance Video Processing
The DSC HD-HD provides high performance deinterlacing of all interlaced signals up to 1080i, and Deep Color processing to deliver optimal image quality. Automatic 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection maximizes image quality for content sources originating from film. Additionally, the color space and chroma subsampling of the HDMI output can be automatically set to ensure compatibility with a connected DVI or HDMI display.

Selectable FILL and FOLLOW modes are also available to ensure the proper aspect ratio of the output. FILL mode provides full screen output, while FOLLOW mode preserves the original aspect ratio of the input signal.

Multiple Options for Control and Operation
The DSC HD-HD features front panel controls for quick access to functions. Remote configuration and control are available via USB. The on-screen menus provide control over the unit's functions and settings, including quick access to key parameters such as HDCP status and embedded audio format. Additionally, LED indicators on the front panel provide visual confirmation of input and output signal format, and signal presence. The DSC HD-HD is housed in a 1" (2.5 cm), quarter rack width metal enclosure and can be easily integrated into a variety of environments.

Features
* HDMI video cross conversion — The DSC HD‑HD provides high quality scaling and conversion of HDMI video resolutions and frame rates.
* Input: One HDMI
* Output: One HDMI
* Accepts HDMI video from 480i up to 1920x1200, 1080p/60, and 2K — The DSC HD‑HD is compatible with standard definition and high resolution video.
* Advanced scaling engine with 30‑bit precision processing and motion-adaptive deinterlacing for signals up to 1080i — Image scaling and video format conversion are performed at 30‑bit precision for enhanced color accuracy and picture detail. Advanced deinterlacing for all interlaced signals up to 1080i delivers optimized image quality.
* Selectable output rates from 640x480 to 1920x1200, including 1080p/60 and 2K — Available output rates include computer and video up to 1920x1200, including 1080p/60 and 2K.
* HDCP compliant — Ensures display of content-protected media and interoperability with other HDCP-compliant devices
* User-selectable HDCP authorization — Allows the unit to appear HDCP compliant or non-HDCP compliant to the connected source, which is beneficial if the source automatically encrypts all content when connected to an HDCP-compliant device. Protected material is not passed in non-HDCP mode.
* Supported HDMI specification features include data rates up to 6.75 Gbps, Deep Color, and HD lossless audio formats
* EDID Minder® automatically manages EDID communication between connected devices — EDID Minder ensures that the source powers up properly and reliably outputs content for display.
* Aspect ratio control — The aspect ratio of the video output can be controlled by selecting a FILL mode, which provides a full screen output, or a FOLLOW mode, which preserves the original aspect ratio of the input signal.
* HDCP authentication and signal presence confirmation — Provides real-time verification of HDCP status for the digital video input and output. This allows for simple, quick, and easy signal and HDCP verification through front panel LEDs or USB, providing valuable feedback to a system operator or helpdesk support staff.
* HDCP Visual Confirmation provides a green signal when encrypted content is sent to a non-compliant display — A full-screen green signal is sent when HDCP-encrypted content is transmitted to a non‑HDCP compliant display, providing immediate visual confirmation that protected content cannot be viewed on the display.
* HDMI to DVI Interface Format Correction — Automatically enables or disables embedded audio and InfoFrames, and sets the correct color space for proper connection to HDMI and DVI displays.
* Front panel LED indicators for signal presence, HDCP status, audio format, and power — Provides visual indication of system status for real-time feedback and monitoring of key performance parameters.
* On‑screen menus — Intuitive on‑screen menus allow for easy system setup using the front panel controls. Key parameters such as input and output video formats are conveniently grouped on the initial Quick Setup screen, while additional screens provide full control over the unit's other functions and settings.
* Output Standby Mode — The unit can be set to automatically mute video and sync output to the display device when no active input signal is detected. This allows the projector or flat-panel display to automatically enter into standby mode to save energy and enhance lamp or panel life.
* Automatic 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection — Advanced film mode processing techniques that help maximize image quality for NTSC, PAL, and 1080i sources that originated from film.
* Internal video test patterns and pink noise generator for calibration and setup — The unit offers several video test patterns and audio pink noise to facilitate proper system setup and calibration of display devices.
* Front panel security lockout — This feature locks out all front panel functions; all functions however, are available through USB.
* Front panel USB configuration port — Enables easy configuration without having to access the rear panel.
* New JITC Certified — Successfully completed interoperability and information assurance testing for use in government applications and other mission-critical environments.
* Easy setup and commissioning with Extron's PCS - Product Configuration Software — Conveniently configure multiple products using a single software application.
* 1" (2.5 cm) high, quarter rack width metal enclosure
* Includes LockIt® HDMI cable lacing bracket
* Highly reliable, energy-efficient external universal power supply included, replacement part #70‑775‑01 — Provides worldwide power compatibility, with high demonstrated reliability and low power consumption for reduced operating costs.
