The Cobalt® TOPAZ 9902-2UDX-DI 3G/HD/SD-SDI Dual-Channel De-interlacing Up-Down-Cross-Converter / Frame Sync offers two independent signal paths of up/down/cross conversion (including independent per-path de-interlacing) and frame sync in a single openGear® card. Using our HPF-9000 20-slot frame, this provides up to 40 channels of processing in a single frame. The TOPAZ 9902-2UDX-DI represents a new level of openGear packaging density!
The TOPAZ 9902-2UDX-DI provides high-density that offers unprecedented multi-input support and flexibility. Dual independent up/down/cross convert scalers are specifically designed for broadcast video formats, with full ARC control suitable for conversions to or from 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios. AFD processing can detect an incoming AFD code and correspondingly set scaling and ARC to track with AFD. This processor also allows independent custom ARC to be applied for each incoming AFD code, and set the desired AFD code to be inserted on the output, even if there is no code detected on the input. Bulk and per-channel audio delay controls easily address lip-sync issues.
A convenient input crosspoint can select from up to four SDI inputs to be applied to either of the unit’s two processing paths. The input crosspoint allows manual or failover to alternate inputs on loss of input conditions. With option +ANC, the TOPAZ 9902-2UDX-DI offers full VANC/HANC ancillary data packet de-embedding and embedding.
Preset save/load allows saving custom settings while allowing one-button revert to factory settings. Layered presets allow invoking changes related only to a specific area of concern (audio routing, for example) while not changing any other processing settings or aspects. Full user DashBoard™ or Remote Control Panel remote control allows full status and control access locally or across a standard Ethernet network. GPIO allows direct input routing control and status monitoring.
The TOPAZ 9902-2UDX-DI is also available in stand-alone form factor BBG-1002-2UDX-DI.

Some Rear I/O Modules shown below may also be used for other Cobalt card models. This allows you to re-use rear modules from one card model to another. The Manufacturing Part Number (MPN) shown in the images below is the common code that is used to identify multi-use rear modules. Cross-compatibility can be checked using this number and About Cobalt Rear I/O Modules and Rear Module Cross-Reference at Reference and Help Documents.
Note: Some Rear I/O Modules shown below are equipped with connectors for signals not supported by this card (such as multi-wire balanced audio connections, CVBS I/O, and AES IN). These Rear I/O Modules can be used with the card, however these connections are N/C when used with this card.
