Dual Input, Dual Output Analog and Digital Video Format Converter and Scaler
Part Numbers: 999-5690-000 North America, 999-5690-001 International
OVERVIEW
The Vaddio™ UXHD CrossPoint is a dual input, dual output video format converter & scaler, designed to
change an HD/SD/RGBHV analog input signal to HD-SDI/SDI digital output, as well as change an HD-
SDI/SDI digital input to an analog HD/SD/RGBHV video output. The UXHD CrossPoint allows users to easily
convert analog video and HD-SDI/SDI signals for use with Vaddio’s ProductionVIEW HD-SDI camera
controller and switcher or can be used as a stand-alone video converter for a wide variety of applications.
The INS and OUTS of the UXHD CrossPoint
• Input 1: The analog video input can be HD component (YPbPr) up to 1080p/60Hz (with monitor support
for analog 1080p/60), SD video (Y/C and CVBS with adapter cable) or a variety of RGBHV signals.
When converted, the output can be configured as either HD-SDI with video resolutions of up to
1080p/60Hz or standard definition SDI. See the tables on the following pages for all supported
resolutions. In addition, a reference input for Gen Lock is available for synchronizing the HD-SDI/SDI
output to an external switcher.
• Input 2: The HD-SDI/SDI input can support 3Gb/s HD-SDI resolutions up to 1080p/60Hz or SDI. When
converted from HD-SDI or SDI to analog video, the output can be (YPbPr) up to 1080p/60Hz (with
monitor support for analog 1080p/60), SD video (Y/C and CVBS with adapter cable) or RGBHV signals.
• One Input, Dual Output: UXHD CrossPoint can also be used as a signal converter with a loop-thru
output. In this scenario, an HD-SDI or analog signal can be converted and/or scaled to an analog, as
well as an HD-SDI output - one input, two outputs and formats. In addition, both outputs can be
converted to resolutions different from the input signal’s native resolution.
