AJA Corvid 44 12G 8-Lane PCIe 3.0 I/O Card
Take command of the most
challenging projects using the immense power of the newest member of the
Corvid product line. AJA Corvid 44 12G is AJA’s blazingly fast, compact
8-lane PCIe 3.0 I/O card with four bidirectional 12G-SDI HD BNC connections,
designed for today’s most demanding video and audio workflows.
Whether you are working with HFR 8K/4K/UltraHD, 2K/HD, SD, Deep Color and/or
HDR, experience the quality and peace of mind that Corvid 44 12G brings to
your world. Supporting 10-bit 4:2:2 and 4:4:4, or even 12-bit* color spaces
for pristine imagery, Corvid 44 12G allows the flexibility to ingest and
output with 12G/6G/3G-SDI. The bidirectional 12G-SDI ports provide immense
flexibility for capture and simultaneous pass-through for a range of
solutions.
*Application dependent
12G-SDI,
Multi-Format PCIe I/O Card
Corvid 44 12G boasts
four bidirectional 12G-SDI spigots with a Reference Input. 8K Input or
Output is possible using quad 12G-SDI cables and 4K/UltraHD I/O can be
achieved with either a single 12G-SDI or 6G-SDI cable, or quad 3G-SDI
cables. 2K/HD I/O can be achieved with a single 3G-SDI cable, or dual link
1.5G-SDI, while allowing capture and monitoring via SDI to take place
simultaneously.
The CORVID 44 12G family also includes models for
active vs. passive cooling, RS422 on PCIe bracket vs. card header, and
HD-BNC vs. full-size BNC connectors.
Flexible Frame
Rate Support
Corvid 44 12G supports
8K (8192 x 4320) and UltraHD2 (7680 x 4320) High Frame Rate (HFR) workflows
up to 50/60p for the most demanding applications. Film rates of 23.98, 24,
47.95 and 48p are also supported across 8K, 4K, and 2K.
High frame
rates are not limited to 8K and UltraHD2 with Corvid 44 12G, multiple 4K,
UltraHD, 1080p and 720p HD inputs and outputs are also supported at frame
rates up to 50/60p, making Corvid 12G extremely flexible for your current
and future needs
Hardware
Keying
The built-in hardware
downstream keyer allows graphics and images to be easily overlaid on the
input video in real time.
LTC and
Reference Input
Corvid 44 12G provides
one external, switchable LTC/Reference Input connection on the back of the
card. A second LTC input is available on an internal header for providing
additional reference to Corvid 44 12G.
RS-422
A built-in RS-422
connection is available either as an external connection on the full-sized
Corvid 44 12G or as an internal connection on the low profile Corvid 44 12G.
RS-422 allows control of external devices for frame accurate ingest and
layoffs.
