AJA Corvid 88 High Intensity I/O Card
Maximize your video
and audio I/O capacity with AJA Corvid 88. Configure each SDI connection
individually as input or output and mix formats for up to eight HD or SD
channels on a single card. As demand rises for higher resolutions, combine
SDI connections for multiple 4K/UltraHD channels allowing incredible
flexibility and future proofing with playout and ingest servers or
channel-in-a-box systems.
Multi-Stream,
Multi-Format PCIe I/O Card
Corvid 88 allows AJA
Developer Partner applications to access up to eight simultaneous input and
output streams on a single PCIe card, making it perfect for ingest and
playout servers as well as channel-in-a-box systems.
High Density
Ingest and Output
Each BNC connection on
Corvid 88 can be set programmatically as either an input or output and each
can support a different video format, provided all format use the same clock
timing. Connections can also be linked together to support dual link or
4K/UltraHD formats.
High Frame
Rate Support
Corvid 88 supports 4K
(4096 x 2160) and UltraHD (3840 x 2160) High Frame Rate (HFR) workflows.
Working at frame rates of 48p, 50p and 60p ensure smooth motion for the most
demanding 4K and UltraHD applications.
High frame rates are not
limited to 4K and UltraHD with Corvid 88, multiple 720p and 1080p HD inputs
and outputs are also supported at frame rates up to 50p and 60p, making
Corvid 88 extremely flexible for your current and future needs.
LTC and
Reference Input
Corvid 88 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 88.
RS-422
A built-in RS-422
connection is available either as an external connection on the full-sized
Corvid 88 or as an internal connection on the low profile Corvid 88. RS-422
allows control of external devices for frame accurate ingest and layoffs.
