AJA Corvid 44 4-Channel 3G-SDI Low Profile Flexible Input/Output Card without Fan, 5x Mini-BNC to Full-Size BNC Cable Adapter

The Corvid 44 4-Channel 3G-SDI Low Profile Flexible Input/Output Card is a powerful tool designed to enhance your audio and video input/output capacity. This versatile device allows each SDI connection to be individually configured as either an input or output, enabling the mixing of formats for up to four HD or SD channels on a single card.

As the demand for higher resolutions continues to grow, the Corvid 44's ability to combine SDI connections into a single 4K/UltraHD channel offers remarkable flexibility and future-proofing. This card is equipped with PCIe Express Gen 2.0 8-lane and supports all SD/HD/2K x 1080/4K video formats.

The Corvid 44 also features 3G input/output for High Frame Rate (HFR) support, 8/10-bit YCbCr and 12- bit RGB frame buffer formats, and 2 independent Mixer/Keyer widgets. It also boasts 4 independent 16-Ch 48 kHz SDI embedded audio I/O engines and an Analog Color Black or HD Tri-Level Sync.

This card is now available in a fanless version, making it ideal for sound-sensitive environments. It's a multi-stream, multi-format PCIe I/O card that allows AJA Developer Partner applications to access up to four simultaneous input and output streams on a single PCIe card, making it perfect for a wide variety of medium-density applications.

Each BNC connection on the Corvid 44 can be set programmatically as either an input or output and each can support a different video format, provided all formats use the same clock timing. Connections can also be linked together to support dual link or 4K/UltraHD formats.

The Corvid 44 supports 4K (4096 x 2160) and UltraHD (3840 x 2160) High Frame Rate (HFR) workflows. Working at frame rates of 48p, 50p, and 60p ensures smooth motion for the most demanding 4K and UltraHD applications.

This card also 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.

The Corvid 44 also features a built-in RS-422 connection, available either as an external connection on the full-sized Corvid 44 or as an internal connection on the low profile Corvid 44. This RS-422 connection allows control of external devices for frame-accurate ingest and layoffs.

The Corvid 44 is a powerful platform for AJA's Developer Partners, allowing them to incorporate AJA products into their systems. By utilizing existing, proven video I/O devices, Developer Partners can leverage AJA's expertise to develop and support these technologies, saving money and getting their integrated products to market more quickly.
