Chapter 1: Introduction

Overview

AJA's 4K2HD downconverts professional SDI 4K/UHD signals to HD resolution using AJA's

high-quality scaling for cost-effective monitoring and conversion. 4K2HD’s HD-SDI and

HDMI outputs are both live all the time, producing fantastic-looking HD images for on set

monitoring or direct-to-air broadcast. 4K2HD supports high frame rate (HFR) 4K inputs at

50 and 60fps and converts the HD output to 50 and 60fps for accurate viewing. 4K2HD's

configuration options can extract an HD resolution image from the 4K input to provide a

one-to-one pixel image for 4K focus checks on HD displays. Configuration can be set

remotely via AJA MiniConfig software control over USB.

4K2HD Operating

Modes

4K2HD has three working modes: 4K Down-Conversion mode, Non-4K mode, and Center

Cut mode. The first two modes are selected automatically depending on the input video.

These modes can also be manually set using the MiniConfig application.

• 4K Down Conversion mode: If the format of the input video is detected as 4K format,

or the unit is configured by MiniConfig, 4K input video is down-scaled to 2K video and

then output on both the HDMI and the SDI outputs.

• Non-4K mode: If the format of input video is detected as non-4K video source, e.g.

720p60, or the unit is configured by MiniConfig, 4K2HD will not try to make 4K video

from four video inputs. Instead, it will output video to HDMI/SDI from the selected SDI

input.

• Center Cut mode: 4K2HDwill be in Center Cut mode if the input video is 4K format, and

the mode has been enabled through MiniConfig. In this mode the 2K center of 4K input

video will be output to the HDMI and SDI outputs. No down-scaling occurs, and the

output format is either 1920x1080 or 2048x1080 (depending the input source and the

2K cropping configuration).
