IQQMD00 www.snellgroup.com Introduction

2. Introduction

The IQQMD00 provides conversion for Quad-link Ultra HD SDI inputs to SDI outputs in

1080p, 1080i, 720p or SD formats. This allows Ultra High Definition signals to be integrated

into existing HD/SD-SDI workflows and monitored on standard 1920 x 1080 displays

removing the need for expensive Ultra HD specific equipment and monitors.

Drawing on Snell's extensive experience in conversion technology the IQQMD00 uses high

quality scaling and filtering technology to down convert and align the quad-link input to

provide a clean and sharp HD/SD output, ideal for monitoring and other signal distribution

applications.

The video output from this module is SDI with an option to add fiber, copper or HDMI SFP

module to extend the output capabilities of the IQQMD00.
