PDM 1284 D

3G-SDI AES Audio Embedder / De-Embedder

This product is discontinued

This product is discontinued. It has been replaced by the PDM 1484 D.

The PDM 1284 D is a versatile 3G-SDI AES audio Embedder and De-Embedder. It supports balanced AES3 audio I/O using a D-Sub 25 connector.

Audio groups are selected using the rotary switches, and its possible to embed and de-embed additional audio groups by cascading modules together. Simultaneous embedding and de-embedding means the module will de-embed and output the audio from the selected audio group before overwriting with new audio (if required). The module automatically detects audio formats and
will deactivate the sample rate converters to preserve encoded bit streams such as DolbyE.

The “auto black” mode uses a black video frame if no SDI input is present. This allows the module to embed audio even when no video source is available. This mode is useful if the module is being used in an “audio only” application.

The module is fully compatible with yelloGUI and LynxCentraal, which provide access to a host of additional internal settings including manual insertion of metadata (AFD,WSS,VI). It can be configured, controlled and updated using Windows or MacOS.
