The ATSC+SDI is the first HDTV Tuner that features an onboard HD-SDI port. A professional HDTV tuner, the ATSC+SDI is controllable via RS-232, IP, and IR commands. An onboard Web page enables remote Web control. A new menu-driven display simplifies setup, and a front-panel USB port makes firmware updates a snap. The new compact enclosure allows mounting of two tuners in a single rack space.
