Now with support for new 3Gb/s SDI for 2K, HD and SD compatibility, plus built in 3D lookup tables for feature film grade color management, HDLink Pro is easily the most advanced monitoring solution available.

Full Resolution HDTV Monitoring
Even big expensive 24 inch CRT displays can’t resolve the full resolution of the HDTV video standard. HDLink Pro eliminates this problem because every HD-SDI pixel is mapped to the pixels in the LCD computer display. Now you can get affordable full resolution HD-SDI monitoring wherever you need it in your facility.

Only HDLink Pro supports real time 2K playback via SDI at a massive 2048 x 1556 resolution when used with a 30“ LCD display. HDLink Pro auto switches between SD, HD and 2K, so it’s ideal for all your monitoring needs.

Color Management via 3D Lookup Tables
With 3D lookup tables built in, now you can accurately simulate any film stock, or calibrate the colorimity of the connected display. The included HDLink Utility software for Windows and Mac OS X allows for flexible real time color adjustments. Additional lookup tables and software updates can be easily added via HDLink Pro’s fast USB 2.0 connection.
