Product Overview

The FA-9500 is a multipurpose signal processor loaded with the functions you need for video production. It supports 3G-SDI, HD/SD-SDI, and analog composite I/O, in addition to its functionality as a frame synchronizer, provides up/down/cross/aspect converters, second converter (down/cross/aspect conversion), color corrector, and automatic video optimizer (AVO) as standard features.

It can convert many types of video and audio signals. The numerous additional functions include, as options, analog component I/O, frame rate converter, logo generator, Dolby E encoder and Dolby E decoder. By combining these varied options, a single unit can provide the optimal functionality for all video production scenes, including line, relay, reporting, production, editing and delivery. As long as you have the FA-9500, you won't need any other peripheral video equipment.

The FA-9500 is a multipurpose signal processor loaded with the functions you need for video production. The FA-9500 offers a wide range of options that let you expand with the functions you need without waste. There are all types of functions you can add, starting with video I/O boards. These options include: Frame Rate Converter and Dolby E encoder/decoder.
