FOR-A to Emphasize Comprehensive Product Integration, 4K and 12G Compatible Technologies at IBC 2017 August 1, 2017
Tokyo, Japan, August 1, 2017 At the upcoming 2017 IBC Show, the FOR-A booth will focus on the companys commitment to overall product integration, and as part of its full HD and 4K initiative, continuing with the construction of a comprehensive IP and 12G-SDI infrastructure. The company will showcase its vast product range of video and audio solutions, including vision mixers, multi viewers, virtual studios, video/audio processors, file-based solutions and high-speed cameras. The IBC Show will take place September 15-19 at the RAI in Amsterdam, and FOR-A will exhibit in the same location as recent years in Hall 2, Stand A51.
HVS-490
FOR-A will highlight its range of video switchers at the show, which offer the ability to integrate with ClassXs 2D/3D character generation and live motion graphics and playout software. The latest unit in FOR-As line of vision mixers, the HVS-490 HD/4K-UHD unit, will make its IBC debut. First introduced earlier this year at NAB, the HVS-490 offers an extensive feature set in a compact, affordable unit. Ideal for mobile productions and live event venues, the HVS-490 supports up to 40 inputs/18 outputs, 36 inputs/20 outputs or 32 inputs/22 outputs, including two-channel HDMI outputs. In 4K-UHD, it allows 10 inputs/six outputs, nine inputs/six outputs or eight inputs/seven outputs. It also has 16 channels of 2.5 DVE as standard and can be optionally expanded to a maximum of 32 channels.
Other switchers that will be shown in FOR-As booth include the HVS-2000 and an updated version of the HVS-100, the HVS-100TB2, both of which will be showcased with integrated Thunderbolt technology (*1) that allows the units to easily interface with external devices. The switchers Thunderbolt 2 I/O expansion cards enable single-cable transfer of four channels of HD video to a computer. With its easy-to-use control panel, the HVS-2000 switcher now offers 3 M/E capabilities, a 4K 3D DVE expansion card, and a 2SI software option, which enables switching with less delay than SQD systems. Offering the capabilities of a 7 M/E system, the HVS-2000 is ideal for a wide array of production environments and is well suited for 4K productions. FOR-A will also introduce a prototype of a new 3 M/E 12G-SDI compatible vision mixer at IBC, the HVS-6000. Further product details will be released at a later date.
FT-ONE-LS-12G
Another FOR-A product to makes it IBC debut is the FT-ONE-LS-12G, the latest high-speed full 4K camera in its FT-ONE series. Designed specifically for fast-paced sporting events, the FT-ONE-LS-12G offers high-quality image performance, even in low light conditions that are often found in sports stadium venues and can prove troublesome for most high-frame-rate cameras. The FT-ONE-LS-12G supports full 4K shooting in maximum 500 frames per second (fps) or up to 1,200 fps high frame rate shooting in full HD resolution. Ready for workflows of all kinds, the camera is equipped with a newly developed original sensor that enables noise reducing.
On the routing switcher front, FOR-A will showcase its MFR series of solutions, including the 12G-SDI compatible MFR-4000 and MFR-3000 3G/HD/SD/ASI unit. The MFR-4000 provides 12G-SDI compatibility across all 72 inputs and 72 outputs, bringing powerful support to 4K-UHD and 8K routing. The MFR-3000 offers up to 64 inputs/64 outputs in a 4U frame, and is an ideal solution in midsize systems where variable input/output capabilities and mixed signal formats are used.
FOR-A will also display Fujitsus line of video transmission solutions, including the newly introduced IP-HE950 real-time H.265/HEVC encoder/decoder units. Employing the latest compression tools and image processing algorithms to provide best-in-class video fidelity, the IP-HE950 supports real-time 4K contribution, as well as SD and HD. FOR-A is a distributor of Fujitsus high-performance encoders and decoders in North America, Europe, Middle-East and Africa, as well as select regions in Latin America.
USF-10IP
Other FOR-A products that will make their show debut at IBC include the FRC-9000 and MCC-4K frame rate converters, as well as the USF-10IP 10 GbE IP Converter - a dual 10 GbE video over IP module series that offers high-quality mutual conversion of any major standard IP video format, including ASPEN, NMI, SMPTE 2022-5/6, SMPTE 2110, TR-03/04 and most of the latest IP formats. The MCC-4K frame rate converter enables frame rate converting of 4K resolution and supports up/down conversion between 4K and HD. Also to make its IBC debut is the FOR-A YEM ELETEX LMCC-8000 8K/4K linear matrix color converter. Jointly developed between FOR-A and Japans NHK, the unit converts color gamut and dynamic range of dual green or full resolution 8K signals, and also supports 4K-UHD and full 4K signals.
