UltraStudio 4K is attractive so it's perfect for desktop as well as rack mount use. UltraStudio 4K can take advantage of long Thunderbolt cables that can be up to 30 meters away from the host computer.
Thunderbolt technology enables UltraStudio 4K to offer high enough speed for true Ultra HD and 4K capture and playback which is 4 times the resolution of regular HD 1080 video.

UltraStudio 4K is also perfect for 3D workflow as it features both interleaved/side by side and dual stream capture and playback. Interleaved 3D allows the left and right eye to be interleaved as fields into a single video connection and file, so customers can edit using current editing software.
UltraStudio 4K includes the latest advanced video technologies available. UltraStudio 4K features dual link 6G-SDI so it can capture and playback Ultra HD and 4K video as well as use the dual links for advanced 4:4:4 as well as dual stream stereoscopic 3D where 3D capture and playback is done via two independent channels.
