After meticulous design and engineering, AJA presents the HA5-12G HDMI 2.0 to 12G-SDI Mini-Converter, a robust and high-performance solution for professional video signal conversion. This innovative device is tailored for users who require the seamless conversion of HDMI 2.0 input to two 12G-SDI single link outputs, ensuring compatibility with a broad spectrum of professional cameras, monitors, and recording equipment.Crafted with durability in mind, the HA5-12G features two SDI DA outputs that transmit 12G-SDI on each link, effectively reducing the need for multiple cable runs when transporting 4K/UltraHD SDI signals. The converter supports a wide array of audio configurations, accommodating up to 8 channels of audio from the HDMI source or 2-channel analog audio (RCA). This flexibility allows for both eight or two channels of digital embedded audio on 12G-SDI, catering to diverse audio requirements in professional settings.The HA5-12G is not only user-friendly but also supports High Dynamic Range (HDR) content, enabling the display of a more dynamic range of colors, brighter whites, and deeper blacks. This feature is essential for delivering natural, true-to-life colors to your audience, enhancing the visual storytelling experience. The converter's compatibility with AJA Mini-Config software allows for the analysis of HDR infoframe data from the HDMI input, providing an additional layer of precision in color management.Understanding the nuances of 4K and UltraHD workflows, the HA5-12G addresses resolution discrepancies, allowing UltraHD monitors to integrate seamlessly into 4K productions and vice versa. High Frame Rate (HFR) inputs are also supported, with the ability to handle 4K/UltraHD signals at 50 or 60 fps and output them at up to 60p for display on HDMI 2.0 capable screens.The HA5-12G's full HDMI support includes an equalized input engineered to facilitate HDMI cable runs of up to 30 meters using 24 gauge cable, minimizing installation complexity. The converter's 12G-SDI outputs deliver exceptionally high-quality signal representation, crucial for large raster and deep color workflows where image fidelity is paramount.Pristine image quality is a hallmark of the HA5-12G, with a 12G-SDI output featuring PLL clock filtering to ensure low jitter output and stable image reproduction. An intuitive LED indicator provides quick signal identification, displaying the input source as SD (green), HD (red), or 4K/UltraHD (orange).For audio versatility, the converter includes two RCA analog audio inputs to embed any 2-channel analog audio signal into the SDI output, maintaining audio sync throughout the workflow. DSLR support is also a key feature, with the HA5-12G accepting progressive standard definition signals from DSLR cameras, streamlining their integration into SDI workflows.The HA5-12G comes with a universal power supply, complete with international plug connections, making it a reliable tool for global use. Its compact and portable design allows for easy placement behind monitors, in racks, or on camera rigs. A locking power connector and optional P-TAP power cable offer secure and flexible power options, especially in remote locations.In summary, the HA5-12G HDMI 2.0 to 12G-SDI Mini-Converter stands as a testament to AJA's commitment to producing durable, high-quality, and reliable video equipment. Its innovative features and user-friendly design make it an indispensable tool for professionals seeking to maintain the highest standards in video production.
