The VP-747Universal Presentation Matrix Switcher / Scaler is a true multi-standard video to graphics scaler and presentation switcher for a wide variety of presentation and multimedia applications. It consists of a very high quality scaler with many user-selectable graphics or HDTV output resolutions, as well as a user definable output mode1.

The VP-727AAudio Switcher and VP-727A-BABalanced Audio Switcher are audio companion switchers for the VP-747, and either can operate in conjunction with it and the VP-727TPresentation Switcher Control Panel.

In particular, the VP-747:

Features Silicon Optix HQV® Video Processing (Hollywood Quality Video) which represents the state-of-the-art in video processing technology, with the highest quality de-interlacing, noise reduction, and scaling performance for both standard-definition and high-definition signals

Features eight sets of universal INPUT BNC connectors: R/PR, G/Y/CV, B/PB/C, HS/CS, and VS. Each set can be programmed to operate as: composite video, s-Video, component video2, RGsB/YUV, RGBS, or

RGBHV

Includes two DVI / HDMI3 inputs (for input 1 and input 2) that support up to 1.65 / 2.25Gbps bandwidth per graphic channel4

Is HDTV Compatible and HDCP compliant5

Scales the selected sources to DVI / HDMI, RGBHV (Y, Pb, Pr) and VGA outputs simultaneously

Has dual scalers—for “live” seamless transitions from one source to another—with two independent outputs: a PREVIEW OUT and a PROGRAM OUT (see Section 8.2). The PREVIEW output—including an OSD menu for making adjustments—is for determining how the scaled output will look before displaying live during a presentation, as well as for setting the special effects that harmonize the transition when changing between sources. Both outputs have separate sets of connectors for DVI / HDMI, VGA (a 15-pin HD computer graphics video connector), and RGBHV / YPbPr (on BNC connectors)
