The Evertz 7710DCDA-HD is a modular broadcast device that functions as a reclocking HD/SDI distribution amplifier and a high-quality downconverter. It accepts various international HD and SD-SDI inputs, provides four reclocked HD/SDI outputs, and offers three selectable downconverted SDI or composite analog outputs. The unit performs full 10-bit processing for high-quality downconversion, including features like 3:2 pulldown for 1080p inputs and options for different aspect ratios such as 16:9 letterbox or 4:3 center crop.
