AJA D10CEA SDI to Component/Composite Converter User Manual — Introduction Introduction The D1OCEA converts SDI video with embedded audio to 10-bit component or composite analog video and 4 channel balanced analog audio. The video outputs can be configured as YPbPr (Betacam or SMPTE/EBU N10), RGB, composite or Y/C (S-Video). Two re-clocked loop-thru SDI outputs are also provided. This versatile low-cost converter is ideal for video/audio monitoring.
