Monarch Brodcaast™ADDAGE™ signal converters offer high quality analog and digital signal conversion including auto SD/HD signal detection, analog audio on Phoenix connections, tally connections and Ethernet connection for software control, upgrade and maintenance.

Monarch Brodcaast™ADDAGE™ converters instantly detect standard definition and high definition video signal formats. They can support 625/25 PAL, 525/29.97 NTSC, 1080i 50, 1080i 59.94, 720p 50 and 720p 59.94 video standards.

Monarch Brodcaast™ADDAGE™ converters use 10 bit sampling rate to convert video signals, so they can handle full resolution video in standard definition or high definition completely uncompressed. They preserve the video quality until it is needed to compress the video for streaming or live broadcast.

Audio inputs and outputs are the integral part of all Monarch Brodcaast™ADDAGE™ converters. Phoenix style audio connectors are provided for analog balanced audio I/O. All video/audio configurations are done through mini switches provided on the converters or through the software control via Ethernet connection.

M-AD10G – Analog to Digital HD / SD converter with Genlock

The M-AD10G is perfect for converting from analog video in HD/SD component, Composite or S-Video to SDI video with the choice to embed SDI audio from balanced analog audio inputs. It provides excellent-quality 10-bit conversion of analog video to SDI video.

This converter works on signal in and signals out method. If the input signal is in Standard Definition, output signal will be in Standard Definition and if the input signal is in High Definition, the output signal will be in High Definition. It does not do up scaling or down scaling of signal from SD to HD or HD to SD.
