AJA 12G-AMA-T-ST 12G-SDI Input and Output up to 4K/UltraHD with ST Fiber Transmitter
12G-AMA-T-ST 12G-SDI Input and Output up to 4K/UltraHD with ST Fiber Transmitter
The 12G-AMA is a 4-channel analog audio embedder/disembedder Mini-Converter with support for 12G-SDI input and output up to 4K/UltraHD. Fiber models offer single link fiber I/O including LC and ST options.
Audio disembedding is always functional, providing four analog outputs. Audio embedding is user selectable, on a channel pair basis, to either pass 12G-SDI input audio or to embed input analog audio from the breakout cable.
Analog audio levels are selectable. The 12G-AMA automatically detects and configures the input video standard.
