Video Switcher
HVS-1200 – 12G-SDI 1M/E (Compact Video Switcher)
HVS-1200 is a new switcher that builds on the features of the HANABI HVS-100/110 and HVS-490 video switchers and adds 12G-SDI support as standard. One or two M/E switchings (in 4K(UHD) and HD mode, respectively) are just the start. Enjoy two or six M/E performances in these modes thanks to FOR-A’s MELite™ technology. The compact, 3U form factor is exceedingly portable, making the HVS-1200 the perfect choice for mobile production or events.
HVS-2000 – 3G/HD/SD 2M/E Video Switcher
The new HVS-2000 engine is a powerful 6 video M/E machine and a game-changer in today’s video production switchers. Now with the power in our new HVS-2000 technology, the V6MU engine can be used in a variety of applications:
Upstream & downstream transition effects
Add the pure power of 6 real M/E’s for multiple independent on-stage monitor display control or add multiple control panels to operate from a second control room each with mixes, wipes, keys, DVE including preview control. Users of the new HANABI will win the video production race with its high-quality, efficient, easy operation system.
HVS-6000/6000M – 4K Video Switcher
Designed for use in 4K(UHD) systems, the HVS-6000 brings 12G-SDI compatibility to all inputs and outputs. Users can operate the unit in the same manner as current HD systems. In an era of video over IP, the HVS-6000 anticipates these needs and enables IP interfaces to be mounted on all I/O slots.4K UHD and 12G-SDI support, a maximum of 80 inputs/32 outputs or 64 inputs/48 outputs, the HVS-6000 is ideal when upgrading from HD to 4K UHD
HVS-100/110- HD/SD- Video Switcher
“True Successors to the World Standard in Small HD/SD Switchers”
HVS-100 and HVS-110 boast exceptional cost performance. Both mixers inherit and improve upon the diverse functions and features of the popular HVS-300HS, including mixed HD/SD input, frame synchronizing, re-sizing engine, 2.5D wipe effects, DVE, Chroma keyer, and DSK. The HVS-100 and HVS-110 also have a built-in Web server that lets you change settings from a PC or a tablet. A clip memory feature has been added to the still store to support playback of video or animations and enhances productions through the use of CG wipes, while the multi-viewer meets a diverse range of monitoring needs. The equipment can be used in all types of locations, including live events, sports, news studios, OB vans, editorial offices, and presentation venues, making it the ideal tool for shaping the imaginative ideas of video creators.
HVS -490 Video Switcher
HVS-490 switcher inherits the key technology of HVS-2000 and HVS-390HS while opening the door to even more affordable 4K production. Exclusive MELite™ technology extends the switcher’s 2 M/Es to offer 6 M/E performance. *1 Expand your switching capabilities even more by assigning FLEXaKEY™ or feature-rich 2.5D DVE, for compositing with up to 12 keyers. Take advantage of this truly broad range of switching in live production.1 Using an optional HVS-49IO card. In 4K mode, 1 M/E + 1 MELite is available.
Video Routing Switcher -MFR 3000
Ready for 4K/8K, the MFR-3000 enables compact system building that requires fewer cables and leaves more rack space (using input/output option with 12G-SDI) and more outputs for production (using innovative multi-viewer output). This routing switcher builds on the solid performance of our larger MFR-5000/8000 units through redundancy and easy maintenance. Can be expanded by 8 inputs or outputs at a time, up to 64×64. In mixed environments, audio modules can also be added. Designed for mission-critical broadcast facilities, additional environments include hospital surgical rooms, corporate meeting rooms, and research centers. An optimal solution in midsize systems where variable input/output capabilities and mixed-signal formats are used.
Video Routing Switcher -MFR 1000
Powerful 4K and 8K routing with 4K-UHD conversion and 12G-SDI compatibility across all inputs and outputs. Configure a matrix of up to 16 x 16. 12G-SDI compatibility across all inputs and outputs. Optional AVDL functionality enables smooth changeover without noise or disruption. Conventional 3G-SDI routing switchers require 4 crosspoints to input and output 4K video. With 12G-SDI, 4K can be carried over a single crosspoint. The MFR-1000 also determines the type of SDI input automatically—no need to worry about what signals are supplied.
MV-4000 Series Multiview
Up to 68 inputs, with 8-monitor/114-window outputs. Simplifies 4K workflows by accepting mixed input, including 12G-SDI. Layouts for each output can be freely customized. Up to 68 channels of input with optional cards* Up to three optional MV-4200SDI or MV-4220SDI cards. Customized layout in HD on up to 8 monitors.
Multi-Purpose Signal Processor – FA-9600
Each of the FA-9600 processor’s two HD/SD inputs includes a frame synchronizer. Because the signal processor features 12G-SDI terminals, optional software opens the door to 4K(UHD) production. Adding an optional expansion card provides four more channels of 3G-SDI input/output or six channels of 12G-SDI distributed output. *1The FA-9600 is much more than a basic frame synchronizer. It simplifies all types of video conversion. A newly developed color processing circuit supports the latest gamut and dynamic range specifications, and an optional converter circuit is available for up/down/cross conversion. Offering a wide range of audio processing, core features of remapping and gain adjustment, the FA-9600 can be expanded with optional cards*1 that make it an ideal standalone solution at transmission centers, in mobile production trucks, production studios, news stations, and other nonlinear editing and playout production environments.
