Description

The M6205A-3G is a sophisticated audio processing platform card designed for broadcast use. It can extract and process up to 16 channels of audio embedded in a digital video stream.   The M6205-3G accepts 3G, HD-SDI and SD-SDI signals.   In addition two AES inputs are provided to enable substitution of the embedded audio signals.   The card may also be used as a one group embedder.   Functions of the card include channel shuffling, channel replacement or substitution, and mixing.  Several task specific processors for DTS and Dolby signals may be plugged into the 72 pin SIMM socket on the card.

The optional processors include:

  • DTS Neural Loudness Control
  • DTS MultiMerge
  • DTS UpMix
  • DTS DownMix
  • DTS Mono2Stereo
  • Dolby E/AC3 Decoding Dolby E or AC3
  • Dolby encoding Dolby Prologic II Upmixing

The M6205A-3G extracts, processes, and re-embeds the audio providing two SDI outputs with the embedded processed audio. In addition the card provides AES copies of the processed audio.  The M6205A-3G complies with SMPTE 272M, SMPTE 299M, and SMPTE 424M standards.  Cable equalization and reclocking techniques enable the M6205-3G to recover the incoming 3G, SD-SDI or HD-SDI signal reliably.   The M6205A-3G is housed in the openGear DFR-8300 series frames.
