Introduction


As the ideal peripheral for all digital cinema installations, the ACS-2048 is an 8x1 switcher that accepts "universal" input formats, and outputs 12-bit twin DVI at 2048 x 1080 - one of the digital cinema standards. With a high-quality scaler at its core, upconverting any input format is as simple as "auto-acquiring" and selecting the desired input.
However, disguised as a switcher, ACS-2048 is really a pathway to new revenue streams for your facility. By enabling "alternate" content to be displayed in the digital cinema resolution, your theater's role as a presentation facility for events, businesses, conventions, town-hall meetings and so much more - becomes a reality.

Key benefits

  • "Universal" inputs support HD/SDI, SD-SDI, DVI, Analog, Composite, and S-video formats
  • Twin link 12-bit DVI outputs upconvert all inputs to 2048 x 1080
  • Motion adaptive de-interlacing and advanced noise reduction circuits are employed throughout to maintain superb image quality
  • User-friendly front panel provides intuitive "local" control
  • A standard HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) "decrypted input" and "encrypted output" path enables copy-protected content to be displayed at digital cinema resolutions, while maintaining the highest degree of security for the copyright holder
