AQD (ATSC/QAM Demodulator) accepts one input in 8VSB (digital off-air) or QAM (digital cable) format, and delivers
one output in NTSC composite analog Audio/Video format, and two identical outputs in ASI format.

ry-pick channels from a “clear” QAM cable lineup.

dard set of codes embedded in the video stream and used by digital television broadcasters to optimally display a
16:9 video format on an analog television set designed for 4:3 video format.
