3 QMOD-HDMI1.5
Overview
Employing a totally new HD encoding technology, the QMOD-HDMI1.5 continues the QMOD track record for
quality and innovation, setting a new benchmark for features and performance. Designed for digital signage and
HD media applications, the QMOD-HDMI1.5 can accept PC 1080p/720p 60/24Hz video, as well as standard
59.94/29.97 refresh rates.
Users can upgrade operation for full scaling and dual-channel operation by entering optional upgrade key codes.
Sources
 One HDMII input, 1080p 60/24 and 1080i/720p 59.94/60 Hz HDMI, also accepts embedded Dolby AC-3 and PCM
audio
 One RGBHV/Component input, 1080i, 720p, 480p, 480i video, 1080p (RGBHV)

One Composite video input for encoding, captioning, or EAS use
 Stereo and coax SPDIF audio inputs
Encoding
 Creates a high-definition 720p/1080i MPEG-2 stream for broadcast
 Accepts pass-through AC-3 audio, converts stereo and PCM to stereo AC-3, can create dual-language audio for
each program

