FLow Edge Technical Datasheet
Function Summary |
| Flow Edge is a powerful and stable rack-mounted converter that integrates SDI/HDMI format conversion, up/down conversion, and optical transceiver into a single unit. Available in 2-channel, 4-channel, and 6-channel models, the 6-channel Flow Edge, for example, is equivalent to six 12G-SDI/HDMI 4K60 converters and six optical transceivers. Each channel in Flow Edge features independent switches and scroll wheels for individual control. Dual redundant power supplies and an internal silent cooling fan ensure continuous and stable operation. With a wide voltage input range of 100V~240V, Flow Edge offers excellent global compatibility. Flow Edge supports three models: 2-channel, 4-channel, and 6-channel. Below are the interface information for each channel, SDI video formats, HDMI video formats, audio, format conversion, optical transmission, OLED screen specifications, as well as the control method for each channel. |
