HDLink connects post production quality HDTV or Standard Definition SDI video directly to any supported DVI-D based LCD computer monitor for incredible true HDTV resolution video monitoring. Perfect for studio, edit suite, telecine or location video shoots.

Full Resolution HD Monitoring
HDLink connects SDI video directly to any supported DVI-D based LCD computer monitor for incredible true HDTV resolution video monitoring. Connect any HDMI television or video projector to HDLink for cinema style monitoring! Even large 23 inch CRT based monitors can’t display the full resolution of the HD-SDI signal, but with HDLink you see every pixel in the HD signal, so you'll always see a perfect image.

Supports both DVI and HDMI
HDLink supports all DVI-D based digital computer displays and now also includes HDMI video support. HDMI supports video at 1080i/50, 1080i/59.94 and 720p/59.94 on any HDMI device. DVI-D supports displays at 1920 x 1200 (16:10) resolution for all 1080 HDTV formats. When working in 720 HDTV formats you can even use lower cost 1280 x 800 resolution display for pixel for pixel 720p viewing. When working in NTSC or PAL, HDLink can 2x oversize the displayed image making viewing easier. Because most computer displays are limited to approximately a 60 Hz refresh rate, HDLink will automatically apply pull-down to allow video frame rates to be displayed. HDLink includes a built-in Power PC processor allowing automatic adjustment of native display resolutions using VESA E-EDID1.3.

World's Highest Quality SDI in 4:4:4
HDLink introduced the world’s first full HDTV resolution 4:4:4 monitoring solution that supports both standard definition SDI, HD-SDI and Dual Link HD-SDI 4:4:4 for full resolution colour monitoring. Dual Link HD-SDI 4:4:4 uses two HD-SDI video cables for twice the colour resolution. Conventional SD and HD video is 4:2:2 based, which limits colour detail while 4:4:4 HD video preserves the full colour detail which is important for critical keying and feature film work.

Standard Definition or HDTV
HDLink supports all SDI based formats from standard definition NTSC/PAL to HD-SDI 1080 and 720 when used with DVI displays.
