1-1. Welcome
Congratulations! By purchasing UFM-30MUX Digital Audio Multiplexer modules you have
entered the world of FOR-A and its many innovative products. Thank you for your patronage and
we hope you will turn to FOR-A products again and again to satisfy your video and audio needs.
FOR-A provides a wide range of products, from basic support units to complex system
controllers, which have been increasingly joined by products for computer video-based systems.
Whatever your needs, talk to your FOR-A representative. We will do our best to be of continuing
service to you.
The UFM-30MUX
, Digital Audio Multiplexer plug-in module is installed into a UF-106B or
UF-112 UFM Frame. The unit accepts 3G/HD/SD-SDI signal input and 8-ch
AES/EBU audio input and multiplexes the video and audio signals into an SDI
output. The AES 7/8 input port can also accept LTC signal by changing the switch
setting on the front panel. LTC input can be also embedded into the SDI output.
The UFM-3MUXAI
optional analog input module for the UFM-30MUX is also installed into the
UFM frame. The unit converts analog input audio (4 stereo pairs) to digital audio
signals and embeds them into the SDI output stream from the UFM-30MUX.
1-2. Features
Accepts an SDI stream and 4-pair (8ch) AES/EBU input and outputs the signal as an SDI
stream.
Supports 3G/HD/SD-SDI.
Maximum 32 ch audio source: 16 channels of SDI de-embedded audio, 8 channels of
AES/EBU input and 8 channels (4 stereo pairs) of optional analog input
Free mapping of audio source channels to the SDI output on a per-channel basis (for
asynchronous channels on a per-group basis)
Incorporates a Sampling Rate Converter for each AES/EBU input.
Accepts timecode (LTC) input (using the LTC IN and AES 7/8 switchable input or LTC IN on
an optional module card).
Allows input timecode to be overlaied onto the ANC area of SDI output.
Relay bypass from SDI input to SDI output (when unit power is Off or set to Bypass)
UFM-3MUXAI option modules provide analog audio input and indipendent LTC input.
