INTRODUCTION
1
The AT-3GSDI-HD provides a cost effective way to convert 3G/HD/SD-SDI signal to HDMI
compliant format. The conversion between SDI and HDMI is pure digital and guarantees no
loss transformation for both audio and video.
Plus, with up to 8 channels audio support, 7.1 channel or 5.1 channel audio becomes available.
The AT-3GSDI-HD also provides 2 low jitter and re-clocked outputs for daisy chain or multiple
monitors.
• Supported 3G formats(SMPTE 425M, Level A):
1080p @50/59.94/60Hz (4:2:2), 1080p @24/25/30Hz (4:4:4), 1080i @50/59.94/60Hz (4:4:4),
720p @24/25/50/59.94/60Hz (4:4:4)
• Supported high-denition (HD) formats:
1080i @50/59.94/60Hz, 1035i @50/59.94/60Hz, 720p @50/59.94/60Hz
• Supported standard-denition (SD) formats: NTSC @59.94Hz, PAL @50Hz

PANEL DESCRIPTIONS
NOTICE
1. AT-3GSDI-HD mainly checks the audio channel in audio group 1&2 or 3&4. Please adjust DIP switch pin 3 for
setup.
2. Some HDMI equipped TV may not be able to decipher multiple channel audio, and therefore set DIP switch
pin-2 to ON to get stereo audio to work and then check if multiple channel support is available.
3. While DIP Switch pin-4 is set to OFF , 3G Level B will be automatically converted to Level A.
4. AT-3GSDI-HD supports only audio sample frequency 48kHz.
5. While stereo audio is chosen, CH 1 & 2 of Group 1 or 3 are output.

Operate this product using only the
included external power supply. Use of
other power supplies could impair
performance, damage the product or cause
res.
In the event of an electrostatic discharge,
this device may automatically turn off. If this
occurs, unplug the device, and plug it back
in.
Protect and route power cords so they will

electrical shock. Some substances may
also mar the nish of the product.
Never open or remove unit panels or make
any adjustments not described in this
manual. Attempting to do so could expose
you to dangerous electrical shock or other
hazards. It may also cause damage to your
