AJA's Io XT is perfect for lightning-fast video capture and playback for professional postproduction and on set applications. It is fully compatible with most popular NLE programs, the newest codecs, video formats, stereoscopic 3D workflows, and more.

High-end features include 3G/Dual-link/HD/SD-SDI, Component Analog, and HDMI connectivity. AJA's OS X software and drivers connect the hardware to extensive codec and media support.
For SDI digital video, Io XT features two 3G/HD/SD-SDI inputs and two outputs, plus HDMI 1.3 input and HDMI 1.4a output-including support for 3D, as well as component/composite output, LTC or Reference input, LTC output, 8 channels of embedded digital audio I/O and 8 channels of analog audio output. The 9-pin RS422 connector allows for use with Digital Betacam, DVCPro50, HDCAM, DVCPRO HD, D5, or HDCAM SR VTR-or any other professional device.
It also supports single link 3G 4:4:4 and dual link 4:4:4 HD-SDI, with full bandwidth 4:4:4 RGB at 10-bits for 1080i, 1080p, 1080PsF and 720p formats, and can even convert between 4:4:4 and 4:2:2 formats for single link HD-SDI monitoring and output.
