AJA Corvid 88-S - Low-profile 8-lane PCIe 2.0 card, 8-in/8-out

AJA Corvid 88-S

The AJA Corvid 88-S is the low-profile version of the Corvid 88, this PCIe card is designed for Development Partner applications that require multiple simultaneous input and output streams. Corvid 44 provides four independent BNC connections while Corvid 88 expands that to a total of eight BNC connections on a single card. Each BNC connection can be set programmatically as either an input or output and each can support a different video format, provided all formats use the same clock timing. This allows for maximum flexibility in applications where high density I/O is required, such as playout or ingest servers. Connections can also be linked together to support Dual Link or 4K/UltraHD formats.
