AJA FS1-X

The AJA FS1-X is a frame synchronizer that brings frame synchronisation and conversion to the next level. This high quality converter integrates an amazing array of video and audio connectivity and processing, including 56- and 64-channel MADI audio over coax or fiber. With its flexible architecture, FS1-X utilises a high-quality, motion adaptive linear Frame Rate Converter for smooth motion conversion between a wide range of frame rates whether for broadcast, production or live events. This powerful piece of tech is encased in a 1RU sized unit making it perfect to rack with the rest of your gear making it easy to transport and store.
