ACS-2048 Alternative Content Switcher
Manufacturer Description
As the ideal peripheral for all digital cinema installations, the ACS-2048 is an 8x1 switcher that accepts "universal" input formats, and outputs 12-bit twin DVI at 2048 x 1080 - one of the digital cinema standards. With a high-quality scaler at its core, upconverting any input format is as simple as "auto-acquiring" and selecting the desired input.
However, disguised as a switcher, ACS-2048 is really a pathway to new revenue streams for your facility. By enabling "alternate" content to be displayed in the digital cinema resolution, your theater's role as a presentation facility for events, businesses, conventions, town-hall meetings and so much more - becomes a reality.
