AJA Video - KONA LHe Plus (HD-SDI I/O Card)

**If using this device with Avid's Pro Tools software, please confirm continued System Compatibility before purchasing here**

The AJA KONA LHe Plus is a powerful video and audio I/O with a full set of no-compromise features for video professionals. The KONA LHe PLUS offers video professionals at all levels an affordable desktop I/O solution that doesn't compromise on quality or essential functionality.

KONA LHe Plus supports both HD/SD analog and digital I/O for video and audio to simplify integrating analog and digital signals into a single workflow. There are also multiple output options to ensure you can deliver whatever formats are required.

With support for 10-bit or 8-bit uncompressed video, KONA LHE Plus features one input and two outputs which can be configured independently for HD or SD. Because KONA LHe Plus supports 12-bit analog compontent HD input and output, devices with analog HD output, such as analog VTRs and game consoles, can be connected.

KONA LHe Plus includes 2-channel AES digital audio, 8-channel SDI embedded digital audio, analog composite/S-video/SD/HD component video I/O, 2-channel balanced analog audio I/O, Genlock input, and three BNCs which may be configured for analog video input and output (HD or SD).
