The Extron USP 405 Universal Signal Processor is the one box solution for all video signal conversion needs. It is an all-in-one, high performance scaler, scan converter, transconverter, format converter, switcher, and transcoder. The USP 405 accepts a wide range of video signal formats, processes them, and outputs them all in one format directly to a digital display, projector, or editing device. The applications for the USP 405 are virtually infinite and include rental and staging environments, boardrooms, conference rooms, classrooms, auditoriums, and much more.

The USP 405 is especially useful for converting a number of video and computer signals either up or down. It can convert HDTV, component, S-video, composite (NTSC and PAL), RGB, and optional SDI (Serial Digital Interface) video formats into a single video format—all while maintaining maximum image quality. RGB signals that are input into the USP 405 undergo one of two signal conversion processes: they can be scaled to one of 35 output resolutions, or they can be scan converted to component, S-video, composite (NTSC and PAL), and SDI video signal formats. Video signals that are input as component, S-video, composite, and SDI can be transcoded by the USP 405 and output on all video connectors in each format simultaneously. These video signals can also be scaled to one of 35 resolutions and output on 15-pin HD connectors and BNCs.

There are five video inputs on the USP 405, (including optional SDI input), accessible through the rear panel: one female 15-pin HD connector for RGB/computer video (includes a buffered local monitor output); five female BNCs for RGBHV, component video (Y, R-Y, B-Y), S-video, or composite video; one 4-pin mini DIN for S-video (includes a buffered loop-through); one female BNC for composite video (includes a buffered loop-through); and one female BNC for the optional SDI video.

The USP 405 has six video outputs (including optional SDI output), also on the rear panel: one female 15-pin HD connector for RGB/computer video; five female BNCs for RGBHV/HDTV video (Y, R-Y, B-Y); three female BNCs for component video; one 4-pin mini DIN for S-video; one female BNC for composite video; and one female BNC for the optional SDI video.

To maximize the quality of the output image, the USP 405 features several Extron proprietary video processing technologies: Dynamic Motion Interpolation (DMI™), 3:2 (NTSC) and 2:2 (PAL) pulldown detection, and the patented Accu-RATE Frame Lock (AFL™).

The USP 405 is available in four configurations: the standard USP 405 (without SDI), the USP 405 DI (with SDI In), the USP 405 DO (with SDI Out), and the USP 405 DI/O (with SDI In & Out). This universal signal processor comes with an easy-to-read LCD menu and back-lit, tactile buttons to simplify operation and control. It can also be controlled by IR remote with the optional Extron IR 801.
