P10 (with Flight Case） - 4 x DP 1.2 / HDMI 2.0 + 2 x 12G-SDI inputs, 2 x HDMI 2.0 + 6 x HDMI 1.3 outputs presentation switcher with flight case

4 x DP 1.2 / HDMI 2.0 + 2 x 12G-SDI inputs, 2 x HDMI 2.0 + 6 x HDMI 1.3 outputs presentation switcher with flight case

P10 is one of two new, sophisticated and powerful presentation switchers produced by Pixelhue. Based on a high-performance FPGA hardware architecture, it is capable of processing 4K 60p 4:4:4 10-bit resolution video with high-performance image de-interlacing.

It comes with a wide variety of 4K connectors to interface with all the latest video devices. Inputs include HDMI 2.0, DP1.2, 12G-SDI and 4 x 10G fiber optic ports. These ones "copy" the HDMI 2.0 outputs to allow the switchers themselves to transmit signals to the LED display controllers over a distance of up to 10 km without fiber converters, with obvious savings also in costs.

The available inputs are 4 x DP 1.2 / HDMI 2.0 + 2 x 12G-SDI, while the outputs are 2 x HDMI 2.0 + 6 x HDMI 1.3. Added to these tehre are 2 x HDMI 1.3 AUX outputs that you can connect to auxiliary devices and a dedicated Multiviewer output provided for live monitoring of all inputs and outputs from a display.

Pixelhue P10 can work in both switcher and splicer modes based on the type of application. In the first case, there is a 4K x 2K @ 60 Hz output. In splicer mode, viceversa, 8K × 2K, always at 60 Hz. Thanks to this double working mode, real 4K inputs/outputs without color subsampling, high-quality video processing with smooth transitions and smooth views, flawless image mosaic, various transition effects, this P-series presentation switcher is the perfect solution for small/medium-sized live events and many fixed installations that require high reliability, ease of best possible image quality and state-of-the-art 4K live processing capabilities.

In terms of layers, P10 supports 6 (2 x 4K layers + 4 x 2K layers or 3 x 4K layers) with the possibility for users to be able to freely organize their arrangement. In addition, up to 128 presets are available to meet your different needs. High resolution images can be captured from live inputs and outputs and used as background.

The control options are very flexible, making it an extremely versatile device that is also simple to use. These options include backlit front panel keys and a 5” graphical LCD display for direct access to functions, or alternatively by the U5 live console, using an intuitive web GUI interface and stream deck.

Finally, we point out the excellent construction quality and electronic components that characterize P10, making it extremely reliable in the most demanding conditions of use. The manufacturer has carried out series of rigorous drop tests, shock & vibration tests and thermal tests, ensuring it can survive in any kind of road trip in order to guarantee perfect functionality even in extreme conditions of use, such as in touring and rental, 24/7 with zero downtime.
