The XtremeDV-HD4+ is a PCIe Gen 3 capture card with four independent HDMI 1.4 inputs: two capture up to 4K60 and two up to 1080p60. It is used where several HDMI or DVI sources must be captured in one slot, for example in medical imaging, machine vision, defence and surveillance.
Channels 1 and 3 capture up to 3840×2160 at 60fps (297MHz); channels 2 and 4 capture up to 1920×1080 at 60fps (165MHz). All four run independently, with embedded audio on every channel and HDCP support. Order it with HDMI or DVI splitter cables to suit your sources.
