HDR
HDR allows you to display a wider, richer color gamut, much brighter whites and much deeper, darker blacks than standard signals allow. This gives your image a more dynamic appearance, so you can communicate natural colors to your audience.
Hi5-12G offers this support for your HDR 4K / UltraHD / HD pipelines to HDMI-compatible displays by generating HDR metadata in accordance with HDMI v2.0b / CTA-861-G. Hi5-12G also supports hybrid HDR displays with gamma consoles (HLG) over HDMI.
4K and UltraHD
Typical 4K signals use a resolution of 4096 x 2160 pixels, while UltraHD signals measure 3840 x 2160. This difference may prevent some monitors from being used in full 4K or UltraHD workflows. Hi5-12G can compensate for these resolution differences, enabling UltraHD monitors to be used in 4K productions and vice versa.
Hi5-12G also supports HFR (High Frame Rate) inputs. 4K / UltraHD signals at 50 or 60 fps can be input to the Hi5-12G and output at 60p for viewing on HDMI 2.0-compatible displays.

Audio integration
Up to 16 channels of embedded SDI audio are supported on input, and can be output to 8 channels of outgoing HDMI audio, with audio/video sync editing from 0 to 7 frames. Two analog audio output channels enable direct external monitoring without the need for separate audio decompression.
Converting PsF to Progressive
HDMI monitors do not natively support PsF signals. However, many professional productions still work with PsF formats. The Hi5-12G converts incoming 1080PsF signals into 1080p. This progressive signal is compatible with HDMI monitors.
Universal power supply
All AJA mini-converters come with a universal power supply including international connectors for worldwide use.
Compact and portable
AJA mini-converters are small enough to fit behind a monitor, on the back of a rack or directly onto a camera tray. A locking power connector prevents accidental detachment, and an optional P-TAP power cable enables battery charging in remote locations.
