Synapse
Process, distribute, convert and analyze any type of uncompressed video and audio signals

Synapse is the industry’s most powerful and comprehensive audio and video processing system. Synapse modules make it possible to process, distribute, convert or analyse any type of uncompressed video and audio signal. Some examples: frame synchronization, video up & down conversion, audio (de)embedding, Dolby processing, integrity checking, logo insertion, multiviewing, etc.
Core benefits
-
Flexible
Using the right combination of cards makes it possible to create any kind of transmission chain you could possibly want. This flexibility makes any type of processing job possible.
-
Massive processing power
Not limited by a single function but integrating a wide variety of functions combined on a single processing board, resulting in lower footprint in power consumption and space.
-
Easy deployment, low wiring
The frame has an internal add-on bus which can transport audio from one card to the other internally without any external wiring. Less wiring means easy deployment.
-
Easy to use and intuitive interface
Configuration and control of Synapse is done via Cortex (FOC) or Cerebrum in an intuitive and easy to use graphical user interface.
-
Lower cost of ownership
Synapse is based on a single form factor. This will protect your investment and makes swapping cards between frames possible when systems change, or the infrastructure is dynamic like in OB-vans.

Frames, housings, isolators and connectors
Synapse is based on a single form factor. This is important as it will protect your investment and ensures inter frame swapping when systems change or the infrastructure is dynamic (as in OB-vans). All cards sold today can fit in a frame
first sold in 2001, and every card sold from day one will fit in a frame sold today. This is protection of your investment and lowers cost of ownership when things change. -
Multiviewing
When it comes to speed and flexibility, there is nothing on the market to compare with our new powerful, modular multiviewer that can handle both 4K and any IP video format.
-
Video processing
Synapse video processing modules provide a broad range of processing functionalities. The modules are known for its cost-saving, space and control abilities.
