Projectiondesign Announces New X-Port Extension Modules

The manufacturer of visual projection systems projectiondesign has unveiled its new extension modules X-Port, designed to add additional ports to compatible projectors, corresponding to the F35 series, FL35 and F85 from the Norwegian company.

Enabling future upgrades and customized configuration of projection and visual presentation systems, while at the same time optimizing current investments in projection, the new X-Port modules of projectiondesign Based on front and rear connectivity extensions, they offer large new connectivity and image processing options. The new X-Port modules are designed for use with the new F35 projectors, F85 and FL35 using projectiondesign's Magnesium electronic platform.

X-Port is a small, unique module-based extension that allows easy connectivity to and from current and future formats, as well as supplemental image processing. Discrete devices easily plug into the back of the projector.

Anders Løkke, Marketing Director of projectiondesign, has targeted: “X-Port allows the user to update a projector with new inputs, Outputs and image processing technologies to keep you in line with the latest technological advances, preserving the highest image quality and optimizing the return on investment in projection systems. X-Port meets users' connectivity and processing requirements as a complement to standard connectivity and is designed to meet individual installation needs.”

DCC120 combiner and 3G-SDI interface

X-Port is available as two modules, a DCC120 dual-channel combiner and a 3G-SDI interface.

The DCC120 functions as an image processor and an image rate converter, and can transform passive to active 3D stereo, as well as converting any input signal or a combination of signals to 120 Sequential Hz, essential for many applications with fast-moving objects or 3D stereo visualization.

3G-SDI interface supports 3G broadband SDI, as well as standard SDI for cable lengths up to 300 metre. The 3G-SDI can be combined with the DCC120 to enable active stereo 3G-SDI for many high-end applications.

Future connectivity adds HDMI 1.4a with all its benefits, as well as other emerging formats and technologies.

“X-Port is the perfect solution to save money, Time & Resources, while meeting new technological or market requirements, either in stereoscopic 3D, Multimedia & Entertainment, Attractions for visitors, Training and simulation, scientific visualization or enterprise AV”, Løkke ends.
