Professional Video I/O Card
The Aja Video Systems KONA LHe Plus is a PCIe card with an external breakout box built for professional video capture and playback. It handles both HD and SD formats in a single desktop workflow. The card connects digital and analog sources through one unified interface. It suits editors and facilities that need reliable ingest and mastering hardware.
Studios mixing analog and digital sources
This bundle fits workflows that must bridge legacy analog gear with modern SDI pipelines. It provides 10-bit or 8-bit uncompressed video with independent HD and SD output paths. Buyers who need more than one input channel or who require 4K and higher resolutions should look elsewhere. The card does not support multi-channel capture beyond the single input.
10-bit hardware down-conversion
The card performs real-time 10-bit down-conversion with Anamorphic, Letterbox and Crop modes for precise image scaling. This hardware processing preserves quality when delivering HD material to SD outputs. The feature is decisive for broadcast mastering and archive workflows that demand accurate format translation.
