SKU CH-J8Y5-DZGPT

Four-channel HD video switcher with three SDI and two HDMI inputs, internal interlaced-to-progressive conversion, multiview monitoring, HDCP compliance and USB or RS-232 remote control.

  • Four-channel HD switching with three SDI and two HDMI inputs
  • Interlaced-to-progressive conversion built in for smoother processing
  • HDCP-compliant HDMI and multiview output for protected content
  • USB and RS-232 remote control ports for flexible operation
  • 600D polyester carry bag protects the switcher on the go

4-Channel HD Video Switcher for Live Production

The Roland V-1SDI accepts three SDI inputs and one HDMI input up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz. It handles both progressive and interlaced signals with internal I-to-P conversion. Eight memory presets let operators recall configurations quickly. USB and RS-232 ports provide remote control from a computer or hardware panel.

Fanless Operation with Standard Power Draw

The unit runs without internal fans, so it adds no audible noise to a quiet studio or stage environment. Power consumption remains modest during typical switching tasks. No external cooling or special electrical provisioning is required beyond a standard AC outlet.

CB-BV1 Carry Bag Protects During Transport

The included 600D polyester bag shields the switcher from bumps and knocks while moving between venues. Its fitted interior holds the chassis securely without rattling. A shoulder strap and carry handle give two comfortable carrying options for mobile crews.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the four video sources to the SDI and HDMI inputs, and what is the common mistake with the fourth input?

Connect up to three sources to the SDI inputs and a fourth to the HDMI input supporting up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz; the common mistake is assuming all four inputs accept the same signal types when the fourth also handles SD and computer formats.

What maintenance or replacement will the included carry bag need after extended transport use?

The 600D polyester bag shields the switcher from bumps; inspect the zipper and stitching periodically and replace the bag if the fabric tears or padding compresses enough to expose the unit to knocks.

Which thermal or processing limit appears first during a long live production?

Internal interlaced-to-progressive conversion runs continuously; sustained 60 Hz operation across all channels makes the processing pipeline the first bottleneck before any external port saturates.
