HDMI Modulator | QAM RF Coax Output - Full HD up to 1080P - 1,4,8 Channel

Models:
PN: H-THUNDER
Description

H- THUNDER- Supports up to 8 HDMI inputs and its modular design (maximum 8 HDMI inputs) and flexible configuration makes it scalable and very reliable while providing high performance.

The signal source could be from any STB, satellite receiver, closed-circuit television camera, and antenna, etc. Its output signal is designed to work with any TV or STB. Because it comes standard with every RF modulation standard built in, this device can work anywhere in the world in a plug-and-play format. 

This unit is similar to our popular line H-1,2,4 HDMI-QAM-IPLL product line, but it has some differences.It is a less expensive unit, each program is modulated on its own frequency, CATV RF output only, with no IPTV output 

The 8-channel model has 8 HDMI / CVBS -baseband video inputs that can be selected from the menu, so support any HD HDMI source or any analog CVBS source like Analog Video cameras.

This Input can be also used as Input for Closed captioning generated from video devices like DVD players or Cable STB's on CVBS output CC 21
