The HDMI 2.0 Quad Input Card is a high-performance, field-swappable module for professional AV processors like the Barco Event Master Series. It expands system capabilities by providing four robust HDMI 2.0 connectors for high-resolution source ingestion.
Designed for demanding live event environments and broadcast installations, the card features true \(4K@60Hz\) performance with 4:4:4 colour sampling. It supports up to two simultaneous \(UHD@60p\) inputs via HDMI 2.0 or up to four inputs at \(WQXGA@60p\) over HDMI 1.4a. Additionally, it supports up to 8 embedded audio channels (PCM) and includes full compatibility with HDR10 and HLG standards.
For secure and reliable operation, the module is fully compliant with HDCP 2.2 (and backwards compatible with HDCP 1.x). It simplifies complex AV routing with automatic input acquisition, EDID support for VESA/CEA timings, and customizable resolutions. Many variants also feature screw-in locking ports to prevent cable strain in active rack systems
