New Apantac openGear scan converters handle DisplayPort–SDI distribution & conversion

If you use Apantac’s popular DisplayPort, you’ll be happy to know that they’ve expanded their line of openGear scan converters to handle distribution and conversion from DisplayPort to SDI, and SDI to DisplayPort. Because the US military has decided that the DisplayPort is more secure than HDMI, these two new universal scaler cards, the OG-US-5500 and OG-US-6000, will be especially useful in setups where security is of the utmost importance.Thomas Tang, founder and president of Apantac, speaks with Simon Tillyer from KitPlus at IBC 2025 about Apantac’s openGear lineup of more than 50 cards. In addition to the new universal scalers, Tang also showed a very cost-effective sync package. It includes two openGear cards, a pattern generator, the OG-SYNC, and an auto-changeover, the OG-SYNC-ACO. As a bundle for less than $6,000, everybody can afford to stay in sync.Would you like to find out more about the OG-SYNC, OG-SYNC-ACO, OG-US-5500, and OG-US-6000 cards mentioned in this video?
