Introduction
The H9 is NovaStar’s newest generation of video wall splicer, featuring excellent image quality and designedespecially for fine-pitch LED screens. The H9 can work as splicing processors that integrate both video processingand video control capabilities, or work as pure splicing processors. The whole unit adopts a modular and plug-indesign, and allows for flexible configuration and hot swapping of input and output cards. Thanks to excellent featuresand stable performance, the H9 can be widely used in a variety of applications, such as energy and power, judicial
departments and prisons, military command, water conservancy and hydrology, meteorologic earthquake prediction,
enterprise management, metallurgy of steel, banking and finance, national defense, public security traffic
management, exhibitions and presentations, production scheduling, radio and television, educational and scientificresearch, as well as stage rental applications.
Based on the powerful hardware FPGA system architecture, with a modular and plug-in design, the H9 featuresastable and highly efficient pure hardware architecture, and provides a variety of connector modules for flexibleandpersonalized configuration, allowing for easy maintenance and low failure rate. The H9 provides the industry-standardinput connectors, including HDMI, DVI, DP, VGA, CVBS, SDI and IP, and supports 10-bit video source input andprocessing, as well as 4K high-definition inputs and outputs. The H9 also provides two kinds of LED 4K sendingcards, allowing for the backup between the OPT ports and Ethernet ports as well as ultra-long distance transmission.
Moreover, the H9 supports multi-screen and multi-layer management, input and output EDID management andmonitoring, input source renaming, BKG and OSD settings and more, bringing you a rich image construction experience.
In addition, the H9 adopts the B/S architecture and supports cross-platform, cross-system access and control without
the need to install an application program. On a Windows, Mac, iOS, Android or Linux platform, online collaborationof multiple users is supported and the Web page response speed is very fast, which greatly improves on-sitesetupefficiency. What’s more, the H9 supports online firmware update, allowing for easy hardware update on a PC.
