NovaStar H_4x DVI Input Card
The H_4x DVI Input Card provides four DVI inputs for NovaStar H-Series modular video wall processors, supporting both single link and dual link operating modes. In single link mode all four connectors carry input at up to 2048x1152@60Hz each; in dual link mode connectors 2 and 4 are used at up to 3840x1080@60Hz each while connectors 1 and 3 are disabled. It supports 10-bit sources and 144Hz input, is HDCP 1.4 compliant, and works with the H2, H5, H9, H15, and H20 processors.

Ideal Applications
Perfect for a wide range of professional LED display scenarios
Integrating legacy PCs, media servers, and playback systems with DVI outputs
Control rooms and command centers still standardized on DVI signal chains
High-refresh-rate (up to 144Hz) sources where DVI is the available output
Wide-canvas content fed over dual link DVI at up to 3840x1080
Why a DVI input card?
Plenty of professional sources and existing installations still rely on DVI, and this card keeps that gear in play. It gives you four single link inputs for everyday signals, or you can switch to dual link to pull higher-bandwidth feeds up to 3840x1080@60Hz on two of the connectors.
Choose this card when your sources output DVI and you need flexibility between many standard inputs versus fewer high-bandwidth ones. With 10-bit and 144Hz support it also suits high-refresh or color-critical DVI sources, while HDCP 1.4 keeps protected content compliant.
