MONTREAL – March 19, 2014 — Matrox® Video today announced the Matrox DSX LE4 PCIe video card, part of the next generation of Matrox DSX™ Developer Products. DSX LE4 is a low-profile, half-length SDI card that offers up to eight reconfigurable I/Os, from SD to 4K. When configured with inputs, the card is equipped with built-in frame synchronizers to generate clean SDI signals for any environment. Along with the comprehensive Matrox DSX SDKs for Windows® or Linux® and unlimited Matrox applications engineering support, the new card provides the I/O flexibility OEMs need to get quickly to market with small-footprint channel-in-a-box systems, video servers, broadcast graphics systems, encoders, transcoders, multiviewers, switchers and other digital media equipment.

The Matrox DSX SDKs offer a common API across all Matrox DSX Developer Products providing a full set of powerful tools including versatile file reading/writing, memory management, streaming synchronization, and a large selection of software codecs and effects. A prototyping tool provides a graphical representation of all hardware components so developers can simulate and test their use cases within minutes, before writing a single line of code.
 
"Leading broadcast equipment manufactures have long come to Matrox for our premium hardware, our dedicated applications engineering support and our superior SDK," said Alberto Cieri, senior director of sales and marketing, Matrox. "With the launch of this new lower-cost card, we are making the Matrox brand accessible for use in a wider variety of products."
 
Matrox products will be demonstrated at CCBN (China International Exhibition Center, Beijing, March 20-22 in Matrox distributor Beijing Jinzhongheng Tech’s booth 5103) and at the 2014 NAB Show (Las Vegas, April 7-10, booth SL5019).
