SBS acquires DK-Technologies sync generators, change-over units

South Korea’s Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS) has purchased seven DK-Technologies PT5300 HD-SD VariTime sync generators and three PT5211 VariTime change-over units.

The units were chosen by SBS, one of four major broadcasters in the country, following a competitive tender. They will be used in two new HD OB vans and one new HD-capable studio.

DK-Technologies’ PT5300 is a modular, multistandard HD and SD genlockable sync generator with front-panel and remote control. It supports 21 HD formats in addition to SD-SDI (525/625), standard B-Burst PAL and NTSC.

The PT5211 modular change-over unit accepts both analog and digital video signals. AES3 and change-over operation can be in either manual or auto-sense mode.
