Change History

Introduction

The H9 is NovaStar's newest generation of video wall splicer, featuring excellent image quality and designed especially for fine-pitch LED screens. The H9 can function as splicing processors that integrate both video processing and video control capabilities, or as pure splicing processors. The unit features a modular and plug-in design, allowing for flexible configuration and hot-swapping of input and output cards. Its stable performance makes it suitable for various applications including energy, judicial, military, water conservancy, meteorology, enterprise management, metallurgy, banking, finance, national defense, public security, exhibitions, production scheduling, radio and television, educational and scientific research, and stage rental.

Built on a powerful hardware FPGA system architecture with a modular and plug-in design, the H9 offers a stable and highly efficient pure hardware architecture. It supports a variety of connector modules for flexible and personalized configuration, ensuring easy maintenance and a low failure rate. The H9 provides industry-standard input connectors such as HDMI, DVI, DP, VGA, CVBS, SDI, and IP. It supports 10-bit video source input and processing, as well as 4K high-definition inputs and outputs. The H9 also offers three types of LED 4K sending cards, enabling backup between OPT ports and Ethernet ports, and supporting ultra-long distance transmission. It further supports multi-screen and multi-layer management, input/output EDID management and monitoring, input source renaming, BKG and OSD settings, providing a rich image construction experience.

The H9 utilizes a B/S architecture, supporting cross-platform, cross-system access and control without requiring application installation. It is compatible with Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Linux platforms, supporting online collaboration for multiple users with fast web page response speeds, enhancing on-site setup efficiency.
