The flexibility to unlock workflows
KONA LHi provides a wide variety of formats, frame rates and audio/video
sources for the connectivity you need. KONA LHi bridges the gap between
analog devices and the latest 3G SDI and HDMI-enabled products to
provide editing, monitoring and mastering of professional quality video
in an affordable, powerful, easy to use product.
Versatile connectivity Connecting to everything from an HDMI-enabled camera to an HD-SDI
VTR, KONA LHi offers a full host of no-compromise features, including
10-bit or 8-bit uncompressed video, 2-channel AES digital audio and
8-channel SDI embedded digital audio, analog composite or S-video or
SD/HD component video I/O, and 2-channel balanced analog audio I/O. Integrated AJA hardware conversion
Like the KONA 3G, KONA LHi features full 10-bit, broadcast quality,
motion-adaptive SD to HD up conversion, HD to HD cross conversion, HD to
SD down-conversion, and automatic HD/SD 12-bit component analog output.
Since KONA LHi's conversions are hardware-based, they are available all
the time - during ingest or playback.
Outputs can be configured independently allowing you to have
simultaneous HD and SD output - or two different types of HD: 720 or
1080 - output at the same time via cross-conversion. Extensive software support
KONA LHi is supported by an extensive list of professional software for
editing, visual effects, graphics and more allowing the same KONA LHi
card to be used by many different applications on the same system. In
addition, AJA provides several free applications that enable you to
utilize the power of the KONA LHi card even without having to run a
particular software package. This allows you to create unique workflows
without tying up valuable resources unnecessarily.
Extend your connectivity with KLHi-Box
The optional KHLi-Box breakout box let's you integrate KONA LHi easily
into rack environments for quick access to all video and audio
connections. Additional connectivity includes BNC digital AES/EBU
connectors and RCA audio monitoring jacks.

| | Up-Conversion |
- Hardware 10-bit
- Anamorphic: full-screen
- Pillar box 4:3: results in a 4:3 image in center of screen with black sidebars
- Zoom 14:9: results in a 4:3 image zoomed slightly to fill a 14:9 image with black side bars
- Zoom Letterbox: results in image zoomed to fill full screen
- Zoom Wide: results in a combination of zoom and horizontal
stretch to fill a 16:9 screen; this setting can introduce a small aspect
ratio change
| | Down-Conversion |
- Hardware 10-bit
- Anamorphic: full-screen
- Letterbox: image is reduced with black top and bottom added to image area with the aspect ratio preserved
- Crop: image is cropped to fit new screen size
| | Cross-Conversion |
- Hardware 10-bit
- 1080i to 720P
- 720P to 1080i
- 720P to 1080PsF
| | SD to SD Aspect Ratio |
- Letterbox: This transforms SD anamorphic material to a letterboxed image.
- H Crop: Will produce a horizontally stretched effect on the image; transforms anamorphic SD to full frame
- SD Pillarbox: Will produce an image in the
center of the screen with black borders on the left and right sides and
an anamorphized image in the center
- V Crop: Will transform SD letterbox material to an anamorphic image.
