Digital level devices that mix overlay information into HD video signals via BNC connectors

What the thread found

  • A digital level device can take an HD signal input through BNC, overlay level information onto the video, and output the combined signal through BNC to a monitor, requiring independent power rather than multipair connectors
  • The XCS PDL line offers both analog and HD versions, with the analog model priced lower than the HD model
  • Some digital level devices marketed as level overlays may also function as down converters or cross converters beyond their primary leveling function

Depends on

  • Pricing information is from 2014-2017 and may not reflect current costs
  • The specific capabilities and conversion functions of different models were not fully clarified in the discussion
  • No definitive confirmation was provided about which specific models work with standard BNC HD cable setups
