The AJA KONA 1-S is the short, low-profile version of the KONA 1 capture and playback card. It’s designed for OEM developers and allows the user to make an internal connection for an optional, external RS-422 9-pin connector (while the tall version features an integrated 9-pin connector). The card is Mac/Windows/Linux 2-lane PCIe 2.0-compatible and offers single-channel 3G-SDI 2K/HD 60p frame-accurate input/output and a selectable reference/LTC input. It also allows simultaneous monitoring during capture.
