NovaStar MSD300 - LED Sending Card with 1280 x 1024 Loading Capacity

The MSD300 is a sending card developed by NovaStar. It supports 1x DVI input, 1x audio input, and 2x Ethernet outputs. A single MSD300 supports input resolutions up to 1920x1200@60Hz.

The MSD300 communicates with PC via type-B USB port. Multiple MSD300 units can be cascaded via UART port.

As a highly cost-effective sending card, the MSD300 can be mainly used in the rental and fixed installation applications, such as concerts, live events, security monitoring centers, Olympic Games and various sports centers.
