AJA Kona-XM 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 Ultra-Low Latency PCIe card for medical devices

Information

KONA XM represents a new generation of I/O technology from AJA that allows medical OEM developers to leverage streaming DMA (Direct Memory Access) to ensure ultra-low latency for the most mission-critical video applications, including surgical and medical video hardware devices. KONA XM is designed and certified to be the heart of the next generation medical video technology solutions.

KONA XM is a 4-lane, PCIe 3.0 video I/O card with dual 12G-SDI BNC connections, one for input and one for output, and two full-sized HDMI 2.0 connections, one for input and one for output. KONA XM provides an ultra-low latency design, which enables powerful real time workflows with no perceptible delay on I/O and processing.

KONA XM lets OEM developers achieve sub-frame latencies with GPUDirect DMA; the ability to transfer data from host memory into a hardware accelerator and stream the results back to host memory without using local FPGA memory as a temporary buffer.

KONA XM supports 4K/UltraHD/SD video healthcare innovation by developing world-class video devices that are ideally suited for OEM customers looking for reliable, best-in-class video I/O technology.
