The Best Solution for SD capture and playback—with AJA quality at an affordable price.
Now quality standard definition video capture and playback isn’t just for the big guys. The affordably priced KONA LS is the perfect engine for a professional Final Cut Pro editing system. AJA has made a significant investment in the development of exceptional KONA hardware, making KONA cards the preferred choice for performance and stability in the broad-cast industry. Now, with KONA LS, everyone can enjoy the features, rock-solid video/audio, and factory support that exemplify AJA products.
KONA LS does away with the need to spend serious money on a nonlinear editing suite. This affordable card, when configured with the Apple Power Mac™ G4 and G5, RAID storage, computer display, and video monitor—along with Final Cut Pro 5, achieves the same editing quality as an expensive turnkey suite.
Like the KONA LH, the LS supports 10-bit resolution SMPTE SDI, using a QuickTime compatible format. KONA LS also has great audio I/O support: balanced analog, AES, and embedded SDI audio. KONA LS includes hardware sample-rate conversion on AES inputs—eliminating source synchronizing requirements. And the optional KL-Box for KONA LS provides all the standard features of the cable in an easy-to-use rackmount panel.
LSe or LS—Choose Your Card for Your Macintosh Type (Same Features and Price)
KONA LS is available in two models that differ only in their bus interface. The KONA LSe model has a PCIe interface (PCI Express four lane x4) for use with the latest PCIe Apple Power Macs. The KONA LS model is a PCI card that plugs into a G4 or G5 PCI or PCI-X chassis. Both models work with Final Cut Studio and other applications to provide a professional editing suite, corporate/industrial video center, or high-powered desktop video setup. Same features, same LS driver software, same wonderful price—the choice is your's.
Flexible I/O Options

KONA LS offers unsurpassed cable connectivity for a video/audio capture card. Simply plug in the supplied breakout cable. The breakout cable in addition to the connectors on the card endplate together offer:
  • SDI input (BNC)
  • 2 SDI outputs (2x BNC, independent outputs)
  • Reference Input (BNC)
  • Component/Composite/S Video Input (3x BNC)
  • Component/Composite/S Video Output (3x BNC)
  • AES In (1x XLR)
  • AES Out (1x XLR)
  • Balanced Audio In (2x XLR)
  • Balanced Audio Out (2x XLR)
  • RS-422 Machine Control (9 pin D)
Note: the KONA LS and LSe each have different breakout cables and endplates on the card. Although different, they each offer the same connections as listed above.
Also available for the KONA LS and LSe is the optional KL-Box.
