​
HS SAM can be replaced with the new SAM G3 ARINC 818 Stand Alone converter Module.
SAM G3 is a portable converter module that converts ARINC 818 to/from HDMI, therefore allowing you to view ARINC 818 video on a standard computer monitor, or transfer live video from a graphics card onto ARINC 818. SAM Gen 3 HDMI video ports can easily accommodate a DVI interface with an HDMI to DVI adaptor.
