The OTR 1A42 is a self contained fiber transmission kit for the transport of 4 discreet SDI signals (up to 12G each) over a single fiber optic link. The kit includes the fiber transmitter, fiber receiver and power supplies. This is an ideal solution for the transmission of multiple uncompressed SDI streams.
Each SDI channel is fully independent. For 8K use, the signal is split over 4 separate 12G SDI links (48G) and supports full 8K resolution at 60fps. The system can also be used for any combination of SDI signals, with a mix of formats and bit-rates if required. Each channel will automatically detect and re-clock SDI bit rates of 270Mbit, 1.5Gbit, 3Gbit, 6Gbit and 12Gbit. LED Indicators are provided for channel presence and power. An optional 19” rack mount tray is available which can accommodate up to 4 modules (RFR1018).
A UPG fiber input port is also provided to facilitate expansion, connect a OTR 1A41 and have up to 8 x 12G channels on a single fiber optic link
Note: Internal CWDM optical multiplexing is utilized within the modules. This kit should be considered a self contained point to point solution and should not be integrated into external CWDM systems.
