The OTT 1814 is a compact four channel SDI to fiber transmitter designed to optimize the distribution of uncompressed broadcast quality video signals over long distances.
When paired with a compatible 3G-SDI receiver (e.g. yellobrik ORR 1804, ORR 1802, ORX 1802 ) it creates a very cost-effective 4-channel optical transmission system for signals up to 3G-SDI preserving full uncompressed quality.
The OTT 1814 has four fully independent channels and each will auto-detect and re-clock any 270Mbit/s, 1.5Gbit/s or 3Gbit/s SDI source before optical transmission. The module is fully compatible with 3G Level A and Level B formats.
Like all yellobriks, the OTT 1814 is fully compatible with the RFR 1200 rack frame which accommodates up to 14 modules. This allows up to 56 channels in 2RU of rack space for system installations.
