Blackmagic design SDI Expander 8x12G

Informatie

Blackmagic SDI Expander 8x12G converts in 2 directions at the same time! It converts 8 independent channels of 12G-SDI to SMPTE-2110, while simultaneously converting a separate set of 8 channels of SMPTE-2110 back to 12G-SDI. That's 16 channels of conversion in a single rack unit! The SMPTE-2110 connections use two 100G Ethernet ports for full SMPTE-2022-7 redundancy. There is also a separate NMOS control Ethernet port and dual redundant AC power supplies for reliable broadcast operation.
