This product has been retired.

The Extron Fiber Matrix 6400 3G HD-SDI Board is available as an option for the Fiber Matrix 6400 Modular Fiber Optic Matrix Switcher, and enables connection to local 3G-SDI-equipped devices. This board offers an 8x8 configuration for switching and distribution of signals up to 2.97 Gbps, including 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, and SDI. With this board, the Fiber Matrix 6400 can be configured as a dedicated 3G-SDI matrix switcher up to 64x64, or a combination of SDI and fiber optic matrix switching. The Fiber Matrix 6400 3G HD-SDI Board is compliant with SMPTE 259M, 292M, 424M, and ITU digital video standards.

The Fiber Matrix 6400 3G HD-SDI Board is hot-swappable, and each input and output is individually buffered to maximize performance with virtually no crosstalk. To optimize signal transmission to and from the board, input signals are automatically equalized, and output signals are reclocked.

The Fiber Matrix 6400 3G HD-SDI Board enables a local BNC connection to the FOX HD-SDI fiber optic extender for 3G-SDI. Incoming signals from the FOX HD-SDI can then be routed to the board's BNC outputs, or through the fiber optic outputs to remote FOX HD-SDI units. Similarly, incoming fiber optic signals from the FOX HD-SDI can be output on fiber or BNC. In broadcast and production applications, a 3G-SDI-equipped Fiber Matrix 6400, together with several FOX HD-SDI units, offers expanded opportunities for system integration. For example, the Fiber Matrix 6400 can be used to route signals to and from local editing equipment, while also providing the capability to receive or transmit 3G-SDI signals very long distances to devices in remote locations, such as cameras and production monitors.

Features

Automatically adapts to SMPTE and ITU digital video standards for 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, and SDI — Complies with SMPTE 259M, 292M, 424M, and ITU digital video standards.

Supports data rates from 270 Mbps to 2.97 Gbps

3G-SDI I/O board for the Fiber Matrix 6400

Passes embedded audio, ancillary ID and metadata information, and SD/HD-SDTI digital video signals — Passes all data allowed within published SMPTE and ITU digital video standards, including embedded audio, ancillary ID and metadata information, and SDTI (SMPTE 305M) and HD-SDTI (SMPTE 348M) digital video signals.

Input equalization and reclocking on buffered outputs — Automatically equalizes incoming transmissions, and reshapes and restores signals on the buffered outputs.

Hot-swappable — Boards can be added or removed at any time, without the need to power down the matrix switcher.

Individually buffered inputs and outputs

Note: The Fiber Matrix 6400 3G HD-SDI Board is designed for use with the Fiber Matrix 6400 and is not compatible with the FOX Matrix Switchers.
