Lynx Technik yellobrik OTT 1412 Dual Channel 12G SDI to Fiber Transmitter

The OTT 1412 is a compact dual-channel SDI to fiber optic transmitter designed to overcome the limitations associated with distributing uncompressed broadcast-quality video signals over long distances. When paired with the dual-channel fiber optic to SDI receiver (e.g., ORR 1402), it offers a cost-effective optical transmission and receiver system for signals up to 12Gbit/s (4096x2160 @ 60Hz), preserving full uncompressed quality.

Key Features

• Dual independent channels
• Supports 12G, 6G, 3G, and 1.5G SDI video inputs
• 3G Level A and Level B support (all formats)
• Auto reclocking at 1.5G, 3G, 6G, and 12G
• Error-free optical transmission
• Up to 10 km (6.2 miles) transmission at 12Gbit/s over single-mode fiber
• Duplex LC/PC single-mode optical connection
• Supports hot swapping and hot plugging
