Studio Technologies Model 400A-6T/6R SDI-Over-Fiber Transport System

Introduction to the Studio Technologies Model 400A-6T/6R
The Studio Technologies Model 400A-6T/6R SDI-Over-Fiber Transport System represents a state-of-the-art solution for efficiently transmitting digital video signals across various distances. Ideal for use in remote trucks, live events, and stationary broadcast links, this rack-mounted device ensures reliable and high-quality video distribution. The system's ability to support all standard broadcast serial digital video formats makes it a versatile choice for today’s dynamic media environments.

Advanced Signal Conversion
Equipped with powerful capabilities, the Model 400A-6T/6R facilitates both electrical-to-optical (E2O) and optical-to-electrical (O2E) conversions. This dual functionality allows the system to manage 6 SD/HD/3G-SDI inputs converted to 2 single-mode optical outputs, and similarly, 2 single-mode optical inputs to 6 SD/HD/3G-SDI outputs. This comprehensive handling of SDI signals underscores its utility in complex broadcast setups.

Robust Connectivity Options
The Model 400A-6T/6R is designed with robust connectivity features, including BNC SDI input, loop through, and output connectors, as well as ST optical input and output connectors. These connections support a seamless integration into existing broadcast infrastructures, enhancing the system’s adaptability and easing the setup process for various broadcasting and production scenarios.

Designed for Optimal Performance
This system not only supports a wide range of video standards but is also built to accommodate rigorous operational demands. The incorporation of SMPTE 297 standard for fiber transport and the ability to work seamlessly under both AC mains and DC power highlight its reliability. Additionally, the unit’s lightweight "1U" enclosure ensures it is both space-efficient and easy to manage within any rack setup.

Easy Configuration and Monitoring
Configuring and monitoring the Model 400A-6T/6R is straightforward, thanks to its Ethernet connectivity which allows for system adjustments and real-time performance analysis via web pages or SNMP. The front panel is intuitively designed with a status display, navigation buttons, power switch, and LED indicators, making it user-friendly even under the pressure of live production environments.
