INTRODUCTION
Atlona Technologies AT-SDI10SR-LC is an ideal and economic solution designed for transmission of multi-rate
SDI video, with embedded audio and metadata over a multi-mode optical fiber cable.
The transmitter module receives one HD-SDI electrical input, perfectly converts SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 259M,
or DVB-ASI electrical SDI signal to multi-mode optic SDI signals. The receiver module receives optical signal
from input LC connector, and then perfectly converts it to electrical SDI signal. Both transmitter and receiver
provide equalizing and re-clocking at input unit in order to re-construct the signal for consistent quality.
Atlona AT-SDI10SR-LC is perfect for today’s broadcast applications, including video production, video editing,
studio to studio and studio to CATV head end. In addition, since transmission of content is inherently secure
and immune to outside interference, fiber applications are favored in government, military, and medical
environments.
FEATURES
• Enables transmission of digital video signal over optical fiber up to 10 km (6.25 miles)
• Automatic cable EQ up to 300m (1000ft) at SD-SDI or 150m (500ft) for HD-SDI
• Standard LC-type fiber optic connector
• Supports following protocols:
• SMPTE 259M (270Mbps)
• SMPTE 259M (360Mbps)
• SMPTE 292M / HDTV (1.485Gbps and 1.485/1.001Gbps)
• DVB ASI (270Mbps)
• Immune to RP-198 pathological patterns
• Automatically reclocked
• One SDI loop-out
• HD-SDI / SDI input signal detection LED
*RECLOCKING FEATURE: A Reclocking feature first equalizes, then extracts a clock from the signal and cleans
up the eye pattern. It is useful to avoid signal loss due to cable length.
PACKAGE CONTENTS
• 1x AT-SDI10SR-LC (sender unit & receiver unit)
• 2x 5V DC power supply unit
• 1x User’s manual
