1. Introduction

Based on the Television Standard for Full HD Television, HD-SDI products feature 2 Megapixel (1920x1080)
pictures in real-time (30fps) transmitted over coax cabling.
Get the advantages of an IP technology without their drawbacks. Get 16:9 megapixel pictures without network
configuration, bandwidth problems and network security risks. Use existing coax cables and only exchange the
cameras and recorders. Get a “real” live picture and see the things that happen in the now, not a few seconds
later. Connect a monitor directly to a camera using only a HD-SDI-to-HDMI converter.
HD-SDI products are easy to handle, easy to install and produce amazing high quality pictures.

With its innovative WDR function and digital noise reduction technology, the HD-SDI Box Cameras from GRUNDIG
can offer close-up images with exceptional details even at night time. The camera can stream HD-SDI signals up
to 50/60fps which will give you crystal clear pictures of moving objects.

2. Important Safety Instructions

Be sure to use only the standard adapter that is specified in the specification sheet. Using any other adapter
could cause fire, electrical shock, or damage to the product. Incorrectly connecting the power supply may cause
explosion, fire, electric shock, or damage to the product. Do not connect multiple products to one single adapter.
Exceeding the capacity may cause abnormal heat generation or fire.

Do not place conductive objects (e.g. screwdrivers, coins or any metal items) or containers filled with water on
top of the product. Doing so may cause personal injury due to fire, electric shock, or falling objects.

If any unusual smells or smoke comes out of the unit, stop using the product. In this case, immediately
disconnect the power source and contact the service center. Continued use in such a condition may cause fire or
electric shock.

If this product fails to operate normally, contact the nearest service center. Never disassemble or modify this

4.1. Installation Remarks

Do not install the product in a location subject to high temperature (over 50°C), low temperature (below -10°C),
or high humidity. Doing so may cause fire or electric shock. Keep out of direct sunlight and heat radiation
sources. This may cause fire. Avoid aiming the camera directly towards extremely bright objects such as the sun,
as this may damage the image sensor.

Do not install the unit in humid, dusty or sooty locations. Doing so may cause fire or electric shock. Install it in a
place with good ventilation.

When installing the unit, fasten it securely and firmly. A falling unit may cause personal injury.

If you want to relocate the already installed product, be sure to turn the power off and then move or reinstall it.

English

Connect the HD-SDI Camera to other devices as shown in the diagram to complete a video surveillance solution.
HD-SDI products can be connected through BNC cables. The installation is Plug & Play. There is no further
configuration necessary.
If you do not get a signal, please check whether all cables are connected correctly. The distance of HD-SDI
signals is limited to approx. 100-120m when using a RG59 cable. If you want to use HD-SDI for further distances,
please use either a higher quality cable (RG6 approx. 300m) or the Grundig HD-SDI repeater GTH-K0011E that
will extend the transmitting distance to 200-240m.
