FC-3G-EO/OE-14/28 Rev. C
1 Product overview
The Flashlink compact is a range of low power, low price and small form factor optical
to electrical converters. It can converts up to 28 channels of 3G-SDI in a 1U 19” space.
Both EO and OE converters have an SD/HD/3G-SDI reclocker and supports bypass for
none broadcast bitrates. The Flashlink Compact can be controlled and monitored by
Multicon Gyda or configured to be a standalone converter. The optical is based on
Nevion’s hot pluggable SFP modules. The Flashlink Compact is equipped with an extra
power inlet for dual power supply redundancy, either from an extra SL-PWR-40 or
battery pack.
1.1 Product versions
FC-3G-EO-14 14 channel electrical to optical
converter
FC-3G-EO-28 28 channel electrical to optical
converter
FC-3G-OE-14 14 channel optical to electrical
converter
FC-3G-OE-28 28 channel optical to electrical
converter
FC-3G-EO-OE-28 14 channel electrical to optical
converter and 28 channel optical to
electrical converter
All variants can be delivered with dual power supply and Multicon Gyda control and
monitoring as options.
The Multicon Gyda option does not include a Multicon Gyda module. It only
unlocks the Flashlink Compact to be able to talk to a Multicon Gyda. One
option for each Flashlink compact is necessary.
