Product Overview +

High-Density Distribution with Built-In Signal Quality Assurance

The Evertz 7800IDA8 and 7800IDA8-3G are intelligent 1x8 reclocking distribution amplifiers designed for mission-critical broadcast facilities, master control environments, and mobile production trucks. Combining long-reach cable equalization with multi-stage reclocking and comprehensive signal fault detection, these modules go beyond traditional distribution to safeguard video and audio streams across complex infrastructures.

Comprehensive Video and Audio Telemetry

Unlike traditional distribution amplifiers, the 7800IDA8 series actively monitors video and embedded audio parameters to identify transmission issues before they impact broadcast output:

Video Diagnostics: Real-time detection and alarm reporting for Video Loss, Black Frame, and Frozen Video conditions.
Audio Diagnostics: Continuous telemetry for Audio Loss, Audio Clipping (Over), and Silence (Under) conditions.
VistaLINK® NMS Control: Integrated SNMP reporting via Evertz Frame Controllers enables centralized remote tracking and automated signal health alerts.

Flexible Audio Processing Upgrades

The module supports modular software options that transform a single distribution point into an integrated audio processing engine:

IntelliTrak™ Lipsync Control (+IT): Award-winning automatic audio-to-video delay compensation.
Loudness Control (+IG): Maintains ITU-R BS.1770 / EBU R128 loudness compliance across broadcast channels.
Upmixing & Downmixing (+UMX / +DMX): Seamlessly converts 2-channel stereo to 5.1 surround sound or downmixes 5.1 surround feeds to stereo formats.
Embedded Audio Shuffling: Enables flexible remapping and shuffling of mono audio channels across streams (+UMX, +DMX, or +IG options).
