Features & Specifications
Product Overview +
2-Channel Fiber to 12G-SDI Conversion
The FiDO-2R-12G converts incoming single-mode LC fiber signals into two independent 12G-SDI outputs. Each channel operates separately, enabling simultaneous delivery of two SDI signals from fiber sources.
Independent Dual-Channel Operation
Both fiber-to-SDI paths function independently, allowing flexible signal routing and distribution. This is ideal for workflows requiring multiple synchronized or separate video feeds.
Long-Distance Fiber Reception
The device supports fiber transmission distances up to 10 km (32,808 ft) over standard single-mode fiber, making it suitable for large-scale broadcast environments, remote production, and facility interconnects.
Format-Agnostic SDI Support
FiDO-2R-12G supports a wide range of SDI formats from 270 Mbps up to 12 Gbps, including 12G, 6G, 3G, HD, and SD-SDI. It automatically adapts to incoming signal formats without manual configuration.
HDR Metadata Pass-Through
The unit supports HDR metadata pass-through, ensuring High Dynamic Range information is preserved across the fiber-to-SDI conversion, maintaining image fidelity in HDR workflows.
Flexible Fiber Connectivity
Supports either two simplex LC connections or a single duplex LC connection, providing flexibility in cabling configurations depending on system design requirements.
Compact and Deployment-Friendly Design
The compact, low-profile enclosure allows installation in tight spaces such as racks, mobile production units, or camera rigs, making it suitable for both fixed and portable setups.
Reliable Power and Operation
Powered via a 5–20V DC universal power supply with a locking connector to ensure stable operation in professional environments.
