Features & Specifications
Product Overview +
4-Channel Fiber to SDI Conversion
The FiDO-4R converts incoming single-mode LC fiber signals into four independent 3G-SDI outputs, enabling efficient distribution of multiple video feeds from fiber infrastructure to SDI-based systems.
Independent Channel Operation
Each of the four fiber-to-SDI paths operates independently, allowing simultaneous delivery of multiple signals without interference. This is ideal for multi-camera workflows and multi-feed production environments.
Long-Distance Fiber Reception
Supports transmission distances up to 10 km (32,808 ft) over standard single-mode fiber, making it suitable for broadcast facilities, remote production, and large-scale installations.
Multi-Format SDI Support
Compatible with 3G, HD, and SD-SDI formats. The unit automatically adapts to supported input signals without requiring manual configuration.
4K and UltraHD Workflow Support
Enables 4K and UltraHD-SDI workflows by transporting signals across four fiber links, supporting high-resolution production environments where multiple channels are used together.
HDR Metadata Pass-Through
Preserves HDR metadata across the conversion path, ensuring accurate high dynamic range video reproduction and maintaining image integrity.
Flexible Fiber Connectivity
Supports either four simplex LC fiber inputs or two duplex LC connections, providing flexible cabling options for different system designs.
Electrical Isolation
Provides electrical isolation between connected systems, helping eliminate ground loop issues and improving signal stability in complex broadcast environments.
Compact and Portable Design
The low-profile enclosure is designed for installation in tight spaces such as racks, trucks, or camera rigs, making it suitable for both fixed and mobile setups.
Reliable Power and Operation
Operates on a 5–20V DC universal power supply with a locking connector to ensure stable and uninterrupted operation in professional workflows.
