Features & Specifications
Product Overview +
Fiber to 12G-SDI Conversion
The FiDO-R-12G converts incoming single-mode LC fiber signals into 12G-SDI outputs, enabling reliable signal distribution from fiber infrastructure to SDI-based equipment.
Dual Matching SDI Outputs
The unit provides two identical SDI outputs derived from the same fiber input, allowing signal distribution to multiple devices without the need for additional splitters or distribution amplifiers.
Independent Signal Processing
The fiber input is processed and converted into SDI outputs with stable performance across all supported formats, ensuring consistent and accurate signal delivery.
Long-Distance Fiber Reception
Supports transmission distances up to 10 km (32,808 ft) over standard single-mode fiber, making it suitable for large broadcast facilities, remote production, and long-distance signal transport.
Format-Agnostic SDI Support
Compatible with SDI formats ranging from 270 Mbps up to 12 Gbps, including 12G, 6G, 3G, HD, and SD-SDI. The system automatically adapts to incoming formats without manual configuration.
HDR Metadata Pass-Through
Supports HDR metadata pass-through, ensuring High Dynamic Range information is preserved during fiber-to-SDI conversion for accurate and high-quality video output.
Flexible Fiber Connectivity
Uses a simplex LC fiber input connection, providing a straightforward and efficient integration into existing single-mode fiber infrastructures.
Compact and Portable Design
Designed with a low-profile enclosure that fits easily into tight installations such as racks, trucks, or camera rigs, making it suitable for both fixed and mobile workflows.
Reliable Power and Operation
Operates using a 5–20V DC universal power supply with a locking connector to ensure stable and uninterrupted operation in professional environments.
