3G-SDI /RS232 over IP Extender with PoE

The MuxLab 500756 – 3G-SDI /RS232 over IP Extender with PoE allows easy extension and distribution of broadcast quality SDI, HD-SDI or 3G-SDI video with embedded audio over local area networks (LAN).
This low-latency and versatile extender kit consists of individual transmitter and receiver units which can be configured in a variety of combinations. It is a cost effective alternative to a dedicated SDI matrix switch. The 3G-SDI over IP extender allows users to send any SDI signals over CAT5/6 cable infrastructure instead of using the traditional SDI coax infrastructure, saving cable cost and making installation easy and fast.

3G-SDI 1×4 Splitter

The 3G-SDI 1×4 Splitter (500719) allows one (1) 3G/HD/SD-SDI source to be distributed and amplified to up to four (4) 3G/HD/SD-SDI displays. The splitter supports up to 1080p video, including 480i (SD-SDI), 720p/1080i (HD-SDI), and 1080p (3G-SDI). The device automatically detects the 3G/HD/SD-SDI signal and re-clocks and regenerates the signal at the output for extending distances between source and displays.

12G-SDI 1×6 Splitter

The 12G-SDI 1×6 Splitter, 4K/60 (500718) allows one (1) 12G/6G/3G/HD/SD-SDI source to be distributed and amplified to up to six (6) 12G/6G/3G/HD/SD-SDI displays. The splitter supports up to 4K (3840 X 2160) video and HD audio, including 480i (SD-SDI), 720p/1080i (HDSDI), 1080p (3G-SDI), 4K/30 (6G-SDI) and 4K/60 (12G-SDI).
The device automatically detects the 12G/6G/3G/HD/SD-SDI signal and re-clocks and regenerates the signal at the output for extending distances between source and displays. Additionally, all connectors are on the rear panel for neater cabling.

6G-SDI Fiber Extender Kit

The 6G-SDI Fiber Extender Kit allows 6G-SDI to be transmitted up to 60,000ft (20km) via a one singlemode fiber cable in a point-to-point configuration at all specified bit rates.

The 6G-SDI Fiber Extender Kit supports transmission of up to 6.0Gbps of digital video within television broadcasting facilities and between professional video equipment.

6G-SDI Extender over Fiber Optic with Return Channe

The 6G-SDI Extender over Fiber Optic with Return Channel is a unique solution from MuxLab for extending SDI cameras or other SDI sources in up to 4K resolutions to a distance of up to 400m (1300ft) using OM4 multi-mode fiber (model 500734), 10km (33,000ft) using single-mode fiber (model 500734-SM10), 40km (132,000ft) using single-mode fiber (model 500734-SM40), and 80km (264,000ft) using single-mode fiber (model 500734-SM80).

6G-SDI Extender over Fiber Optic

The 6G-SDI Extender over Fiber Optic is a unique solution from MuxLab for extending SDI cameras or other SDI sources in up to 4K resolutions to a distance of up to 985ft (300m) using OM3 fiber (model 500732), up to 1300ft (400m) using OM4 fiber (model 500732), up to 33,000ft (10km) using single mode fiber (model 500732-SM10), up to 132,000ft (40km) using single mode fiber (model 500732-SM40), and up to 264,000ft (80km) using single mode fiber (model 500732-SM80). This product allows for versatile combinations of sources, such as one 6G SDI source, two 3G-SDI sources, or four HD-SDI sources.

6G-SDI Extender

The 6G-SDI Extender is a unique solution from Muxlab for extending SDI based cameras or other SDI sources up to 4K resolution with the added benefit of extending the Hi Resolution signal up to 330ft (100m).

Standard Cat5e/6 UTP cable is used for the extension. The 6G-SDI Extender supports PoE, whereby the Transmitter may be powered by the Receiver. The product allows for versatile combinations of sources, including one 6G‑SDI source, two 3G-SDI sources or four HD-SDI sources.

6G-SDI Extender over UTP

The 6G-SDI Extender over UTP is a unique solution from MuxLab for extending SDI cameras or other SDI sources up to 4K resolution at up to 330ft (100m) using standard Cat5e/6 UTP cable.
This multichannel extender supports up to 6Gbps of data throughput over the UTP link and allows for versatile combinations of sources, including one 6G-SDI source, two 3G-SDI sources or four HD-SDI sources, plus transmission of two Ethernet signals which may be used as return channels, and a bi-directional RS232 pass-through. The Ethernet port of the 500733 can be used for AV monitoring and talk-back, while the RS232 pass-through supports return of tally light, camera control unit (CCU) and control of end devices.

3G-SDI to HDMI Converter

The 3G-SDI to HDMI Converter (500717) allows SDI equipment to be connected to an HDMI Display. The 3G-SDI to HDMI Converter converts the SDI signal back to HDMI, supporting resolutions of 480i (SD-SDI), 720p/1080i (HD-SDI) and 1080p (3G-SDI). The 3G-SDI to HDMI Converter provides a low jitter and re-clocked outputs allowing for unit daisy chain.
