SFC-6901

• Supports SD to 12G-SDI, plus ASI
• Flexible SFP options
  • 2 SFPs for  up to 4 fiber links
  • Each SFP can be provisioned with dual transmit, dual receive or transceiver SFP
  • Select from 3G or 12G capable SFPs to suit the application and budget
  • 1310nm and standard sensitivity receiver SFPs available for short-haul links
  • CWDM lasers (16 wavelengths) and high-sensitivity receivers available for multiplexing, fibre-conservations and longer link budgets
• With the ability to host two SFPs for a total for four 12G lanes, a single card can be used as TX or RX for one complete quad-link 8K signal
• Configurable any-to-any port-mapping between the four HDBNC connectors and the optical ports, including:
  • One-to-one optical to/from electrical
  • Electrical or optical distribution
  • Electrical or optical loop-outs
• Onboard gearbox with multiple uses:
  • Quad 2SI 3G <-> 12G conversion and fiber transport for UHD signals
  • Fiber savings: Up to four synchronous HD/3G SDI signals of the same framerate and standard can be combined for transport as a 12G single link
  • When combined with CWDM, up to 64 HD/3G signals can be conveyed over a single mode fiber
  • In gearbox mode, signal transport over fiber is uninterrupted by loss of any electrical input feed
• For optical link redundancy, two optical receive ports can be configured for automatic failover
• Pair with the companion SHC-8932-F to convert SDI to HDMI to feed monitors, display processors, etc.
• Transparently passes embedded AES and all ancillary data
• Hot swappable from the front of the frame without de-cabling any fiber or coax connections
• High-density openGear solution – up to 40 fiber conversion paths per OG3 or OGX frame
• 5-year transferrable warranty

SFP Transceivers

With the ability to select from various SFP transmitter and receiver options, as well as configure the mapping of inputs and outputs using the internal crosspoint, the SHC-6901 can be flexibly configured to suit the needs of many applications.

Point-to-Point Unidirectional

The SHC-6901 can be configured for simple, uni-directional signal transport for signals from SD to 12G over multiple fibers with four channels on each card.

Point-to-Point Bidirectional

A single card may be configured to support bi-directional fiber links over multiple fibers.

Point-to-MultiPoint with Electrical Distribution

Flexible port mapping facilitates multiple electrical and/or optical outputs. In this case, a single 12G SDI source is locally distributed on two loop-outs, and optically distributed to two destination over two fibers. Three electrical outputs are configured at each destination.

Point-to-Point Over Single Fiber using Gearbox

The onboard gearbox may be used to combine up to four synchronous HD signals of the same standard and frame rate over a single, fiber-conserving 12G link.

Point-to-Point Using Gearbox with Optical Failover The transmitter may be configured to output two copies of the same optical signal to accommodate dual/diverse fibre paths. The receive side is configured to treat the two inputs as main and backup for optical failover. The example combines use of the gearbox, but individual signals per fibre may also be configured.
