BC370T

Quad Electrical to Optical Transmitter 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI, ASI

Description

Quad Electrical to Optical Transmitter 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI, ASI The BC370T is a transmitter card for the conversion of four independent 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI and ASI signals into fibre optical cable. Each incoming signal is auto-sensed and then equalised prior to conversion and transmission down a separate single optical fibre. All Bluebell cards are designed to retain maximum integrity of the signal path offering excellent jitter free optical transport. Each channel will automatically operate in non-reclocking bypass mode when a non standard SDI signal is presented and handles data rates up to 3 Gb/s. The BC370T is available in multimode, singlemode, WDM and CWDM variants to suit any fibre application. The BC370T occupies a single slot in the BC100-3RU 19″ rack-mounting frame which can hold up to 15 single slot cards. Some BC Series processing cards have dual functionality allowing up to 30 channels of video to be transmitted or received from a single 3RU frame. Signal and card monitoring is achieved through SNMP monitoring in the BM102i network card, or through the BM102i network monitoring webpages. For stand alone applications the BC370T can be housed in an individual rugged enclosure.
