BC360R
Optical to Electrical Receiver 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI, ASI
Description
The BC360R is a receiver for the conversion of optical signals into electrical 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, and ASI. The incoming optical signal is fed to a trans-impedance and limiting amplifier before being electrically reclocked on the outputs. All Bluebell cards are designed to retain maximum integrity of the signal path offering excellent jitter free optical transport. Two serial digital signals are available on the output. The BC360R is available in singlemode, WDM and CWDM variants to suit any fibre application. The BC360 cards suit applications where customers wish to keep main and reserve channels on separate physical cards for redundancy. The BC360R occupies a single slot in the BC100i-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 BC360R can be housed in an individual rugged enclosure.
