Description

The BN366 is a compact fibre optic solution designed to transport four independent 3G-SDI signals over two fibres, enabling transparent, high-performance 4K signal links. Operating as either a transmitter (BN366T) or receiver (BN366R), the unit multiplexes two separate wavelengths or services onto each fibre, with each wavelength remaining fully independent. In transmission applications, four SDI signals can be carried in a single direction across two fibres, while the corresponding receiver demultiplexes the signals back into individual 3G-SDI outputs, providing reliable and efficient multi-channel video transport over fibre.
