The 500DA2Q-3G Dual 3G/HD/SD-SDI Reclocking Distribution Amplifier provides the highest density DA in the industry allowing up to 32 3Gb/s, HD-SDI or SD-SDI Distribution amplifiers in a 3RU rack space. This module provides inexpensive distribution of your SMPTE ST 424 (3Gb/s), SMPTE ST 292-1 (1.5Gb/s), SMPTE ST 259 (270Mb/s), DVB-ASI or SMPTE ST 310 (19.4Mb/s) or any other SDI signal within the 143Mb/s to 1.5Gb/s range. The 500DA2Q-3G features two auto-equalized inputs and can be individually set via jumpers for either reclocking or non-reclocking. The 500DA2Q-3G is housed in the 500FR frame that will hold up to 16 modules.
Normal reclocked mode for SMPTE ST 424 (3Gb/s), SMPTE ST 292-1 (1.5Gb/s) and SMPTE ST 259 (270Mb/s)
Jumper selectable non-reclocked mode for all other SMPTE ST 344, SMPTE ST 259, SMPTE ST 310 and DVB-ASI data rates
Fully hot-swappable from front of frame with no BNC disconnect required
Independent isolated output drivers to ensure no cross channel loading effects (i.e. no need to terminate unused outputs)
Outputs maintain polarity from input to output for DVB-ASI applications
Tally output on Frame Status bus upon loss of input signal for quality monitoring
VistaLINK® capable for remote monitoring via SNMP (using VistaLINK® PRO) when installed in 500FR frame with 500FC VistaLINK® Frame Controller
2 inputs; 4 reclocked outputs per input
SMPTE ST 424 (3Gb/s), SMPTE ST 292-1 (1.5Gb/s), SMPTE ST 259 (270Mb/s) when set to reclocking mode
SMPTE ST 344 (540Mb/s), SMPTE ST 259 (360Mb/s, 143Mb/s), SMPTE ST 310 (19.4Mb/s), DVB-ASI when not reclocking
