New form factor means easy, durable installations

CHATSWORTH, CA – The new GefenPRO 3G SDI Fiber Optics Extender offers a long-range method of extending any 3G SDI source, far exceeding previous distance limitations. This sender/receiver system is packaged in a small dongle format, offering a rugged construction with a small footprint that can be installed anywhere in true plug and play fashion.

Sender and receiver units are connected to the 3G SDI source and the remote destination up to 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) away. A single-mode fiber optics cable terminated in ST connections links the source (sender) to the destination (receiver), offering a clear video signal transmission for a stellar performance.

All standard and high definition SDI formats are supported including the newest 3G SDI format. Supported resolutions include 1080p, 1920×1200 and 2k. Latch locking power connectors on both sender and receiver units eliminate potential disconnects in the field. The die-cast metal enclosure means this system will handle challenging environments with ease. Automatic input equalization and output re-clocking further enhance performance.

As a GefenPRO product, the 3G SDI Fiber Optics Extender includes 24/7 customer support from trained technical service representatives at Gefen.
