Broadcast up down cross converter for HD/SD






- Stock: 1
- Code: BS18043
- Model: UP-DOWN-AFDS 3G
Up-Down-A 3G allows flexible up, down and cross conversions
between 3Gb/s, HD and SD sources provides an output picture of exceptional
quality and includes special features to allow studios to easily operate in HD
and SD at the same time - with its ability to perform two different conversions
simultaneously and give out co-timed dual outputs that remain unchanged in
format, even if the input changes.
Up-Down-A 3G regularly wins evaluations on its output picture quality - with the quality so good that it has been specified by some broadcasters as their mandatory up/down/cross converter.
With nine Indigo up/down/cross converters available,
Up-Down-A 3G is the converter to choose for applications involving up to four
groups of embedded audio where signal timing is not required.

INTEGRATED FIBRE OPTIONS
SYNNER-VF can be given integrated fiber connectivity by
fitting the FIP-VF fiber input option, FOP-VF fiber output option or FIO-VF fiber
input and output option. The chosen option should be fitted at the factory
To access the optical inputs or outputs a VR12 (for 110 ohm
AES or analogue audio) or VR13 (for
75 ohm AES) frame rear module must be used FIP-VF, FOP-VF
and FIO-VF meet the SMPTE
297-2006 short-haul specification, allowing operation with
single-mode and multi-mode fiber Connector type: LC
FIP-VF or FIO-VF input:
Optical wavelength: 1260-1620nm
Input level maximum: -1dBm
Input level minimum: Typical -20dBm (-18dBm 3Gb/s
pathological)
FOP-VF or FIO-VF output:
Optical power: Max 0.0dBm, min -5.0dBm
Fiber pigtail: Single-mode 9/125uM
Optical wavelength: 1290-1330nm (1310 typical)
Extinction ratio: 7.5dB
Laser safety classification: Class 1 FDA and IEC60825-1
Laser Safety compliant
Loss of input will automatically disable the laser output.
The output can also be manually enabled and disabled
CWDM laser can be fitted on request. The 18 output
wavelengths defined by the ITU are 1271, 1291, 1311, 1331, 1351, 1371, 1391,
1411, 1431, 1451, 1471, 1491, 1511, 1531, 1551, 1571, 1591 and 1611nm. For
CWDM, order the FOP-CWDM-VF and specify the wavelength required
VIDEO OUTPUTS
Up to three 3Gb/s, HD or SD outputs depending on audio
impedance and frame rear module used
Using single slot VR02 rear module (110 ohm AES or analogue
audio): Three BNC video outputs

outputs
• With FOP-VF fibre output option: Four video
outputs (one on fibre and three on BNC)
• With FIO-VF fibre input and output option: Four
video outputs (one on fibre and three on BNC)
Serial output: 270Mb/s or 1.5Gb/s or 3Gb/s serial compliant
