HD-4400-CWDM

Each HD–4400–CWDM card will transport 4, 3G,HDSDI Signals over ONE fiber. That one fiber can be patched to anotherHD–4400–CWDM combining another four signals onto one fiber, for a totalof 8. The optical output of the second cards can be linked to a thirdcard, a fourth and fifth for a total of 18, 3G, HDSDI over one fiber.For example, one OpenGear frame can transport 36 3G, HDSDI over justtwo fiber or 18 bi–directional signals.

This level of density, redundancy and controlis unprecedented.

This high density, multirate, 3G HD–SDI SMPTE fiber optictransport system with a 4x4 matrix on both the transmitter and receiveris one of the first products MultiDyne has designed as part of itsparticipation in the openGear terminal equipment platform group.Founded by Ross Video, the openGear platform is based on an openarchitecture, 2RU modular frame designed to accommodate up to 10 cardsin the DFR–8310 frame and up to 20 cards in the DFR–8320 frame. TheHD–4400 will give customers another option for fiber optic transportwithout the need to invest in multiple frame standards.

Ideal for high–capacity fiber trunking of 3G HD–SDI signals in abroadcast facility, the HD–4400 transmitter card accepts four multirateHD–SDI electrical signals with speeds of 5 Mb to 3 Gb per second asinputs. These inputs are equalized, re–clocked and converted to fouroptical outputs. The receiver card accepts four fiber optic inputs andconverts them to four fiber optic electrical outputs, which arere–clocked and line buffered. Both the transmitter and receiver cardsinclude a 4x4 matrix switcher to cross connect any of the four inputand output channels.

The HD–4400’s 4x4 switching and cross–connect feature provides 3G HDsignal routing and automatic redundancy capability. The system can alsotransport four redundant 3G HD–SDI feeds with automatic protectionswitching, supporting SDI, HD–SDI, 3G HDSDI, DVB, ASI and SMPTEstandards 424M, 292M, 259M and 310M.

Several model variations of the HD–4400 will also be available fromMultiDyne, providing a variety of fiber transport and switching optionsfor customers including the HD–4300, triple 3G HD–SDI option with a 3x3switch for openGear, the HD–4200 dual 3G–HDSDI with a 2x2 switch foropenGear and a HD–4100 single 3G HD–SDI model with one 3G HD–SDIchannel and no switch or protection switching.
