Kramer Electronics has introduced the VS-88FO matrix switcher for 3G HD-SDI signals, utilising fibre cabling, with a maximum data rate of 3Gbps.
The VS-88FO features single mode SFP (Small Form-Factor
Pluggable) SDI fibre optic connectors for the inputs and
the outputs.
Its multiple memory locations store multiple
switches as presets (salvos), to be recalled and executed
when needed. The unit’s vertical interval switching synchronizes
either to an external reference or to the incoming
video.
The unit can reach a range of up
to 40km (24 miles), depending on the SFP module
used, and is compatible with the 690T & 690R Transmitter & Receiver.
