Telecast Python 8-Way 4K
The Python 3G is your answer to lowering the cost of digital video distribution, simplifying your cable plant and eliminating all concerns about distance, interference and grounding. The Python 3G converts up to two groups of 8-channels of HD-SDI to fiber optic transport, all in a compact 1 RU frame.
8 channels per 1 RU
Wide range of digital formats
19.4 Mb/s to 3 Gb/s transport
Handles DVB/ASI signals
Immune to pathological data errors
Equalizes coax up to 3 Gb/s
CWDM multiplexing options
Compatible with other Grass Valley HD/SD-SDI transport systems

Ereca Stageracer 2
The Stage Racer 2 is a complete optical fiber transmission solution for every broadcast event ranging from simple OB interconnect to complex star, ring or linear topology spread over a whole TV compound. Remote production capacity also allows the exchange of content with distant locations.
The Stage Racer 2 is designed to accept all kinds of signals on the same device without external adapter.
Internally those signals can be grouped/routed/distributed to all other machines of the network.
Only 2 fibers connected directly on the unit are needed to get full transport capacity.
The Stage Racer 2 also offers processing capabilities with Frame buffering, Audio Embedding/Deembedding, Audio SRC and much more….
The Stage Racer 2 setup is provided with an easy to use web interface or with automation systems (VSM…)
Each unit is capable of transmitting a comprehensive set of signals as follows:
16 SD to 3G bidirectional ports (direction configurable)
8 SD to 12G bidirectional ports (direction configurable)
1 Distributed Genlock (Composite video / Black burst / Tri-level)
16 Bidirectional analog audio for intercom or programme
2 Ethernet 10/100/1000Mbs
2 Data RS 232/422/485
8 Contact closures
4 AES 3 bidirectional (intercom panel compatible)
1 Bidirectional MADI (AES10) Signal (Shared with 2 of the 4 AES connectors)
1 Built in Dante / AES67 audio port with 64 channels support.

Telecast SHED HDX
SHED stands for SMPTE Hybrid Elimination Device, and that is what it is. It is a small adapter that allows you to use ordinary single-mode optical fibre for your HD, 4K and slow-motion camera links and in your venue/facility infrastructure, and eliminate bulky hybrid wire/ fibre.
SHED adapter shown with HDX camera power unit cables. Use two small adapters — one at your base station and one at your camera — and locally power your camera, or use the HDX unit to power the camera through the hybrid tail cable. With the SHED units you can support several cameras on one lightweight fibre cable.
Allows the use of conventional single-mode fiber cable
Uses common SMPTE ST 304 connectors for a hybrid link
Extends manufacturer’s distance limits of the camera/CCU
Supports Sony cameras
Built-in optical power meter
Cameras Supported: Sony 1500/1500R/2500/4300

Plexsis 8-Way 4K
Plexsis provides transport of 8 SDI (HD, 3G and SD) signals over a single optical fibre, and up to 16 when linking two systems, the Plexsis is available in two configurations (8 channels on one direction or 4 in both directions), with each of these available in the high or low wavelength band. All SDI ports are fully re-clocked, meaning that jitter caused by long coaxial runs will not affect the maximum optical run length and vice versa.The front panel OLED screen displays optical power, SDI signal presence, temperature and system voltages, and alarms can be set up to trigger an audible tone or relay contact closure, giving peace of mind when it comes to detecting and resolving distance, grounding and interference issues.
8 x 3G-SDI over one fibre
Automatic cable equalisation
Multi-rate re-clocking with automatic rate detection
Both AC and DC power inputs provides flexibility and power redundancy
Supports SD, HD and 3G SDI
Wide DC input range 9-36V
Full colour front panel display
Optical expansion port

Aja FS-HDR Converter
FS-HDR, a 1RU, rackmount, universal converter/frame synchronizer, is designed specifically to meet the High Dynamic Range (HDR) and Wide Color Gamut (WCG) needs of broadcast, OTT, production, post, and live event AV environments, where real time, low latency processing and color fidelity is required for 4K/UltraHD and 2K/HD workflows. Developed in partnership with Colorfront, the FS-HDR’s HDR/WCG functionality is powered by Colorfront Engine™ proprietary video processing algorithms.
In Single Channel Mode, FS-HDR also serves as a full, 1-Channel up, down, cross-converter for 4K/UltraHD/2K/HD HDR/WCG transformation. In 4-Channel Mode, FS-HDR offers 4 independent channels of 2K/HD HDR/WCG transformations as well as up, down, and cross conversions.
