Mini Converter Optical Fiber
With Mini Converter Optical Fiber you can convert SDI to Optical Fiber and Optical Fiber to SDI
simultaneously. Mini Converter Optical Fiber automatically switches between SD/HD/3G-SDI
video standards and both directions are completely independent. Use this converter if you
need to send and receive SDI signals over longer distances than traditional SDI cables will
support. SD video can be sent up to 45 km or 147000 feet using optical fiber, compared to just
300 feet with copper SDI cables. 3G-SDI can be sent up to 25 km away!
