Bidirectional transceiver
NOTES:
•
In this manual, the term “transceiver” refers to any FOX 3G HD-SDI; the term
“bidirectional transceiver” refers to a FOX 3G HD-SDI configured as described in
this section.
•
Although the description below does allow connection of a FOX 3G HD-SDI
configured as transmitter or receiver, the typical configuration is as shown: two
bidirectional transceivers.
A FOX 3G HD-SDI that is configured as a bidirectional transceiver (see figure 2) inputs
digital video on its SDI/HD-SDI Input BNC. The transceiver converts the video input to a
proprietary signal and transmits the video over a fiber link to another FOX 3G HD-SDI that is
configured as either a bidirectional transceiver or a receiver.

Bidirectional Transceiver Connections
A bidirectional transceiver can also simultaneously receive a proprietary signal from another
transceiver (in any configuration) on its Optical Rx port, convert the proprietary signal back
to the original format digital video, and output the video on its own two Buffered Outputs
BNC connectors.
