FDT-9648-LC
This chapter presents information on the FDT-9648-LC hardware components and features.
Overview
The FDT-9648-LC is an SDI to fiber optic converter capable of equalizing and re-clocking all common serial digital
signals. Each channel of the module equalizes the incoming SDI signal, re-clocks the signal with automatic rate
detection for all popular data rates. Each channel is fully independent and can run at different data rates.
The FDT-9648-LC provides the ability to transport digital video baseband signals over a fiber optic link, allowing
for longer transport distances. SDI outputs are re-clocked providing excellent jitter and return loss specifications.

POWER Connection
Each module has a standard miniature power jack (center pin positive) that connects to the PS-9000 power supply.
This PWR jack is in the same location on each module regardless of the module type. (
