Product overview
The Flashlink SDI-EO-2 /SDI-EO-2-RC is an electrical to optical converter
module providing high performance media conversion for various signal
formats from 19.4Mbps up to 540Mbps. Unmatched signal accuracy, even in
critical applications with pathological signal patterns makes the SDI-EO-2 /
SDI-EO-2-RC the first choice for all optical transport demands.
There are two versions of this product, SDI-EO-2 and SDI-EO-2-RC. SDI-EO-2-
RC has reclockers for each channel and cross point functionality. SDI-EO-2
comes without the reclockers and the cross point switch.
The SDI-EO-2 / SDI-EO-2-RC can transport all SD signal formats in addition to
DVB-ASI and SMPTE 310. It performs optical refreshing. High quality optical
transmitters using Fabry-Perot lasers are suitable short and medium haul
applications. The open system platform of Network Electronics Flashlink
system allows easy interoperability with third party fibre optical systems.
The SDI-EO-2 / SDI-EO-2-RC unit has also one electrical output for each
channel, which reduces the need for additional DAs. The electrical input is
equipped with a multi rate cable equaliser providing an equalisation of
typically 300m of high quality coax cable at 270Mbps.

reclockers are not implemented in SDI-EO-2.
