12G to/from Quad-Link 3G Bi-Directional Converter for UHD Signals
Revision 1.0 Page - 1
1. OVERVIEW
The 7800MDM-12G is a bi-directional multiplexer/demultiplexer for converting UHD signals between quad-
link 3G and 12G SDI. It bridges the gap between quad-link and native 12G equipment in UHD
infrastructures.
Features & Benefits
•Converts between 12G (SMPTE ST 2082) SDI and Quad-Link 3G SDI
•Bi-Directional – a single card can be used to wrap a device with both inputs and outputs
•Modular and front accessible – can be hot-swapped without de-cabling
•High Density – bi-directional conversion on a single-slot card
•Dual 12G input (software selectable as to source) and dual 12G outputs for signal distribution
when equipped with optional second input SFP
•VistaLINK capable for remote monitoring, control and configuration capabilities via SNMP using
VistaLINK PRO, CP-2116E or CP-2232E Control Panels. VistaLINK is available when modules are
used with the 7800FR or 7801FR with 7800/7801FC frame controller installed.
•Web GUI for remote monitoring, control and configuration capabilities when modules are used with
the 7800FR or 7801FR with 7800/7801FC frame controller installed.
