PRO-12GSDI4P
• 12G/6G/3G/HD/SD-SDI distribution
• Four independently buered and reclocked outputs*
• Cable equalization and signal retiming
• LED indication of signal lock and video rate
• Pass ancillary data and embedded audio
• Provides automatic input cable equalization (Belden 1694A)
up to 180m (594ft)@3G, 100m (330ft)@6G and 70m(230ft) @12G
• Reclocking SDI signals for cascading and thus longer
transmission
• Inter-locked power supply for better xedness
2. Features
1. Introduction

The PRO-12GSDI4P 1x4 12G/6G/3G/HD/SD-SDI Distribution
Amplier with Reclocking receives one SDI input, perfectly du-
plicates it, and re-transmits four SDI outputs for real time mul-
ti-viewing. It is a reliable video device splitting an SDI, HD-SDI,
3G-SDI, 6G-SDI, or 12G-SDI video source to four SDI compliant
displays at the same time.
• 1x PRO-12GSDI4P
• 1x 5V power adapter
• 1x BNC 75 ohm terminator
• 1x User Manual
3. Package Contents
Due to the super high frequency and lower jier requirement for 12G
SDI signals, to have the best performance, it is strongly recommended
to use one 75 ohm terminator if the paired SDI in not in use.
Please see the following table for 12G SDI output pairing.
