INTRODUCTION
The AV-GM09L3-S1 8x4 3G/HD/SD-SDI Switch receives, equalizes, and reclocks* up to 8 SDI
inputs, perfectly switches the desired input to SDI equipped monitors or receivers. The switch
supports both HD/SD-SDI bit rates, and the re-transmitted quality is guaranteed. Through RS-232,
IR remote, or front panel push button, the control of the SDI switch becomes versatile and easier.
AV-GM09L3-S1 offers the most convenient and cost effective means for swift switch and duplication
of high quality SDI in the market.
FEATURES
●3G / HD / SD-SDI switch
●Up to 8 input & 4 re-timing SDI outputs
●Dual color indication LED of 3G / HD / SD of the output SDI
●Automatic detection of the SDI Input
●Synchronizes input/output (switch after vertical sync)
●Provides the equalized and reclocked* transmission path up to 300m (1000ft) at SD-SDI , 150m
(500ft) at HD-SDI or 100m (500ft) at 3G HD-SDI
●Multiple control by RS-232, IR remote, and push button
PACKAGE CONTENTS
●1 x AV-GM09L3-S1
●1 x Rack-mounting ear set
●1 x DC 5V 4A in-line with C7 power cord
●1 x User Manual
●1 x Installation software CD
* A Reclocking feature first equalizes, then extracts a clock from the signal and cleans up the
eye pattern. It is useful to avoid signal loss due to cable length
