BC360H Electrical to Optical Transceiver HD-SDI, SD-SDI, ASI pdf

The BC360H is an HD-SDI, SDI and ASI Transceiver. It handles two independent transport streams in opposite directions on two fibres.

Channel A is an auto-sensing HD-SDI optical transmitter and handles all formats of Serial Digital Video. It works with data rates of 10Mb/s up to 1.5Gb/s. The incoming signal is cable equalised and passed to the optical driver. The optical driver is factory configured for 1310nm singlemode, 1550nm singlemode or CWDM performance. There is also an active driven loop through.
Channel B is an HD-SDI optical receiver. The optical input is fed through the PIN/TIA to a limiting amplifier and the signal is autosensed and reclocked according to the relevant signal format. Independent cable drivers drive two BNC connectors on the output.

All Bluebell cards are designed to retain maximum integrity of the signal path offering excellent jitter free optical transport. Careful attention has been paid to reduce thermal runaway, eliminating the need for forced air cooling as fan failure and overheating is the most common cause of
failure in modern electronic systems.

The BC360H is available in singlemode, WDM and CWDM variants to suit any fibre application. The BC360H occupies a single slot in the BC100-3RU 19" rack-mounting frame allowing up to 15 channels of video to be transmitted and received in a single 3RU frame.
Signal and card monitoring is achieved through SNMP monitoring in the BM101 network card.
Alternatively GP-Output alarms can be triggered via the BM100 module.

For stand alone applications the BC360H can be housed in an individual rugged enclosure.
