BC362IBT

BC362IBT Dual Electrical to Optical Transmitter 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI,ASI

This series of cards allows customers to integrate their connector of choice into either existing or new systems.

The BC362IBT is a transmitter card for the conversion of two independent 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI and ASI signals into fibre optical cable. Each incoming signal is auto-sensed and then equalised prior to conversion and transmission down a separate single optical fibre. All Bluebell cards are designed to retain maximum integrity of the signal path offering excellent jitter free optical transport. Each channel can operate in non-reclocking mode and handles data rates from 50 Mb/s to 3 Gb/s.

The BC362IBT is available in multimode, singlemode, WDM and CWDM variants to suit any fibre application.

The BC362IBT occupies a single slot in the BC100-3RU 19" rack-mounting frame which can hold up to 15 single slot cards. This dual functionality allows up to 30 channels of video to be transmitted or received from 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 BC362IBT can be housed in an individual rugged enclosure.
