Product Information

The VOPEX-3GSDI-4 is a video splitter that supports HDTV resolutions up to 1080p @60Hz, and can auto-detect 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, or SD-SDI format. It supports SMPTE 259M, SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 296M, SMPTE 424M, SMPTE 425M Level A, and ITU-R BT.656/BT.601 video interfaces used for broadcast-grade video, and can pass embedded audio, ancillary ID and metadata information, and SD/HD/3G-SDI digital video signals. It also supports 48kHz audio.

This splitter is suitable for use in applications where signals need to be split from a camera or other device equipped with 3G/HD/SD-SDI outputs to four SDI-compliant displays or video processors.

The materials supplied with the VOPEX-3GSDI-4 include the splitter itself, a 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz ; 5VDC 3A (PS4297) AC Adapter, a country-specific line cord, and a URL Slip with a path to the manual. Contact an NTI product consultant for information on 9VDC or 12VDC power supply options.

Product Usage Instructions

  1. Connect the SD/HD/3G-SDI video source to SDI INPUT using 75 Ohm RG6 BNC cable.
  2. Connect up to four SD/HD/3G-SDI displays to the SDI x OUTPUT ports (where x is 1-4) using 75 Ohm RG6 BNC cables.
  3. Connect the power supply and power up the VOPEX, video source and displays (in any order).

Introduction

The VOPEX® 4-Port 3G-SDI Splitter simultaneously displays the same image from one SD/HD/3G-SDI video source onto four SD/HD/3G-SDI monitors.
Features

  • Simultaneously broadcasts 3G-SDI/HD-SDI/SD-SDI signal from one source to four displays using 75 Ohm RG6 BNC cables.
    • Automatic input equalization – compensates for attenuation on the incoming signal and automatically equalizes cables for the following distances:
  • 3G-SDI 1920×1080@60Hz to 328 feet (100 meters).
  • HD-SDI 1280×720@60Hz to 656 feet (200 meters).
  • SD-SDI 525i@60Hz and 625i@50Hz to 984 feet (300 meters).
    • Automatic output reclocking – reshapes and restores timing of digital video signals at output, eliminating high frequency jitter.
  • upports HDTV resolutions to 1080p @60Hz.
  • Auto-detects 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, or SD-SDI format.
    • Supports SMPTE 259M, SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 296M, SMPTE 424M, SMPTE 425M Level A, and ITU-R BT.656/BT.601 video interfaces used for broadcast-grade video.
  • Passes embedded audio, ancillary ID and metadata information, and SD/HD/3G-SDI digital video signals
    • Supports 48kHz audio.
  • Plug-and-play functionality – no software needed.
  • Ideal for CCTV surveillance systems, TV broadcast studios, digital cinema, medical imaging facilities, or any AV application where signals need to be split from a camera or other device equipped with 3G/HD/SD-SDI outputs to four SDI-
  • compliant displays or video processors.
