Mini-type 3G-SDI to Fiber Converter with Tally & Reverse RS485
Mini 3G-SDI Fiber Converter with Tally Signals Overview
The LNK-M3G-1V Series represents a compact yet high-performance fiber conversion
system specifically engineered for professional broadcast and video
production environments. This mini-type converter enables seamless
transmission of 1-channel 3G/HD-SDI video signals with embedded audio, tally data, and bidirectional RS485
communication over single-mode or multimode fiber optic cables.
As a complete E-link fiber optic transmission solution, the system
comprises matched transmitter and receiver units that work in
tandem to deliver uncompromised 1080p video quality across extended
distances. The integrated 3G/HD-SDI loop-through output provides
local monitoring capability without signal degradation, while the
robust fiber optic infrastructure ensures immunity to
electromagnetic interference and ground loop problems commonly
encountered in traditional copper-based video systems.
Ideal for broadcast studios, live event production, and
surveillance applications, this converter maintains signal
integrity throughout the transmission chain. The compact form
factor allows for flexible deployment in space-constrained racks or
mobile production setups, providing broadcast engineers with a
reliable and scalable solution for high-definition video transport
over fiber optic networks.

shutdown, allowing for maintenance and configuration changes during
live production without interrupting broadcast operations. - Broadcast-Grade Signal Processing
Handles all pathological test patterns with full digital
non-compression technology, ensuring broadcast-level transmission
quality that meets professional industry standards. - Comprehensive Status Monitoring
Integrated LED status indicators provide real-time monitoring of
power, signal lock, fiber link integrity, and data transmission
status for quick troubleshooting and system management. - Auto-Adjusting Optical Interface
Features superior optical dynamic range with automatic adjustment
capability, eliminating the need for manual optical power
calibration across varying transmission distances. - Wavelength Division Multiplexing Support
Optional CWDM wavelength configurations between 1470~1610nm,
enabling multiple signal transmission over a single fiber strand
for efficient fiber infrastructure utilization. - Industrial Temperature Range Operation
Built to operate across an ultra-broad temperature range from -20℃
to +70℃, ensuring reliable performance in challenging environmental
conditions from outdoor broadcasting to industrial monitoring
applications.
