12G-SDI to Fiber Converter with Loop-Out Gigabit Ethernet RS485
Overview
The LNK-12GSDI-1V2R1GE is a compact 12G-SDI fiber converter designed for 4K UHD
transmission over long distances. It supports uncompressed broadcast-grade video up to 12Gbps,
with embedded 8-channel audio and local 12G-SDI loop output.
Alongside video, it integrates Gigabit
Ethernet and 2-channel RS485 backward data, ensuring versatile connectivity for broadcast, production,
and security environments. With support for up to 80km optical transmission and compatibility with
SMPTE and DVB-ASI standards, this converter delivers reliable performance for next-generation
UHD
workflows.
