SdI bOxES
The SDI boxes are available in four
way (VI5699) and eight way (VI5698)
versions, both supporting HD (high
definition) and SD (standard definition)
video. Both units may be fitted with a
secondary IEC inlet for redundant external
AC power.
The four way version can be fitted with
up to eight optional Dolby E decoder
modules. An extra rear connector is
provided with this option for accessing
Dolby E metadata.
As with the analog and AES-3 boxes,
these SDI interfaces connect to the
network via an Ethernet port on the rear
of the unit. Each unit has two identical
ports to provide network redundancy. All
versions are supplied with two RJ45 ports
for copper connections (1000BASE-T for
distances up to 90 m = 290 feet). Plug-in
GBIC modules allow connections with
1000BASE-SX (for distances up to 550
m) and 1000BASE-LX (for distances up
to 10 km) are available.
