Optional MFR-8SDIGB/8SDOGB cards support Gearbox features, in which video signal conversions
between 12G-SDI and Quad Link 3G-SDI, and between 2SI and SQD are available.
◆ Gearbox features
Conversion between 12G-SDI and Quad Link 3G-SDI (including asynchronous input)
Conversion between 2SI and SQD
Clean switch after conversion by AVDL (Automatic Variable Delay Line)
Also allows Gearbox I/O delay selection (excluding 2SI / SQD conversions)
REF IN or SDI Input synchronization
H/V ANC data pass-through
5-1. MFR-8SDIGB / 8SDOGB Cards
MFR-8SDIGB / 8SDOGB cards have two built-in Gearboxes that can respectively perform signal
conversions. The gearboxes can output signals without conversion and test patterns.
Only 1D and 2D connectors can support 12G-SDI signals. If a 12G-SDI signal is input to a Gearbox,
A, B and C connectors are disabled.
