MARKETPLACE /// TEST & MEASURE IN TRANSITION


Hamlet is adding to its range with the new DigiTek DT900. Capable of simultaneously monitoring two to four signals in a single 1U device with pro- speakers included, presenting the results through an integral multi-viewer onto any DVI or HDMI display. The multi-format capabilities include 3G, HD and SD SDI, with test signal generation, EYE pattern, SDI


combined with analogue input modules plus digital and analogue audio inputs options ensuring backward compatibility, making it ideal for installations which are undergoing transition. www.hamlet.co.uk


FIBRE TRANSMISSION


features an auto-cable equalization circuit and cable driver circuit available at receiver.


A signal jitter


Chinese company Doteck has available the Doteck 3G series transmitter, which provides one 3G/HD/SD-SDI input, and one loop-through for local monitoring. The receiver outputs 2-way parallel 3G/HD/SD-SDI digital video. It


elimination circuit is available both at the transmitter and at the receiver to ensure high quality signal transmission over long distance fibre cable. Auto signal detection is also standard. Also available is the Doteck HD8 series transmitter , which provides eight HD-SDI input, and 8 loop-throughs for local monitoring. The receiver outputs 16-way parallel HD-SDI digital video. www.doteck.com


RACK OR PORTABLE FIBRE


The new Studio Technologies Model 412 Fiber Transport System can transport multiple serial digital video, MADI digital audio, as well as gigabit Ethernet signals over single-mode optical fibres. The portable or


rack-mounted Model 412 uses optical multiplexing to transport SDI video or MADI audio signals—at rates of up to 2.97 Gbps—over two single-mode optical fibres. The system is available in three versions. www.studio-tech.com


BIGGER BULLDOGS, DINGO


Multidyne is refining and updating its fibre optic based video and audio transport solutions by introducing The Dingo, a new card set that transports a wide range of camera signals—such as 3G HD-SDI, composite video, analogue or digital audio with cross conversion, intercom, serial data, and Gigabit Ethernet—over a single fibre-optic cable. Also new this year are two larger sized versions of The BullDog compact, field fibre transport system. Using The BullDog, camera operators can extend the transmission distance of multiple camera signals over a single fibre cable. The BullDog efficiently transports up to 8 HD-SDI signals in any direction. www.multidyne.com


////////////////20 TV Technology Asia-Pacific I April 2014


The handheld TAG from Phabrix is a low cost (about £2000) analyser/monitor that offers a range of interfaces from composite up to SD-SDI, HD-SDI, 3G-SDI and optical support via a built-in SFP cage. On the audio side the TAG provides a D connector providing both balanced analogue audio and AES I/O. AES waveform display allows visual check for levels and reference lock. PHABRIX has worked closely with Dolby to provide support for Dolby E, Dolby D and Dolby D plus for the TAG. TAG also features a TCP/IP remote control connection, allowing the instrument to be controlled via any standard web browser. ww.phabrix.com


RUGGED CONNECTORS


A new high density version of the Fischer UltiMate Series 07 connector is a small, miniaturized connector containing ten contacts within plug and receptacle diameters starting at 12mm only. With this additional configuration, the Fischer UltiMate Series of rugged connectors is now available in five sizes (07, 08, 11, 13 and 18) and in configurations from 2 to 42 pins. www.fischerconnectors.com


MONITORING PROBE


Part of Nevion’s nSure line of intelligent monitoring and switching solutions, the TNS4200 Media Monitoring Probe is a toolbox that provides continuous monitoring of up to several hundred transport streams, enabling fast fault detection and diagnostics for higher uptimes. With numerous ASI and IP inputs within its compact 1RU frame, the TNS4200 is highly flexible and can be configured to reflect customised monitoring rules. The new probe is designed for video-centric network monitoring. www.nevion.com


QUICKER FIBRE RIG/DERIG; PORTABLE FIBRE TEST


Argosy now offers a range of fibre management solutions, including Neutrik’s opticalCON advanced tactical fibre assemblies. These include the opticalCON Duo, opticalCON Quad and the recently debuted opticalCON MTP connection systems. The MTP offers a 12-channel fibre optic connection system for point-to- point multichannel routing with a push/pull connector that helps to reduce rigging and de-rigging times in the field. Its innovative spherical shutter is easy to clean and guarantees low maintenance. As well as being easily deployable, the MTP connection system offers a reliable, end-to-end solution with rugged outer-jackets for harsh environments. Also now available from Argosy is the Cygnus Pro range of portable fibre and hybrid cable testing systems from PERCON. The Cygnus Pro HD-fibre device allows engineers to accurately test signal integrity on opticalCON tactical fibre assemblies and SMPTE camera systems. www.argosycable.com
