Serial Digital The Kramer line of Digital (SDI) related products meets the requirements of the highest professional and industrial applications.
The SDI family includes 4 categories: ! SDI and AES/EBU Distribution Amplifiers.
These machines distribute SDI (Serial Digital) video signals or AES/EBU digital audio signal from one source or more to several acceptors. They offer automatic recognition of all digital standards, automatic cable equalization, and reclocking. As a result, the operating distance of these DAs is several hundred meters, making them suitable for the most demanding applications.
! SDI Serializers and De-Serializers.
The machines in this category convert between Serial and Parallel Digital video and also function as distribution amplifiers. Conversion between standards is necessary for compatibility in studios with old and new hardware.
! SDI to Analog converters. The machines in this category convert between Serial Digital and Analog Composite, Y/C and Component signals. Conversion is necessary for compatibility in studios, which have hardware of different standards.
! SDI Switchers and Matrices.
Machines in this category switch several SDI sources to one or more acceptors. The switching is done during the Vertical Interval, conforming to broadcast standards. Besides being switchers, they function as SDI DAs as well and are RS-232/ -485 controlled.
Applications: # # # #
Signal switching, distributing and equalization in SDI production and Broadcast studios. On-Air SDI Vertical Interval switching. Serial-Parallel video Standards conversion. Digital to Analog conversion in studios using both standards.
