Model MSC-FC8BW-8
8 Channel 3G-SDI BNC to CWDM Fiber Converter (8 CWDM modules included)
Matrix Switch Corporation SDI CWDM fiber optic converters provide compact, flexible, and low cost solutions for transmitting multiple coax SDI signals over a single fiber. Utilizing different wavelengths these products can transmit up to 16 channels of 3G-SDI up to 20km.
The MSC-FC8BW-8 converter provides 8 BNC inputs and one 8 channel CWDM fiber optic output, for transmitting 8 SDI signals over a single fiber. This product includes 8 MSC-SFPTX-W factory installed CWDM transmitter modules.
Also see the MSC-XF88BWS-8 for a more advanced product offering BNC SDI to CWDM fiber optic conversion with a combined 8x8 router.
