Extended Information
Matrix Switch Corporation HD / SDI distribution amplifiers combine exceptional performance with both value and compact size. The MSC-HDDA4 and MSC-HDDA16 include 143MBPS, 270MBPS / 1.484GBPS Auto Rate Detection with "Power OK", "Lock" and "HD" indicators. The MSC-HDDA4G3 adds 2.97GBPS 1080P 60Hz to the Auto Rate Detection system. The compact size of these distribution amplifiers allows them to be located in spaces where rack space is limited.
The MSC-HDDA4, MSC-HDDA4G3 and the MSC-HDDA16 have all external connections on one edge, which makes for a neater installation. These Matrix Switch Corporation HD / SDI distribution amplifiers include front edge indicators for power on, HD detected and Re-clocker lock indication.
The 16 output MSC-HDDA16 HD-SDI Distribution Amplifier is a unique device. By combining a single HD-SDI input equalizer and multi-rate reclocker with a transparent fanout to 16 identical outputs, the MSC-HDDA16 can be used in place of five separate four out HD-SDI Distribution Amplifiers with better performance and lower cost. If separate Distribution Amplifiers are cascaded, each Distribution Amplifier adds unwanted jitter. And because each amplifier has equalization and reclocking, the outputs from different amplifiers will have different characteristics. MSC-HDDA16 HD-SDI Distribution Amplifier would be an excellent choice for distributing reference signals throughout a facility of any other HD SDI source that needs to be the same in many places. Two MSC-HDDA16 HD-SDI Distribution Amplifiers can be mounted in a 1RU space providing wide distribution of one or two HD-SDI signals to 31 or 32 destinations.
