AJA OG-FiDO-T openGear 1-Channel 3G-SDI to Single Mode LC Fiber Transmitter

AJA OG-FiDO-T is an openGear-compatible 3G-SDI to single-mode fiber transmitter designed to move baseband SDI cleanly over long distances. It extends 3G-SDI signals up to 10 km (32,808 ft) over standard single-mode fiber while maintaining signal stability through automatic reclocking.

The SDI input is reclocked for improved jitter tolerance, and a reclocked SDI loop-through output is provided, allowing local monitoring or downstream distribution before the signal is sent to fiber.

Highlights

• 3G-SDI to single-mode fiber conversion with SDI loop-through
• Format-agnostic operation from 150 Mbps to 3 Gbps
• Automatic detection and reclocking at common SDI rates
• HDR and SDI metadata pass-through supported
• Low-power, hot-swappable openGear card

Quick Specs & Uses

• Input: 1x 3G-SDI BNC with reclocked loop-through
• Outputs: 1x 3G-SDI BNC and 1x single-mode LC fiber
• Reclocked rates: 270 Mbps to 2.970 Gbps (Auto Select)
• Optics: 1310 nm single-mode, −5 to 0 dBm optical output
• Power: openGear frame powered, 2.5 W max

Why It Helps

OG-FiDO-T solves the practical problem of moving SDI farther than copper allows. By converting SDI to fiber at the source and reclocking the signal first, it improves stability over long runs and reduces susceptibility to interference in production and facility environments.

Frame & System Fit

• Compatible frames: OG-X-FR, OG-3-FR, DFR-8321
• Form factor: openGear front card with rear I/O
• Slots required: two per card
• Weight: 0.5 lb (0.3 kg)
• Operating range: 0–40 C, 10–90% RH, <3,000 m altitude
