The Digital Forecast OLINK 8RX 12G is a remarkable rack-mountable fiber receiver. It can turn 8 channels of SDI signals into optical signals, enabling smooth and reliable long - distance data transfer. This unidirectional system handles 8 SDI channels at once, perfect for high - performance data transfer needs. Its compact design saves space while transmitting large amounts of 12G SDI signals efficiently. Engineered for flexibility and durability, it supports various SDI formats like SD, HD, 3G, 6G, and 12G, suitable for different broadcast and production settings. With dual - core technology, it can transmit signals up to 10 kilometers, ensuring stable connectivity. The use of dual single - mode cables with ST type optical connectors boosts signal integrity and cuts down on interference. Key features include support for standard SDI formats, a unidirectional 8RX model, 10 - kilometer signal transmission, dual single - mode cable support, and a +12V dual power supply for reliability. Technical specs cover a wide operating environment, a power level from +7V to +16V DC, power consumption of up to 15 Watts, an operating temperature of 0°C to 55°C, humidity tolerance of 0% to 95% RH non - condensing, a data rate of 12G, and a signal level of 800mVp - p ± 80mV.
Using the Digital Forecast OLINK 8RX 12G fiber receiver is straightforward. First, connect your 8 SDI signals to the appropriate inputs on the receiver. Then, use the dual single - mode cables with ST type optical connectors to link it to the destination for signal transmission. Make sure to power it up with a +7V to +16V DC power supply. When using, keep in mind that the operating temperature should be between 0°C and 55°C, and the humidity should be within 0% to 95% RH non - condensing. Avoid exposing it to extreme environmental conditions. For maintenance, regularly check the connections to ensure they are secure and clean the optical connectors gently if needed. This will help keep the receiver working well and ensure reliable signal transmission over long distances.
