AJA OpenGear 2x4 3G-SDI Reclocking Distribution Amplifier Card

The AJA OpenGear 2x4 3G-SDI Reclocking Distribution Amplifier Card delivers 3G-SDI signals on the input channels are automatically equalized and the outputs are automatically reclocked to four 3G-SDI outputs each or alternatively can function as a 1x 8-channel DA, allowing the same signal to be sent to eight destinations simultaneously. This dual input capability allows double the number of DAs in limited frame space. A 10x BNC rear connector module is included.

The OG-3GDA-2x4 offers Dual 1x4 or Single 1x8 modes. In either mode, the OG-3GDA-2x4 allows the same signal or signals to be sent to multiple destinations simultaneously. The incoming SD, HD or 3G signal(s) will be reclocked if it is one of the five SMPTE rates (270 Mbps, 1.483 Gbps, 1.485 Gbps, 2.966 Gbps, 2.970 Gbps). Otherwise, the signal(s) will bypass the reclocker and be present at the outputs. When a SD, HD, or 3G signal is detected, regardless of its compliance to SMPTE standards, the Signal Present 1 and/or Signal Present 2 LEDs will illuminate, depending on where the signal input is detected.

Designed for use in high density openGear 2RU frames including AJA’s OG-X-FR frame, new DashBoard software support on Windows, macOS, and Linux offers remote control and monitoring of the openGear architecture and provides convenient and industry-standard configuration, monitoring, and control options over a PC or local network.
