Based on the XIO platform, the Gra-Vue XIO 9000VSD-HD 1 x 7 HD/SD-SDI/ASI Signal Distribution Amplifier distributes 1 HD/SD-SDI signal to 7 outputs with re-clocking. It is used as a modular component in the XIO 1U and 3U Modular Platform Chassis (sold separately). This amplifier supports HD/SD-SDI input signals with embedded audio and automatic input detection of 525i 60, 625i 50, 720p, 1080i, 1080p, and 1080psf formats. It also supports processing and distribution of ASI signals.

The XIO 9000VSD-HD Distribution Amplifier provides automatic signal equalization and re-clocking for long cable applications. This improves the signal quality and reduces signal loss caused due to long distance transmission of the input source. The LED lights on the module indicate the status of input signals and power supply, to let you know the signal status immediately. The distribution amplifier also supports SNMP and can be real-time managed and monitored via the XIO NET Network Management Module (sold separately) via Ethernet.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How does this SDI splitter operate without a power supply? It seems like all the other units like it require one.

A: According to Apantac, this passive splitter has minimal internal wiring, and draws power through the SDI connection.

Q: 2. Will this pass control data (focus, zoom, talkback) to my Blackmagic studio cameras?

A: Yes, the AVMATRIX 1x4 3G-SDI Distribution Amplifier will pass control data to your Blackmagic Design Studio Camera.

Q: 3. What is the delay in the video signal when switching from signal 1 to signal 2?

A: The Freakshow HD 2x4 12G-SDI Switchable Reclocking Distribution Amplifier has a couple of milliseconds of delay. There will be a slight glitch as you switch.

Q: 4. Is there a way to output both sources at the same time Creating 2 inputs with 3 outputs each

A: We’re afraid not. It has an A/B switch to select with SDI input you use for the outputs of the DA. You cannot split it out in that way.

Q: 5. Is there a mounting bracket for it

A: Please contact Laimonas at info@lsdigi.com They custom make a variety of mounting brackets and would be more than happy to create one for your needs. https://www.lsdigi.com/collections/all

Q: 6. Will this convert S-Video?

A: Yes, this product can be used with to convert Component, Composite or S-Video.

Q: 7. Is it rechargeable or battery operated?

A: The Gefen GefenToolBox HD Pattern Signal Generator requires power from the wall and is not a portable unit with batteries.

Q: 8. Does this unit include the power supply?

A: Yes, this includes the AJA DWP-U-R1 Worldwide Power Supply for AJA Mini-Converters B&H # AJDWPUR1.

Q: 9. Does anyone know if this reclocks the signal?

A: We're afraid not. This is passive, it will not re-clock the signal. For a re-clocked signal you would need to look at the Apantac 3G-SDI 1x4 Re-Clocking Distribution Amplifier, B&H # APDA4HD, instead. https://bhpho.to/2EkR1Ue

Q: 10. Would this cable allow me to send and record 4k raw from a Canon c300 mark II to an Atomos Shogun?

A: Yes. 3G-SDI is 10-bit 4:2:2 4K at up to 30p 12G-sdi is good for 4Kp60 resolution and higher bit rate, so it is also compatible with previous standards like HD/3G-SDI.
