Extend your SDI signals over single-mode or multi-mode fiber optics with this Link Bridge Mini-3GHD-TR Fiber Optic 3G-SDI Transmitter. When combined with a 3G-SDI fiber receiver, SDI signals can be extended for miles (using single-mode cables) without any information degradation. The casing of the unit has a low profile to fit in tight equipment setups. Using a separate rackmount chassis, up to 12 transmitters can be organized in a patch bay. The panel connectors on the transmitter are a BNC SDI input, an ST-type fiber output for video I/O, and an integrated 5-pin XLR dongle for connecting to the included power supply. Like the BNC connector, the ST fiber connector offers a locking solution that will not come undone from cable strain. When not in use, the integrated metal cap covers the sensitive optical connection.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can I use this as a virtual input for a web video conference system?

A: Configured over a Web-based user interface, Spark Plus 4K allows you to connect your camera, webcam, or computer to stream live over the Web or other broadcast platforms.

Q: 2. Where should the transmitter be powered from, separate battery, camera?

A: The Amimon Transmitter for CONNEX Mini HD Video Link for UAVs will require a 4 pin connector for use with a 8-26V 3S-6S battery.

Q: 3. Can it be used as program out from here ATEM Mini Pro ethernet and will it have latency via SDI and HDMI out?

A: The ATEM Mini Pro can stream via Ethernet to the ATEM Streaming Bridge. If the bridge is on a local network, the latency would be noticeable but under a second.

Q: 4. Will this allow me to connect remotely to the atem mini software and control live switching from another atem mini or atem mini software in another location?

A: No, this doesn't connect you to the ATEM Software, it just give you the ATEM Mini Pro's live program feed.

Q: 5. Will this work with the Studio Pro HD?

A: No, that will not work.

Q: 6. Is this compatible with Blackmagic Design ATEM Camera Converter?

A: Yes, it is compatible with the ATEM Camera Converter. You will still need to get the Optical Module Adapter separately.

Q: 7. Are you able to stream to Facebook/YouTube and the streaming bridge at the same time?

A: Not with the direct Ethernet. You can stream to services as a webcam connected to a computer.

Q: 8. I haven't seen anything addressed on synchronizing delays. In one use case in the announcement "as a higher quality conference call." If there is a 1-2 second delay from an AMPro to my AMPro... if I were talking to the source in real time via.. Teamspeak or Unity, how would I delay my own feed to sync up with the incoming RTMP signal?

A: Right.. The delay is to be expected as we deal with it everyday for my job with RTMP, SRT, Zixi... etc. But the issue is, if you're bringing in another streamer's feed live and you wish to interact with the person/people on camera either side is waiting for the response. I was referring to Teamspeak or Unity as being the realtime proxy for you to have a fluid conversation, before the high-quality video arrives. It feels like there needs to be another device from BMD that would delay the local video to line up with the remote feed coming in on the bridge. The device would interface with the AtemMP and possibly even delay the switching (as some other cloud-based systems do [these send a webRTC proxy though]), so the high-quality feeds would be switched in time to each other (the AMPIso already records an XML of cut times, so the data is there already). Use case: Live production done between two influencers 3,000 miles away, high end cameras on either end both with AtemMPs, one sending their video/playback/gfx and streaming to the Bridge on the receiving-side. They're conversing, but the Bridge-Delay box is syncing up the two sides of the feed. It knows one side is 2 seconds delayed, so it delays the local input by 2 seconds, but cuts (tc/utc data) made on the final-side AtemMP are also delayed before final encode. I think I digress anyway, as I may have misunderstood the use of this bridge. The use case I'm thinking of needs a proxy however it's done. So a webRTC video call would need to be done in conjunction with this setup.

Q: 9. Hello, I tried several brands/converters described as able to support 3G sources ad 1080p50 and 60 but still not found it one really able to do it under 100 USD, is this able to do it for real? Thanks!

A: Yes this is able to support 3G sources at 1080 50/60p. however if you have tried multiple products and they have all failed to achieve the task you may need to reexamine or double check the other components in your set up. Cabling for example is often overlooked as a source of a problem. In many instances the cabling looks fine from the outside but has a pinch or short on the inside that prevents the signal from reaching its destination. This product should work for your needs therefore if you continue to have problems take some time to do additional troubleshooting and give us a call if you need additional tips or assistance.

Q: 10. Does the Digital Forcast Bridge M_SH Mini SDI to HDMI Converter support SMPTE Level A & Level B?
