Overview

FiDO-R-12G offers unmatched flexibility and cost efficiency for 12G/6G/3G/HD/SD-SDI to Fiber conversion, allowing for cable runs up to 10 km (32,808 ft) over standard single-mode fiber optic cable. 

FiDO converters use a compact, low-profile enclosure that works well in tight spaces around and behind equipment racks, trucks and on camera.

Features:

• 1-Channel Single-Mode LC Fiber to 12G-SDI Receiver 
• Simplex connection (LC connector)
• 12G-SDI output, which also supports 6G/3G/HD/SD-SDI
• Second SDI output (DA: same signal)
• Dual, matching SDI outputs
• Supports pass-through of SDI metadata, including HDR
• Uses 5-20VDC power (Universal power supply included)
• Five year warranty

HDR Pass-Through Support

HDR or High Dynamic Range, provides the ability to display a wider and richer range of colors, much brighter whites, and much deeper, darker blacks than SDR or Standard Dynamic Range signals allow. This gives your imagery a more ‘dynamic’ look and allows for natural true to life colors to be communicated to your audience.

Universal Power Supply

Customers can purchase a spare universal power supply for use with any of their Mini-Converters. This universal power supply includes international plug connections for use around the world.

Compact and Portable

AJA Mini-Converters are small enough to fit behind a monitor, in the back of a rack, or directly on a camera rig. A locking power connector can't accidentally pull loose and an optional P-TAP power cable allows for battery power in remote locations.
