Figure 6.4-2: 907-HDV (HD-SDI) Media Converter Card
HD-SDI cards use a single CWDM optical channel wavelength (e.g. 1611 nm) for an uplink. If configured
for bidirectional ECL/PECL operation, two separate CWDM wavelengths are used.
Optical output power of the HD-SDI card is typically > -4 dBm at the optical access bushing shown in the
figure below. Optical sensitivity of the HD-SDI card is typically < -28dBm at the on-board SFP transceiver.
Overall flux budget of any optical link in the system is specified for at least 20dB, accounting for losses in
CWDMs and connectors.
A side view of HD-SDI card is shown below.
