  • Page 13 Chapter 3 Use Your Product MSP 405 is a device that functions as both a transmitter and receiver. Designed for flexibility, it supports signal transmission cross various interfaces: SDI to HDMI + optical fiber, HDMI to SDI + optical fiber, and optical fiber to SDI + HDMI when paired with another MSP 405 unit.
  • Page 14 Ensure that all devices are in good condition with no damage or abnormalities. 2. Check the Power Adapter Verify that the power adapter or battery meets the required voltage of 12V , power of 18W and current of no less than 1.5A. 3.
  • Page 15 to enter the mode selection interface. Set the MSP 405 to SDI input to HDMI/Fiber output. 3. Check SDI Input Signal Check the SDI input signal via the MSP 405’s LCD screen. If the signal is not displayed, first check if the MSP 405 is receiving adequate power, then verify the output of the SDI camera, and try using a shorter cable to connect the MSP 405 and SDI camera if necessary.
  • Page 16 1. Connect HDMI and SDI Cables Use an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI output port of the SDI signal (e.g., a computer) to the HDMI input port of the MSP 405 device 1. Use an SDI cable to connect the SDI output port of the MSP 405 to the SDI input port of the SDI monitor.
  • Page 17 monitoring of the SDI input from the camera. 2. Select a Mode to enter the mode selection interface. Set MSP 405 Device 1 to HDMI Input to Fiber and SDI Output mode. 3. Set MSP 405 Device 2 to Fiber Input to HDMI Output mode. 4.
  • Page 18 Output Input 6. Connect the HDMI output port of the MSP 405 Device 2, which receives fiber signal, to your terminal display so as to enable conversion between fiber and HDMI signals. 3.4 Application Example 4 1. Connect HDMI and SDI Cables Use an SDI cable to connect the SDI output port of a device (e.g., a camera) to the SDI input port of MSP 405 Device 1.
  • Page 19 Fiber and HDMI Output mode. 3. Set MSP 405 Device 2 to Fiber Input to HDMI and SDI Output mode. 4. Prepare two fiber optic cables and the corresponding SFP pluggable transceivers. First, insert the pluggable transceivers into the fiber optic interface slots of two MSP 405 devices respectively.
  • Page 20 3.4 Test Modes The MSP 405 can be served as an all-in-one field testing "Swiss Army knife" to verify input/output interface functionality during system deployment, significantly improving setup and testing efficiency. Application Scenario 1: Output Signal Verification The MSP 405 provides multiple built-in test templates to rapidly validate display integrity, synchronization accuracy, and signal stability.
  • Page 21 3. Select a test template (color bars, grid, etc.). Enable ”TP Motion” for dynamic pattern display. 4. Templates will show on connected displays while being output via SDI/HDMI/fiber simultaneously. Application Scenario 2: Input Interface Testing The MSP 405 can function as a temporary display substitute to test output interfaces of other devices.
  • Page 22 Application Scenario 3: Source Device Validation Test signal sources (e.g., cameras, media servers) by routing their outputs to the MSP 405. Connect SDI output from broadcast cameras. Feed HDMI signals from PCs/media servers. Real-time input monitoring confirms signal health. 3.5 Loop Modes The MSP 405 supports zero-latency loop-through conversion, enabling real-time signal conversion between SDI, HDMI, and fiber while preserving the original resolution.
  • Page 23 Choose the desired output format (e.g., SDI→HDMI+fiber). Verify real-time output using the connected reference monitor or the built-in test patterns. 3.6 Audio MSP 405 requires enabling Line In to ingest external signals without distortion, while Line Out must be activated to output processed video; disabling either will interrupt the corresponding signal chain, though the core conversion function remains operational.
