Lightware SW4-OPT-TX240RAK Multimode Single Fiber Extender with Bi-...
SW4-OPT-TX240RAK extends HDMI 1.4, DVI 1.0, HDCP and bi-directional RS-232* signals over one multimode fiber and transmit video signal with embedded audio to a distance of up to 2500 meters.
The extender was designed to handle HDMI1.4 and DP1.1 digital video signals and analog stereo audio from local inputs or HDMI embedded audio up to eight channel PCM or HBR audio. Analog audio is converted into digital format. The device has a local HDMI video output for monitoring. The video and the embedded audio of the local output is the same as the one transmitted via the OPT link. SW4-OPT-TX240RAK handles HDCP encryption.
Using the factory, custom or transparent EDID emulation the user can fix and lock EDID data on each input connector. Advanced EDID Management forces the required resolution from any video source and fixes the output format conforming to the system requirements. The unit offers bi-directional and transparent RS232.
The device can be mounted on a rack shelf or used standalone. SW4-OPT-TX240RAK is compatible with both OPT series extenders and matrix switchers.
The device features Pixel Accurate Reclocking, a Lightware technology to eliminate jitter and skew generated by low quality sources and multiple daisy-chained devices.
Single fiber technology makes these units fully HDMI and HDCP compliant without need of a second fiber cable or copper connections. The bi-directional communication required for HDCP handshaking is performed via the same fiber core that transmits the video signal.
Galvanic isolation between source and display helps avoiding ground loops and hum effects. No delay occurs in the signal during optical conversion, the video image is transported without frame latency. This feature is crucial in 3D applications and systems where audio is processed separately.
All devices among the Lightware fiber optical product portfolio are designed to assure cross-compatibility. In a standalone application, SW4-OPT-TX240RAK and HDMI-OPT-RX200R can work together flawlessly. To simplify installation and reduce costs, The Lightware hybrid modular matrix concept allows connecting this fiber extender directly to an MX or a 25G Hybrid matrix router using MX-HDMI-OPT series input or output optical boards.
