DEA-8205
Dual Serial MD-SDI Equalizing Amplifier
Two independent channels of SDI distribution for Standard and High-Definition SDI signals.

The DEA-8205 is a two channel Multi-Definition SDI distribution amplifier, capable of equalizing all common serial digital signals. With two independent signal channels, the DEA-8205 provides cost-effective distribution at double the density compared to single channel cards. Support for all data rates between 143Mb/s and 1.485Gb/s makes the DEA-8205 a great choice for high-density SDI distribution.

Each channel of the DEA-8205 equalizes the incoming SDI signal, compensating for up to 300m of cable at 270Mb/s and up to 100m of cable at 1.485Gb/s. Four SDI outputs are provided for each channel.

Special attention has been taken to ensure the SDI outputs faithfully reproduce the incoming signals, with excellent jitter and return loss specifications.

LED indicators at the front of the module identify the presence of incoming video, simplifying system troubleshooting.

The DEA-8205 is housed in our DFR-8310 series frames.
