HD-SDI

HD-SDI is a SMPTE protocol is used in digital TV Broadcasting. The protocol sends high speed serial signals one way over a coax cable, from camera to storage or editing point.

Standard resolution and data rates are as follows:

HD-CCTV

Deriving from the HD-SDI standard, a new surveillance camera connection is being proposed. It uses coax cabling and achieves typically 1080p resolution at 1.5Gbit/s. In version 1.0 of the HD-CCTV spec, only data from the camera is defined. Control of the camera is left open.

Cable lengths of 100m are currently proposed.

The EQCO30R5 equalizer was developed for HD-SDI standards and also offers outstanding performance in HD-CCTV systems. It operates at up to 3.0Gbit/s allowing for extra high data resolution – and slow motion video. At 1.485Gbit/s, the EQCO30R5 allows RG6 type cables to reach over 200m.
