500VMDA

SDI Monitoring Reclocking Distribution Amplifier

VistaLINK® enabled

The Evertz 500VMDA Reclocking Distribution Amplifier provides inexpensive distribution and monitoring of your SMPTE 259M (270Mb/s) serial digital video signal.

The DA features an auto-equalized input with nine outputs that can be selected as either SDI or composite analog. The 500VMDA in conjuction with the 510DCDA-HD gives an upgrade path to monitoring future HD-SDI signals without having to rewire your installation.

The 500VMDA is housed in the 3RU 500FR exponent frame that will hold up to 16 modules.

Features
  • Fully hot-swappable from front of frame with no BNC disconnect required
  • Tally output on Frame Status bus upon loss of input signal
  • VistaLINK® capable for remote monitoring via SNMP (using VistaLINK® PRO) when installed in 500FR frame with 500FC VistaLINK® Frame Controller
  • Selectable NTSC pedestal on/off
  • Passes embedded audio to SD-SDI output
  • Card Edge LED's
  • Reclocker Locked
  • Max. Equalization Warning
  • Module Health Status
  • Video present, cable length warning, and video standard LEDs
    • Input
    • Supports SMPTE 259M-C (270Mb/s) video with embedded audio
    • Outputs
    • 9 outputs selectable as SD-SDI or composite analog (NTSC/PAL)
    • Independent isolated output drivers to ensure no cross channel leading effects (i.e. no need to terminate unused outputs)
    • Selectable NTSC pedestal on/off
    • Passes embedded audio to SD-SDI output
