Digital Forecast UHD M_OTR TX/RX 12G-SDI Optic Extender Set

Product Overview: 12G-SDI Fiber Optic Extender for Long-Distance Video

The DIGITAL FORECAST UHD M_OTR TX/RX is a micro-compact 12G-SDI optic extender pair designed to convert a 12G-SDI signal to optical for reliable, long-range transmission over LC single mode fiber. It’s built for professional video workflows where maintaining signal integrity over distance is critical, including UHD/4K SDI transport in studio, OB, and installed environments.

Using a single-core (single LC fiber strand) approach, this 12G-SDI over fiber extender set supports runs up to 10 km and includes the required 12G SFP module. With a 12G-SDI input plus loop out on the TX and dual 12G-SDI outputs on the RX, it integrates cleanly into routing, monitoring, and distribution setups while keeping the footprint small and power draw low.

Key Features

• Micro-Compact Size: Space-saving TX/RX pair for tight racks, carts, and field kits.
• 12G-SDI Input With Loop Out: 1x 12G-SDI input plus loop out for local feed-through on the transmitter.
• Dual 12G-SDI Outputs: 2x 12G-SDI outputs on the receiver for flexible distribution.
• LC Single Mode Fiber: Designed for long-distance optical transmission using LC single mode connectivity.
• Single Core Transmission: Uses a single LC fiber strand to simplify fiber runs.
• 12G SFP Module Included: Includes the 12G SFP module required for optical operation.
• Up To 10 km Reach: Supports long-range 12G-SDI optical transmission up to 10 km.
