Osprey OG-3G-2D Dual Channel 3G SDI Decoder OpenGear Card

The Osprey OG 3G 2D Dual Channel 3G SDI Decoder OpenGear Card provides powerful real time decoding for broadcast, production, and IP contribution environments. Designed for openGear frames, it supports dual channel 3G SDI outputs with up to 1080p60 decoding, making it ideal for professional monitoring, routing, and signal distribution workflows. With integrated genlock, dual Ethernet connectivity, and full SDI embedded audio support, the OG 3G 2D is built for reliable deployment in demanding infrastructures.

This decoder supports H.264 and H.265 streams and accepts UDP, RTP, SRT, and Zixi transports for flexible IP based delivery. Broad compatibility with PAL, NTSC, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p formats ensures seamless integration across legacy and modern systems. It also incorporates advanced broadcast tools including CEA 708 closed caption support, SMPTE 2038 metadata processing, and SCTE standards, meeting the requirements of live and automated operations.

Featuring fanless operation within openGear frames and enterprise grade security controls, the OG 3G 2D offers low noise performance and dependable 24 or 7 operation. Remote firmware updates, JSON REST API management, and secure HTTPS control make it easy to deploy in studio, OB truck, or remote facility environments. Its rugged design, redundant network options, and professional signal handling capabilities deliver a robust decoding solution for mission critical workflows.
