The 3GDA111R is a reclocking distribution amplifier providing high quality distribution of 3Gb/s HD, HD or SD sources.

It gives eleven reclocked outputs.

The 3GDA111R is ideal for those seeking information about their signal, especially in big systems, and provides remote monitoring of input present and 3G/HD or SD signal through either the Statesman PC software or SNMP, allowing alarms to be set on loss of input and change in signal type.

Fitting in the standard Crystal Vision frames (available in 4U, 2U, 1U and desk top box sizes), the 3GDA111R is a 'double decker' 100mm x 266mm module which fills two frame slots and allows up to six DAs in 2U.

It uses the RM41 and RM34 frame rear modules together to access the one input and eleven outputs.

The 3GDA111R gives excellent jitter performance on long cable runs. It can handle all data rates up to 3GHz and easily meets the -10dB input return loss that must be achieved for 3GHz, along with the -15dB input return loss required for 1.5GHz.

With auto detection of input, it will recognise whether the standard is HD or SD and switch the output slew rate automatically, in addition to illuminating the appropriate LED.

The 3GDA111R will always choose an appropriate cable equaliser for the signal type, ensuring an SD cable length in excess of 250m with Belden 8281 or equivalent, and up to 140m for HD and 80m for 3Gb/s with Belden 1694A - with no data errors.

There is LED indication of input and power supplies present.

Ideal for use in those big systems with its remote monitoring features, the 3GDA111R is suited to providing high performance, multiple-output distribution for multi-standard environments, for broadcasters who need to distribute 3Gb/s now or in the near future, and for engineers who want to 'future proof' their SD or HD installations.
