AJA OG-12GDA-2x4 12G-SDI OpenGear jakovahvistinkortti

The AJA OG-12GDA-2x4 is a high-performance 12G-SDI distribution amplifier card designed for the openGear 2RU frame. It provides two independent 12G-SDI inputs, each with four reclocked outputs, supporting SD, HD, 2K, UHD, and 4K video formats. Ideal for broadcast, production, and post-production environments, this card ensures signal integrity over long cable runs with automatic equalization and reclocking.

Advantages

Supports the highest SDI data rates up to 12 Gb/s, backward compatible with all legacy SDI standards. Hot-swappable design allows for easy installation and maintenance without disrupting operations. Remote monitoring and control via openGear DashBoard network software simplifies system management.

Suitable for

• Broadcast studios requiring reliable SDI signal distribution
