7707VAT-HD & 7707VAT-U-HD

HD-SDI with 4 Balanced or Unbalanced AES Audio Fiber Transmitter

Interact with this product in a Layout Tool:

The 7707VAT-HD is a VistaLINK® capable, fiber optic transmitter for HDTV or SDTV video and AES audio signals. This single card module accepts one HD-SDI or SD-SDI video plus four AES audio and transmits them on a single fiber. The companion 7707VAR-HD receiver converts the HD-SDI and AES back to separate video and audio.

The 7707VAT-U-HD has unbalanced audio connections and is identical to the 7707VAT-HD in all other aspects.

The fiber output is available in an assortment of optical wavelengths, accommodating 1310/1550nm, CWDM and DWDM transmission schemes.

The 7707VAT-HD occupies one card slot and can be housed in the 1RU 7801FR frame which holds up to four single or two dual slot modules, the 3RU 7800FR frame which has a 15 slot capacity, the portable 3RU 350FR frame which has a 7 slot capacity, or a standalone enclosure which holds a single module.
