Overview 

 

3  Overview 

The 

673T

 is a high-performance fiber optic transmitter for 3G HD-SDI, 

HD-SDI, SDI, and dual-link SDI signals. The unit converts up to four 
channels of serial digital signals on gold-plated BNC connectors to light 
pulses that are transmitted over a single multimode fiber optic cable to a 

673R

 

receiver that converts them back to serial digital signals. 

The 

673T

 and 

673R

 pair has a transmission range of 1000 meters (more than 

3,200ft). 

Both the 

673T

 and 

673R

 

Feature a maximum data rate of up to 3Gbps, enabling it to be used for 
standard definition, high definition and the new 3G high definition serial 
digital video signals (SD/HD-SDI) 

 

Feature a single multimode OM3 fiber optic with SC

 

connectors 

 

Include four HD-SDI signals on gold-plated BNC connectors each for the 
transmitter and the receiver 

 

Support SDI, HD-SDI, 3G HD-SDI and dual-link

Are strictly regulated in accordance with Class 3R Laser Eye Safety in 
compliance with ANSI Z136 and IEC 60825-1:2007 

 and support data rates 

of 270Mbps, 1483.5Mbps, 1485Mbps and 2970Mbps

2 Standard Definition (SD) means an NTSC or PAL compatible video format, consisting of 480 (for NTSC) or 576 (for PAL) 

lines of interlaced video 

3 High Definition (HD) means a video format, consisting of 720 active lines of progressive video or 1080 lines of progressive 

or interlaced video
