SDI – How Far Can You Run?

Blog Category: by

Serial digital interface (SDI) video signals, the uncompressed, unencrypted digital signals that were developed by SMPTE (the Society of Motion Picture Television Engineers), an integral part of high-definition broadcast transmissions.

Although fiber is an option, most SDI signals use a 75 Ohm coax, an industry staple in broadcast for many years. Coax has a proven track record of reliability and is easy to terminate and install, with excellent electrical characteristics that offer very good performance.

As more and more coax cables for SDI signals hit the market, broadcasters need to determine how long they can run these cables and their camera systems. To give broadcasters the info they need, Belden have created a table based on signal loss recommendations for given formats as specified by SMPTE, an updated table that features the new formats, the new versions of cables, and their maximum recommended transmission distances.

It is however important to note the bit error rate (BER) can vary dramatically as the calculated distances are approached. BER is dependent on receiver design and the losses of the actual coax used. OEM specifications should be consulted to verify their maximum recommended transmission as performance can vary based on the type of active equipment specified. Some manufacturers aren’t designing all their 12 GHz receivers to reach the maximum loss level, which could result in distance reductions of up to 50%. This variance is recognized in the SMPTE 2082-1 Standard, however, receivers designed to work with greater or lesser signal attenuation are acceptable.

The table is based on attenuation or signal loss at one-half the signal frequency as defined by SMPTE and based on signal type. The distance values are for cables only; they don’t include connectors, bulkheads or other items used to connect cables and add loss.

As the industry continues to move towards 12 Gb/s single-link as part of SMPTE 2082-1, it’s now critical for designers to verify distance. To do this, check with your equipment manufacturers to confirm the type of cable needed to reach the distance you want to meet. To support 12G-SDI Belden created a new series of coax cables specifically for 12 GHz bandwidth. Belden’s 4K UHD Coax Cable for 12G-SDI supports 4K content without a change to fiber. It gives designers access to the best possible performance in a coax cable sweep tested to 12 GHz signal.

While some broadcasters have switched to fiber optic cabling to achieve greater distances (JAYCOR supports these cables too), coax cable isn’t dead. In fact, there are many applications where coax is still preferred.

Ensure your broadcast performance stands out for all the right reasons. Downtime, delays, and distortion have an immediate far-reaching impact. Reliable AV cabling solutions help you achieve absolute signal integrity and 100% uptime, no matter the conditions.

JAYCOR’s Belden AV cabling and connector solutions support fast, easy assembly and maintenance while ensuring long transmission distances in all weather conditions. Drag these cables below roads, above trees, around a stadium and off and on the stage every week—they’re ready for anything.

JAYFOIL – Data Cables

Blog Category: by

With 35 years of experience, we have so much to celebrate! JAYCOR created JAYFOIL, a data cable product range which was designed specifically to serve our customers’ needs and wants. One of the biggest benefits of the JAYFOIL product range is being able to customize our products to your specifications, another is accessing a wide range of stocked core/pair combinations, conductor sizes and screens to suit many applications.

With Big-data, Cloud and Edge-computing, IoT, advanced fibre and 5G networking being much of the focus in today’s IT and OT technologies. Simple yet highly effective analogue and serial-digital communication protocols fall out of view. However, these critical communication signals are still widely used in today’s technologies, industries, and devices while they continue to play a significant role in our connected world.

With the continued demand for analogue and serial data communication channels, the need for reliable and high-quality, multi-core and multi-pair communication cables remains essential. That is why we created JAYFOIL to ensure that our customers remain satisfied with high end, quality products.

In South Africa, several manufacturing facilities continuously battle low-quality imported products that utilize low-grade materials and cut corners to try and ensure lower production costs and prices. Cables with low-grade copper, incorrect strandings, drain wires, screen coverage, radial-wall insulation and sheath thicknesses, manage to find their way into original equipment manufacturer’s (OEMs) end-products. This drastically decreases the quality, reliability and longevity of the electronic components and equipment, making JAYFOIL’s products superior as we prioritize the customer’s needs and ensure that all products are made of the best quality.

As an industry staple in South Africa for over three decades, the JAYFOIL range of data cables continues to deliver reliable high-quality communication channels for analogue and serial transmissions. Developed locally by JAYCOR and manufactured in accordance with British Defense-standard 61-12, part 4 and 5. JAYFOIL cables ensure OEM electronics transmit and receive signals with the correct resistances, current-carrying capacities, voltages, EMI shielding and earthing. Safeguarding electronic components and delivering the required performance characteristics, make our products one of the most desirable products on the market.

The future of LiDAR is now

Blog Category: by

Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) has come a long way from when it was first introduced and then deployed on the surface of the moon in 1969. Back then it was in the form of the lunar laser ranging retroreflector array, weighing 77-kilograms, and mounted in a 46-centimeter (18-inch) square aluminum panel. It also must have cost a pretty penny!

 

But, the rapid growth of the LiDAR industry has brought with it questions regarding its applicability, mainly in the form of size, weight, power consumption, affordability, and data retrieval. These questions need answering now, and it’s here where the future of LiDAR lies.
