SMPTE Studio Camera Hybrid Fiber Converters & Power Supplies
SMPTE-HUT Series
We work in an industry of hybrid workflows and solutions, but sometimes we need authentic innovation that changes how we work. MultiDyne’s next-generation SMPTE-HUT Series is the definition of a pure solution that elevates the live production workflow. SMPTE-HUT universal camera transceivers free SMPTE-based camera chains from the limitations of hybrid copper and fiber cabling, and removes interferences associated with copper connectivity. Camera operators instead have a plug-and-play system that requires only two stands of single-mode fiber - reducing costs, weight, and set-up times – while ensuring the best possible signal integrity. With options to multiplex camera signals, boost the optical range of cameras and regenerate optical power over fiber, SMPTE-HUT is a purist’s solution for remote broadcasting, sports production and other long-distance SMPTE studio camera applications.

Loss of Video Detectors
Program video and audio (balanced or unbalanced) is routed through the SG-8. With program video present at the input to the SG-8, the video and audio outputs of the SG-8 are the program signals. Upon loss of the video portion of the program input, the SG-8 defaults to internal SMPTE Color Bars and 1 kHz tone.

Digital Fiber Multiplexers & Wavelength Shifters
FiberSaver Series
We don’t always have unlimited amounts of fiber at our disposal. Whether working in pre-fibered event venues, houses of worship or moving camera signals across busy metropolitan areas, fiber counts can quickly add up – especially when bi-directional optical transmission is required. MultiDyne’s FiberSaver Series is built for the system designer who needs a robust yet compact solution for signal links where fiber strands are limited, or where fiber feed requirements exceed budgets. FiberSaver products help technicians send and receive more optical signals over fewer fibers. Wavelength-agnostic inputs will multiplex just about any digital optical coming from SMPTE cameras, Network Switches, etc., and combine them with several optical matrix inputs. Scalable in increments of six channels, content producers now have a cost-effective solution to carry extra signals for sports production, distance learning and remote broadcasting.

Audio Generator
AG-51
The AG-51 Audio Generator contains a low distortion 20 Hz to 200 kHz sine wave generator, an SMPTE standard intermodulation signal generator and a fixed frequency sine wave generator at 3.15 kHz for wow and flutter tests. Signal outputs are simultaneously available at levels of up to +20 dBm (equivalent sine wave power for complex signals) at separate left (L OUT) and right (R OUT) output connectors. Outputs may be selected for left (L) only, right (R) only, left and right in phase (L+R), and left and right in phase opposition (L-R). Fully balanced or unbalanced outputs at impedance levels 150 ohms or 600 ohms are front panel selectable. Three precision attenuators (10, 1.0 and 0.1 dB) provide a dynamic range of 99.9 dB in 0.1 dB steps. Attenuator dials display the output level directly in dBm in the 150 ohm source impedance configuration. Automatic output leveling circuitry with a built-in self-test feature provides a constant output level thereby eliminating the need for output metering. In the TEST mode the generator output level is reduced to zero, a useful feature during noise measurements.

VITC Readers & Generators
Analog composite video and generates standard SMPTE VITC time code and inserts it into the first few lines of active video rather than into the vertical interval where normal VITC is located. This allows the VITC time code to be recorded on various digital video recorders that record the picture content but do not record the actual vertical interval portion of the video signal and in this way allows you to use these digital video recorders to record high quality video and VITC time code.

Fiber Optic Camera Adapters
SilverBack Series
We all appreciate the dramatic flair of cinematic video. Creating high-resolution broadcast content with cinematic quality has historically been a tall order, from cost of entry barriers to workflow integration. MultiDyne developed its SilverBack Series to help content producers convert digital cinema cameras into SMPTE studio cameras for live multi-camera production. SilverBack fiber camera adapters are lightweight “cameraback” systems ideal for live concerts, sports, TV productions and worship services. There are several models to meet varied budgets, all vendor-agnostic and engineered to adapt the user’s camera of choice. SilverBack systems offer modular designs to support diverse I/O configurations, with all signals carried over a single tactical or hybrid fiber cable. Hybrid and tactical fiber conversion as well as remote powering through MultiDyne JUICE portable power supplies further empower mobility for camera operators.
