FiDO is a range of SDI/Fiber optic converters that allow SDI, HD-SDI and 3G SDI signals to be transported over distances of up to 10km using single-mode fiber optic cable with LC connectors. FiDO converters comply with all SMPTE standards, and are built on a solid, versatile base, perfectly suited for use both in the studio and on location.
With 5 different models, FiDO offers unprecedented flexibility at a particularly attractive price. Dual-channel FiDO models enable two-channel conversion, perfect for 3D, dual-channel SDI, or two completely independent SDI channels (for example, SD, HD and 3G can be mixed in any combination). What's more, FiDO converters offer electrical isolation to eliminate all loop problems.
FiDO converters come in a compact, low-profile enclosure for use in confined spaces, around and behind rack-mounted equipment, OB vans and complex installations.
