AJA OG-FIDO-2R-12G openGear 2-Channel Single Mode LC Fiber to 12G-SDI Receiver, DashBoard Support

The OG-FiDO-2R-12G is a state of the art, openGear compatible, 2-channel Fiber to 12G-SDI converter, enabling 12G-SDI signals to be extended up to 10 km (32,808 ft) over standard single mode fiber optic cable. The two fiber inputs are completely independent allowing different 12G-SDI rates to be carried on each channel.

AJA openGear OG-FiDO products are designed for use in high density openGear 2RU frames including AJA's OG-X-FR frame, with industry standard DashBoard software support on Windows, macOS and Linux, offering remote control and monitoring over a PC or local network.

Example OG-FiDO-2R-12G Signal Flow Diagram
This diagram shows four OG-FiDO-2R-12G openGear cards being used in a OG-X-FR rack frame that is housed in an OB Truck. The rack is close to the mobile production gallery. Up to 10km away is a live concert event stage, which is being covered by eight 12G-SDI cameras. In pairs, these cameras are connected to OG-FiDO-2T-12G converters, providing a 12G-SDI to fiber conversion. The four OG-FiDO-2R-12G openGear cards provide the fiber to 12G-SDI conversion from the fiber pairs received from the stage. These eight 12G-SDI feeds are driving the OB truck production gallery monitors with ultra low latency.

Connectivity
Both Fiber and 12G-SDI inputs are reclocked with best in class input jitter tolerance. 12G-SDI input and output support, which includes 6G/3G/HD/SD-SDI. Both signal paths are independent and can be different rates. Supports single mode fiber cable.

openGear Compatibility
The openGear standard ensures that AJA cards will be compatible with other openGear products from certified openGear partners. With a growing list of products, openGear is the future of rackframe products.

Flexible I/O
The modular rear panel allows custom I/O connections per card (included with individual cards).

Failsafe
The optional redundant power supply provides a secondary power source in the event of a primary power failure.

Ethernet Access
A standard Ethernet connection allows the frame to be accessed via the Dashboard application for overall frame communication. Optional per-card Ethernet access can be installed in the frame for advanced communication with compatible openGear cards.

DashBoard Software
DashBoard software offers quick and convenient configuration and control of openGear cards on macOS, Windows, and Linux.
