About Link Electronics 1170A/1070

The DigiFlex 1170A/1070 1x8 SD SDI or ASI Distribution Amplifier from Link Electronics restores the incoming signal to its optimal amplitude. It reshapes the signal through automatic equalization, re-slicing, and DC restoration. The amplifier features a removable rear cell with eight outputs. A module fault LED on the front edge signals when the input signal level falls below a pre-set threshold, which can be adjusted based on user preferences.

Another module fault LED is located on the rear cell, making it visible from the back of the equipment rack. A specific rear I/O module must be selected to match the front signal module. The combination of the signal module and rear I/O module, along with the frame's flexibility, offers extensive versatility within the DigiFlex 1000 system. The 1170A supports composite 143 Mb/s, component 270 Mb/s, and 16:9 aspect ratio 360 Mb/s standards. It is transparent to the incoming signal data rate and provides a fixed output level of 800 mV.

Link Electronics 1170A/1070 Features

  • Restores signal amplitude with automatic equalization and DC restoration
  • Removable rear cell provides eight outputs for flexible signal distribution
  • Adjustable input threshold with front and rear fault LEDs for easy monitoring
  • Supports composite 143 Mb/s, component 270 Mb/s, and 360 Mb/s standards
