3G-SDI CWDM SFP Optical Transceiver 1270-1610nm 60km MSA Compliant

Model: LNK-CWDM-SFP3G-XX60

 Product Description & Overview

The 3G-SDI CWDM 1270~1610nm 60km Digital Video SFP Optical Transceiver (MSA) represents a

cutting-edge solution for extended-range professional video transmission, delivering exceptional

performance across unprecedented distances. This high-performance MSA-compliant optical transceiver

supports the complete 18-wavelength CWDM spectrum from 1270nm to 1610nm, enabling efficient

bandwidth multiplication over existing single-mode fiber infrastructure. Engineered for robust operation

across data rates from 50Mbps to 2.97Gbps, the module maintains superior signal integrity when processing

complex SDI pathological patterns, ensuring reliable performance for SMPTE 259M, SMPTE 344M, SMPTE

292M, and SMPTE 424M compliant video signals in demanding broadcast environments.

Featuring advanced optical technology, this digital video SFP transceiver achieves exceptional transmission

distances up to 60 kilometers while maintaining full 3Gbps signal quality, representing a significant advancement

in long-distance video connectivity. The hot-pluggable SFP form factor ensures seamless integration with broadcast

routers, video extenders, and media conversion equipment, while the precision-tuned DFB transmitter technology

provides stable wavelength performance across varying environmental conditions. The integrated digital diagnostics

monitoring through I2C interface enables real-time performance tracking and proactive maintenance capabilities,

essential for mission-critical broadcast operations.

Certified as Class I Laser products compliant with FDA/CDRH and IEC-60825 safety standards, this optical transceiver

guarantees safe operation without requiring special protective measures. The extended 60km reach makes it particularly

suitable for metropolitan-area video networks, distributed campus broadcasting systems, and large-scale event production

requiring long-haul signal transmission. This solution empowers broadcasters and system integrators to maximize existing

fiber infrastructure while achieving broadcast-grade video quality across extended distances, establishing new benchmarks

for cost-effective, high-performance video transport in next-generation broadcast and professional AV applications.
