FieldCast Mux/Demux Three 12G (16x SDI In/Out)

The FieldCast Mux/Demux Three 12G is the ultimate fiber-optic SDI transmission solution, enabling up to twelve 12G-SDI video signals to be carried over just three single mode fiber cores. Designed for uncompromising signal density and reliability, this system is perfect for high-end broadcast, event production, and large-scale AV systems where every fiber counts.

Core Features

• Transports 12x SDI signals (12G/6G/3G/HD-SDI) via just 3 fibers.

• Utilizes CWDM technology to combine 4 SDI channels per fiber.

• Delivers massive signal bandwidth in a small footprint.

• Models available with FieldCast ruggedized connectors or standard LC for integration into any infrastructure.

• Compliant with SMPTE ST 2082, ST 2081, ST 424, and ST 292 standards.

System Configuration

Each Mux/Demux Three 12G unit contains:

• 12 x BNC connectors (input or output depending on model).

• 3 x Optical ports (each handling 4 SDI signals via CWDM).

• Preconfigured internal cascade of three Mux/Demux One 12G units.

Why Three 12G?

• Higher channel density with fewer fibers—perfect for limited cable pathways or mobile rigs.

• Saves space, simplifies cable management, and increases efficiency.

• Ideal when maximum throughput over minimal fiber is the top priority.

Power & Build

• Operates on 12V DC (locking connector; adapter included).

• Compact, lightweight chassis for rack or standalone installation.

• Seamlessly integrates into FieldCast power and fiber management systems.

Use Case Scenarios

• Large OB trucks and mobile control rooms

• High-density AV over fiber deployments

• Studio interconnects across multiple zones

• Events where minimizing cable weight and complexity is crucial
