12G/6G optical sdi compatibility
Posted: Tue Jan 14, 2020 2:00 pm
Hi,
I need to setup a live production system with an Atem 1 M/E and 4 Panasonic AW-UE150 PTZ cameras.
Production decided to wire these with fiber, but I have some concerns.
AW-UE150 documentation refers the fiber output as "12G-SDI", but Atem 1 M/E only takes 6g-SDI. It should be fine, as we'll only do 2160p25, but...
- Does setting the camera in 2160p25 suffice to output 6G-SDI (cameras documentation never mention 6G-SDI)?
- Does the camera signal will be compatible with the Atem switcher?
- What should I chose for transceiver? 6G-SDI? Does it work if I have a 12G transceiver in one side and 6G on the other side?
It's actually the first time I work with optical fiber...
Thanks in advance for your help.
