Key Product and Technology Demos

NEW!! SilverBack 4K5 Fiber-Optic System for 4K Quad-Link 3G Camcorders

At the 2015 NAB Show, MultiDyne will showcase an expanded line of SilverBack 4K camera-mounted fiber transport solutions, which now support any existing 4K camera. The new SilverBack 4K5 enables users to broaden the range of their existing 4K cameras by converting any quad-link 4K camcorder to a 4K live fully systemized camera, connected to a base station with a single fiber cable.

The SilverBack 4K5 provides a full-bandwidth fiber-optic link between any quad- or dual-link 4K camera and the truck, control room, or "video village" position. By putting all of the signals needed for multicamera 4K/UHD TV production onto a single tactical or SMPTE hybrid fiber cable, the system ensures robust, trouble-free connectivity, whether used in the studio or at a remote location.

NEW!! Mini eXchange Series Compact Converters

At the 2015 NAB Show, MultiDyne will introduce a new line of highly affordable, compact, and portable signal conversion modules called the Mini eXchange Series. The Mini eXchange Series compact converters feature a small, flat-form factor that facilitates easy installation behind a monitor, in the back of a rack, or directly on a camera rig. Each module is dedicated to a specific application, with the first models supporting HD-SDI-to-HDMI and HDMI-to-SDI conversion. Other format converters will be available in the future.

All Mini eXchange Series compact converters are covered by MultiDyne s renowned 7-year warranty and a "no questions asked" replacement policy. In addition, they come standard with a universal power supply that includes international plug connections for global use and can run off battery power, if required.

SilverBack 4K Camera-Mounted Fiber Transport for 4K Productions

The MultiDyne SilverBack 4K is a powerful family of camera-mounted fiber transport solutions that supports the creation and distribution of 4K/UHD digital television content. Utilizing SilverBack 4K, users can seamlessly transmit any camera signal including Ultra HD video, HD-SDI video, audio, intercom, control data, GPIOs, tally, and power over a single hybrid copper and fiber cable.

The SilverBack family now includes five models: the new SilverBack 4K5 , the flagship SilverBack-II ; the SilverBack-II-L for multicamera production; the SilverBack-II 4K-L, a feature-rich model that includes Ethernet support and a video option for viewfinder or monitor viewing in the field, enabling any 4K camera to be used as part of a multicamera Ultra HD shoot; and the SilverBack II-4K, a low-cost model without the viewfinder/monitor viewing option, designed to support traditional film-style productions. Ultra HD support can be added to any existing SilverBack system through a simple upgrade, enabling customers to deliver a state-of-the-art 4K television experience cost-effectively.

SilverBack-II With JUICE Camera-Mounted Fiber Transport Solution

The MultiDyne SilverBack-II with JUICE is a cost-effective, camera-mounted fiber transport solution capable of transmitting any camera signal, including HD-SDI video, audio, control data, GPIOs, tally, and power over a single hybrid fiber and copper cable without relying on local power or batteries. Featuring an elegant, compact case measuring just over one inch thick, the SilverBack-II with JUICE eliminates operator fatigue in the field by providing users with a lightweight, remote powering system that can be seamlessly integrated onto any camera.

Ideally suited for news, sports, ENG, D-SNG, OB, and multicamera studio applications, the SilverBack-II with JUICE can transport SDI video up to 3G HD-SDI uncompressed with embedded or separate program audio. A return video option also supports up to 3G HD-SDI video for viewfinder or monitor viewing in the field. In addition, the unit enables operators to achieve camera control/RCP paint functions through one of the three available data channels. An additional back channel is available for camera sync or genlock.

4K-4000 Fiber-Optic Transport System

Also on display at the 2015 NAB Show will be the MultiDyne 4K-4000 fiber-optic transport system. Designed to address the tremendous data requirements involved with delivering 4K/UHD digital television, the 4K-4000 enables users to transport a 4K signal over one single-mode fiber. The cost-effective unit is portable or rack-mountable, offering users a high degree of flexibility. There is also a card version for the openGear platform with SNMP management and redundant power.

BullDog Field Fiber Transport System

The MultiDyne BullDog is a rugged field-based fiber transport system that packs a wide range of functionality into a compact package. In addition to demonstrating the standard compact version at the 2015 NAB Show, MultiDyne will highlight two larger-sized units that pack even more functionality into a rugged and compact form factor.
