SRA-8901A 12G SDI Distribution Amplifier

The SRA-8901A is a high-performance distribution amplifier for digital video signals, designed for openGear frames. It supports a wide range of formats including SDI from 270Mb/s to 12Gb/s, plus ASI and MADI, making it a versatile solution for any video facility infrastructure. Built for premium signal integrity, the SRA-8901A delivers long cable equalization on the input and automatic reclocking on all outputs, with auto-sensing of the incoming rate. Status is available at a glance through local card-edge LEDs, while DashBoard provides full remote configuration, monitoring, and control. Two rear module options support either a 1×5 configuration at up to 20 cards per frame, or a 1×10 configuration at up to 10 cards per frame. Key Features

• Wide signal support Handles SDI from 270Mb/s to 12Gb/s, plus DVB-ASI and MADI for flexible deployment across modern and legacy infrastructures.
• Non-inverting outputs for ASI Outputs are non-inverting to enable full utilization in DVB-ASI distribution applications.
• Passive rear module, hot-swappable card The rear module is completely passive, enabling the active card to be hot-swapped from the front of the openGear frame without de-cabling.
• High density Install up to 10x 1in/10out or up to 20x 1in/5out distribution amplifiers in a 2RU openGear frame.
• Long-reach input equalization Excellent input equalizer performance helps maintain signal integrity across long cable runs.
• Automatic rate detection with reclocking on all outputs Auto-senses the incoming rate and applies automatic reclocking, delivering clean, stable signals to the outputs.
• At-a-glance status plus DashBoard control Card-edge LEDs show key status information, including card status and input signal lock. Full monitoring and configuration is available in DashBoard.
• 5-year transferable warranty
