Broadcast Fiber Transport for Multi-Rate SDI Production Workflows

KINGS PARK, NY – September 09, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

As broadcast facilities continue to adopt higher-resolution workflows and more flexible production configurations, signal transport remains a key consideration when designing or upgrading infrastructure. MultiDyne Video & Fiber Optic Systems offers fiber-optic transport equipment for broadcast and professional AV applications, including solutions that support 12G, 6G, 3G, and HD-SDI signals.

MultiDyne’s broadcast fiber transport portfolio includes equipment for transporting video, audio, data, genlock, and timecode over fiber. Its 12G/6G/3G/HD-SDI product families include FiberSaver, Field Fiber, VF-9000, openGear, SilverBack, NanoBriX, BullDog Mini, VersaBrix, and SilverBULLET platforms. The company provides options for permanent installations as well as portable and field-deployable production environments.

The product range reflects the different requirements of modern signal paths. Studios and control rooms may use rack-mounted or modular equipment as part of a centralized infrastructure, while live productions and remote operations can require compact equipment that is easier to deploy in the field. MultiDyne’s fiber transport platforms are available in configurations intended for these different installation and operating conditions.

One example is the SilverBULLET line of optical extenders. According to MultiDyne’s product documentation, SilverBULLET units support multi-rate SDI signals ranging from 5 Mbps to 12 Gbps over single-mode fiber. Features listed for the platform include automatic input sensing, cable equalization, and SDI reclocking. The units can also transport embedded audio and data, while available CWDM wavelength configurations support optical multiplexing applications.

MultiDyne also offers fiber transport solutions through the openGear ecosystem. The company’s OG-7700/7800 series supports 12G, 6G, 3G, HD, and SD-SDI/ASI applications and provides transport capabilities for video, audio, data, genlock, and timecode. This type of modular equipment can be incorporated into facilities using openGear-based infrastructure.

For applications where compact form factors are important, the NanoBriX family includes dual-channel fiber transmitters and receivers for 12G, 6G, 3G, HD, and SD-SDI signals. MultiDyne documentation specifies single-mode fiber transmission distances of up to 10 kilometers for applicable NanoBriX models. The company lists applications including live broadcast, arenas and stadiums, shared control rooms, and campus facilities.

The availability of multi-rate equipment also allows production facilities to support different generations of SDI infrastructure. HD-SDI, 3G-SDI, 6G-SDI, and 12G-SDI can require different bandwidth and transport considerations, particularly as facilities incorporate higher-resolution video into existing production environments. Fiber-optic transport can extend signal paths over longer distances while providing an alternative to copper-based connections for certain applications.

MultiDyne has developed fiber-optic transport and signal-conversion equipment for broadcast, cable, satellite, production, digital cinema, and professional AV applications. Its product portfolio encompasses solutions for studios, network facilities, mobile production operations, live events, and other environments where video and related production signals must be transported between locations or pieces of equipment.

For broadcasters and professional AV operators evaluating fiber transport equipment, MultiDyne provides technical specifications and application information for its various platforms. Details on supported SDI formats, transmission distances, interfaces, and available configurations can be found in the company’s product documentation.

Additional information about MultiDyne Video & Fiber Optic Systems’ broadcast fiber transport solutions, including equipment for 12G, 6G, 3G, and HD-SDI applications, is available through the company’s website at https://www.multidyne.com/. Visitors can review individual product platforms and technical information to evaluate fiber transport options based on their signal formats, transmission distances, and production infrastructure. The site also provides information about available configurations, interfaces, and applications across the company’s fiber-optic product families. Reviewing these resources can help broadcast and professional AV teams better understand the capabilities of different systems when planning new installations, upgrading existing signal paths, or supporting evolving production requirements.
