Amphenol RF has expanded its 12G-SDI broadcast products. Four new products are available, with three intended to work with Belden 4505P cable: the 031-70572-12G, BNC Straight Crimp Plug; 031-70573-12G, BNC Straight Crimp Jack; 034-1137-12G, HD-BNC Straight Crimp Plug; and 031-70576-12G, BNC Straight PCB Jack, Bulkhead Mount.
These 75Ohm cable connectors have been created to work with 4505P cable and to meet SMPTE 2082 standards. Plenum cables have low smoke and low flame characteristics and are required when run in any air handling interior spaces.
The connector bodies are nickel-plated, and contacts are gold-plated, machined from brass or phosphor bronze. Components are intended to be crimped to 4505P cable, with consideration paid to improve assembly and connector performance for broadcast. The bulkhead mount PCB jack employs similar materials and plating. The design enables developers to eradicate a cabled connection, where the RF signal can be routed from a panel straight to a PCB.
These products are ideal for several applications, including mobile and fixed studio equipment, high-definition cameras, video encoders, and playback gear.
