Setup Guide — 3G HD-SDI 101
The Extron® 3G HD-SDI 101 cable equalizer compensates
for signal degradation in coaxial cable and extends Serial
Digital Interface (SDI) signals up to 500 feet (150 m),
and High Definition SDI (HD‑SDI) or Third Generation
SDI (3G-SDI) signals up to 400 feet (120 m). It should
be placed at the end of a long cable run and close to the
output device.

N For SDI signals, the maximum length from the signal source to the 3G HD‑SDI 101 input
is 500 feet (150 m). For HD-SDI signals, the maximum length from the signal source to
the 3G HD‑SDI 101 input is 400 feet (120 m). To obtain maximum cable lengths, Extron
recommends the use of RG-6 type cable.
Step 5
Connect the cable from the HD-SDI display device to the female BNC output connector.
