Overview
The OG-FiDO-4 family delivers high-density, four-channel SDI and fiber conversion for broadcast, production, sports, live events, house of worship, campus installations, and Pro AV infrastructure. Designed for applications where growing camera counts and long SDI runs demand greater fiber density, OG-FiDO-4 supports up to 40 independent SDI/fiber channels in a single openGear frame.
Built around a common four-channel architecture, the OG-FiDO-4 family offers nine configurations for 12G-SDI single mode, 3G-SDI single mode, and 3G-SDI multi-mode LC fiber. Choose from four-channel transmit, four-channel receive, or two-channel transmit/two-channel receive models to match the signal direction and fiber requirements of each installation.
All four SDI BNC connections are independent and fully isolated, allowing different supported SDI data rates to be carried simultaneously. Automatic data rate detection and reclocking help maintain signal integrity, while SDI ancillary data, including HDR metadata, passes transparently through the signal path. Remote monitoring via openGear DashBoard software provides centralized operational visibility, complemented by onboard Input Present and SMPTE Lock LEDs for fast local status verification.

OG-FiDO-4 Family Connections
Four Independent Channels. Nine Configurations.
The OG-FiDO-4 architecture combines four independent SDI BNC connections with four optical fiber channels in a compact two-slot openGear design to create nine fiber configurations. This common hardware architecture provides a consistent approach to building high-density fiber transport while allowing each card configuration to be matched to the requirements of the signal path.
