Omnitek Announces Ultra 4K Tool Box For SMPTE 2015

News Image
Omnitek has said it will showcase the Ultra 4K Tool Box – an advanced UHD solution – at SMPTE 2015.

The Ultra, which has been shipping with 4K support over quad 3G-SDI, 6G-SDI and DisplayPort since 2014, was upgraded to support single-link 4K over 12G-SDI earlier this year; and following a successful evaluation, has been shipping since June to a range of manufacturers from 'glass-to-glass'.

The 12G-SDI T&M solution features tools for physical layer and data analysis, plus generation and conversion of signals from SD to 4K. It provides a complete platform for manufacturers, broadcast networks and systems developers to build, test and commission UHD-TV products and infrastructure with complete confidence.

It also introduces jitter spectrum and histogram tools to easily ascertain source and spread of jitter on an incoming signal. A real-time 12G-SDI Eye diagram featuring automatic rise and fall-time measurement is also available to give a comprehensive physical layer analysis solution specifically tailored to the broadcast industry.

The sophistication of the Ultra's advanced physical layer analysis functionality is demonstrated against a high-end digital oscilloscope in the white paper, '12G-SDI Physical Layer Analysis using the Ultra 4K Tool Box', freely available from the Omnitek website.
