cable
Van Damme now has 2 single flexible digital coaxials to add to the established 4 and 6 way
flexible HD Vision low loss multicores. All are suitable for analogue, SDI and HD-SDI
transmissions. The 2 single coaxials are based around industry standard RG6/U and RG59/U
and their precision construction ensures that electrical performance has not been majorly
affected by the use of a stranded centre conductor.
Applications
Single coaxials
• Transmission of HD-SDI, SDI and analogue video signals
• Stranded centre conductor for flexible use
• Ideal for use as patchcords, shorter HD-SDI cables and cable reel systems
• Designed for touring, outside broadcast and other dynamic uses
Multicores
• Transmission of HD-SDI, SDI and analogue video signals
• Approved by Digidesign for use with the Venue console
• MADI multicore
• Designed for touring, outside broadcast and other dynamic uses
Application notes
• Use of precision 75 Ohm components throughout any signal chain is imperative
Transmission length guidelines
These transmission lengths have been calculated throughout to a maximum attenuation of -30dB at the frequency
corresponding to half of the actual signal data rate for SMPTE 259 and -20dB for SMPTE 292 and 424. SMPTE and
others advise that 90% of this cable length introduces an appropriate safety factor - the chart below includes an 80%
safety factor as jitter and other factors can increase dramatically in the last 20% of a cable run.
