Professional Video Solutions: Digital Video Serial Digital Interface HDMI HDBaseT DVI Displayport USB SDI or HD-SDI High Definition Multimedia Interface Digital A/V Digital Visual Interface Universal Serial Bus Digital Video World: The A/V industry is going through a transition form analog signaling to digital signaling. A wide array of digital video ports, including DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, and HD-SDI, are present in some form on virtually every new component found in the A/V industry. Although digital signaling is becoming predominant in the A/V industry, there is a wide range of analog hardware equipment in place today. For the foreseeable future most presentation A/V systems will require a mix of analog and digital video products. Digital video has been in existence for over 20years. HD-SDI or SDI has been in the medical, visualization, and computer graphics segments for over 10years, DVI was established in 1999. The newer standards are HDMI and DisplayPort which both can carry digital video and audio. The signals: DVI and DisplayPort are found on many PC’s and laptops and are standard on many professional displays and high-end projectors. HDMI is primarily found on HDTV capable products - BlueRay Disc players, game consoles, and satellite/cable DVR and receivers. HDMI was introduced as a consumer product, but has worked its way into the commercial product mix. Why Digital? • Lower cost computers and displays - Less A/D conversion in equipments • Digital signals are lossless, enabling the distribution of near pixel-perfect and consistent quality images while reducing the time and effort required for system and display set-up • A digital infrastructure can be designed to accommodate the high resolutions found in the A/V world today. -1920x1200 and HDTV 1080p. Challenges: Compared to analog signals, which is robust and can perform under distress form extended cabling distances, inadequate system design and installation, digital signals have to maintain full signal integrity through the system. If these signals are compromised by distances, or design the impact is more noticeable. Digital technologies such as DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort are primarily designed for short point-topoint connections. Distances in these applications are relatively short. But with extenders and Network cabling distances of up to 300ft can be achieved. Digital video signaling have very speci"c performance and timing parameters that need to be maintained for overall system functionality. Terms such as equalization, jitter, and reclocking replace terms of the analog world such as-leveling and peaking devices. In some digital video systems there is two way communication between source and display. If this communication is interrupted, such as following a disconnection, source switch, or signal split, image display can be delayed, or even lost completely. This communication is called EDIDExtended Display Identi"cation Data or DRM Digital Rights Management (associated with HDCP) High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection. EDID Extended Display Identi"cation Data (EDID): EDID is a standardized meaning for a display to communicate its capabilities to a source. The premise is for the display to communicate back to the source its operational characteristics, such as native resolution. The source then would generate the appropriate characteristics back to the display. This allows function between the two pieces of equipment without installer/user confguration. HDCP - Content Protection Digital Rights Management - Audio and Video Signals For digital video content protection HDCP in the most prevalent. HDCP is designed to prevent unauthorized access of protected video content and to enforce restrictions on authorized playback. HDCP enables video sources, such a Blu-ray disc players, PC’s, and other digital media devices always undergo a process to protect the video from unauthorized access. This process of HDCP authentication can serveral seconds or minutes to complete. This is a primary reason for the preceived sluggishness during startup or switching. Digital Video Standard Practices HD-SDI - Serial Digital Interface (High De"nition) HDMI - High De"nition MultiMedia Interface DVI - Digital Visual Interface DisplayPort A Digital Video: HD-SDI HD-SDI SDI or HD-SDI is a digital interface used for broadcast grade video. HD-SDI is standardized in SMPTE 292M, this provides data rates up to 1.485Gbps. SDI is a set of video standards for serial transmission of AV signals. SDI standards are primarily utilized on professional broadcast and video production equipment, with secondary use in live events, medical imaging, digital cinema, military training and simulation, as well as teleconference cameras and recording devices. Cable Design The cable designed to handle SDI/HD-SDI signals are of the best quality and have to meet testing guidelines. Cable Design: • Conductor - Solid Bare Copper • Dielectric - Foamed PE or Te#on • Concentricity of the conductor is extremely important in the design of an SDI cable. • The Formation and uniformity of the air bubbles can make a difference in performance. • Shield: 100% Aluminum Bi-Foil with a 90-95% Tinned Copper Braid. • Having both foil and high % braid will give the cable optimum noise protection • Jacket - Dependent on the environment - Non-Plenum, Plenum, Aquaseal Minimax: HD825 HD25825 RG59/U 819 Belden 1505A 25819 1506A RG6/U 6350 1694A 256350 1695A Connectors SDI equipment is set with 75Ohm Impedance inputs.

The digital AV signals are delivered over a single cable and connected with a small designed connector. The interface is between any AV source, such as a set-top box, DVD, and AV receiver. HDMI is the de facto standard in HD video (Consumer market). HDMI provides great AV quality over analog signals especially at higher resolutions. The interface provides a easy use, two way communication between source and display, and it is HD content ready- HDCP. 1.3 vs. 1.4 HDMI standards HDMI 1.3 standards (a, b) • Increases single link bandwidth to 10.2Gpbs • Supports 10bit, 12bit and 16bit deep color • Offers Mini HDMI connectors for portable applications HDMI 1.4 standards • Offers all that 1.3 offers • Supports 3D Viewing • Increases Sync pulses to help deliver a cleaner signal • Adds Audio channel return - TV with Built in Tuner - upstream/downstream audio Cat 1 vs. Cat 2 HDMI cables: • Cat 1: is the standard cable - will provide quality video for 720p/1080i - 2.23Gbps • .7425Gbps x 3 RGB Channels= 2.23Gbps Resolution • Cat 2: High speed- Quality video 1080p Deep Color - 10.2Gbps • 340Gbps x 3 RGB Channels= 10.2Gbps Resolution - 1440p/16bit color The bits: When you see 1080p 12bit color what is that really telling you? • 1080p operating @ 8 bit color- give a possible 16.7million colors • 1080p operating @ 12 bit color - give a possible 68.7 billion colors - HIGHER BANDWIDTH! Future Deep Color - 24bit, 30bit, 36bit and 48bit To prevent future system failures a premium grade HDMI cable has to be used! A 22AWG or 24AWG with low capacitance and low skew will handle these higher data rates for longer distances. HDMI standards do not recommend distances of more than 10meters (33feet), but with good solid cables, these distances can be increased significantly.

Our SHR cables have connectors which makes it difficult to pull, there is not an easy field installable HDMI connector, there is a possibility that low grade HDMI cables may be used in a permanent installation. The solution is to wire the installation with a minimum of CAT6 Shielded and upgrade to CAT6A Shielded when possible. By providing this type of cabling, the installer can chose HDMI Extenders (TX/RX). The installation would convert the HDMI signals to run longer distances over the Network cabling, then convert it back to HDMI. These installation can be cable managed with a simple Category 5E cable, but because of bandwidth limitations of Category 5E, future upgrades to the resolution will not be supported on these cables.
