The Theatrixx Technologies 12G-SDI to Fiber xVision Converter with PowerCON In/Edison Loop-Thru (Single-Mode, ST) is a professional broadcast-grade device engineered to convert 12G-SDI video signals to optical fiber for extreme long-distance transmission in live events, broadcast studios, rental houses, touring, and permanent AV installations. Single-mode fiber operation enables reliable signal transport over distances measuring several kilometers, making this converter ideal for large-scale venues, stadiums, campus-wide video distribution, and remote production facilities. The compact, plug-and-play converter accepts a 12G-SDI input on BNC and transmits the signal over single-mode fiber via a standard ST connector, supporting all professional video formats up to DCI 4K60 with embedded audio passthrough.

True to Theatrixx's road-focused design philosophy, the xVision series eliminates the weakest links common in consumer-grade converters—flimsy enclosures, fragile wall-wart power supplies, and unreliable connectors. The unit features an integrated power supply with a locking Neutrik powerCON input and a built-in NEMA 5-15 Edison AC courtesy outlet capable of delivering up to 10 amps to power a nearby projector, television, laptop, or other device directly from the converter, eliminating the need for separate power bars. The reclocked and amplified SDI loop-through BNC allows daisy-chaining to additional local equipment without signal degradation. The rugged metal chassis incorporates a magnetic stacking system with non-skid rubber pads, allowing multiple converters to be stacked securely without tape—saving rental houses considerable time and material. Multiple mounting options including C-clamp, wall-mount adapter, LCD mount adapter, and belt adapter provide installation flexibility for any deployment scenario.

The conversion path fully supports 12G-SDI (SMPTE ST 2082-1 and 2082-10), 6G-SDI (SMPTE ST 2081-1), 3G-SDI (SMPTE 424M Levels A and B), HD-SDI (SMPTE 292M), and SD-SDI (SMPTE 259M) standards. The SFP-based optical transmission design ensures interoperability with standard SDI-over-fiber devices from other manufacturers. Clear status LED indicators provide real-time feedback for power, signal lock, and fiber link status. The enclosure is constructed with connectors mechanically secured to the frame rather than relying solely on PCB mounting, ensuring that cable strain distributes across the chassis rather than internal electronics. Theatrixx Technologies designs and assembles these converters in Canada, with certifications including CAN/CSA, UL 60950-1, and FCC Part 15 Class A.
