Technical Architecture & Functionality
The Opticis SVDF-200 is a single-format fiber-optic video converter that accepts S-Video or Composite inputs and converts them into a single-core optical DVI signal for long-distance transport over fiber.
It is designed for SD sources using NTSC/PAL (480i/576i). SVDF-200 upscales SD input to SXGA (1280×1024) @ 60Hz for the remote DVI display path, enabling stable long-run delivery in environments where copper cabling is impractical or noisy.
SVDF-200 automatically operates based on the first incoming input (S-Video or Composite), and provides the matching loop-through output (S-VIDEO OUT or COMPOSITE OUT) for convenient on-site monitoring at the source. For the remote endpoint, pair it with the Opticis DVFX-100-R receiver to convert the optical DVI back to electrical DVI for the display.
Key Engineering Advantages
Rescue Legacy SD Video
Bring older S-Video/Composite sources into fiber-based AV runs by converting directly to an optical DVI link.
Predictable Remote Output
Upscales NTSC/PAL (480i/576i) to SXGA 1280×1024 @ 60Hz for stable display output at the remote DVI endpoint.
First-Input Auto Selection
Automatically operates as S-Video or Composite converter based on whichever input becomes active first.
Local Monitoring Built In
Use loop-through S-VIDEO OUT or COMPOSITE OUT for on-site confidence checks without disturbing the fiber link.
Deployment Flexibility
Install cleanly with optional VESA bracket mounting or rack up to four units in 1RU using OPSCR-1U.
