Multiformat Master Sync/Clock Reference Generator

Model: SPG8000A

Multiple independent black burst and HD tri-level sync outputs provide all the video reference signals required in a video broadcast or production facility
Four LTC outputs, VITC on black burst outputs, and NTP server provide time reference signals in a variety of formats
PTP (IEEE 1588) support, including SMPTE ST 2059-2 and AES67 profiles
GPS/GLONASS-based synchronization gives an accurate time-of-day reference and deterministic video phase reference across multiple independent systems
Stay GenLock® and Holdover Recovery prevent synchronization shock when the external reference input, PTP, or GPS/GLONASS signal is temporarily lost

The SPG8000A is a precision multiformat master sync and master clock generator, suitable for hybrid sync generator and PTP (IEEE 1588) grandmaster clock reference generator applications. It addresses the emerging needs of customers who plan to migrate from traditional SDI-based to IP-based video (including live production) infrastructure in stages.

Stay GenLock® and Holdover Recovery prevent synchronization shock when the external reference input, PTP, or GPS/GLONASS signal is temporarily lost
Wide selection of video test patterns in serial digital formats (SD, HD and 3G-SDI) and composite analog formats (NTSC and PAL)
4K/UHD formats support with full frame 100% and 75% color bars (Quad Link Square Division)
Dual hot-swappable power supplies ensure continuous availability of reference signals
Easy to manage with Web-based interface for remote configuration and SNMP for status and alert information
Applications
Sync generator and time reference generator for broadcast, studio, mobile, and post-production facilities
Master or slave (genlock) operation for distributed system architectures
Video equipment verification, facility link testing, and display calibration
