TeleThon 3G - Multichannel CWDM Manager and HD/SDI Transport

Get datasheet
The TeleThon 3G is the single optical and electrical multiplexer that simplifies all your cabling needs.  It accepts electrical digital signals (via BNC), ranging from 19.4 Mbps up to 3Gbps uncompressed HD/SDI and optical signals of up to 3Gbps each, and multiplexes them for transmission in either or both directions. Up to 16 optical signals can be accommodated on one fiber, significantly increasing fiber capacity. The CWDM (coarse wavelength division multiplexing) capability of the TeleThon 3G system simplifies and multiplies the effectiveness of fiber optic cables, reducing operator costs and improving overall signal transmission capacity.

Huge Savings

The TeleThon 3G is our latest tool to reduce the cost and complexity of moving large numbers of wideband signals through fixed or mobile infrastructures.  With each fiber strand capable of moving up to 48Gbps of data, fewer fibers are used, resulting in less expensive cable and connector costs, and lower overall life cycle costs for broadcasters.

TeleThon 3G - CWDM management for broadcastThe new TeleThon 3G system is a compact 1 RU unit ideal for HD studio infrastructures, sports and field production, HDTV distribution on corporate and educational campuses, and other facilities requiring reliable, efficient delivery of HD and other signals.

New Life to Old gear

The true value of the TeleThon 3G system comes from its ability to accept an optical signal and re-transmit it on a CWDM wavelength. By doing this, your optical signal is being amplified and repeated. So whether you are using a new SHED/HDX system or your 10 year old Adder, the TeleThon 3G gives you a fresh optical budget and extends the usable life of these older fiber products. Now all of your existing fiber products are CWDM ready.

Simplify Complex Configurations

Since the TeleThon 3G accepts the optical output of virtually any digtial transmitter and turns it into a specific CWDM wavelength, there is no need for "wavelength specific" devices, such as Rattlers, DiamondBacks, etc., in your system. This represents a huge savings not only in the costs of the spares but in the overall complexity of managing the individual wavelengths.

When you add the power and convenience of the Teleport 3G to the high denisty signal transport of the Python 3G, you end up with an ideal solution for  handling your ever changing production requirements. Whether you need it in the studio or out on your mobile unit, the TeleThon will fit seemlessly into your existing fiber inventory and dramatically increase your signal transort capabilities.
