Artel Smashes the SDI-to-IP Barrier with Game-Changing FiberLink™ ST2110-TD Throw-Down Units

	"The Fiberlink ST2110-TD is compact and rugged. Throw it down wherever you need it. It just works." Tim Godby Director, Media Transport Systems PATTON

"Broadcasters shouldn't have to choose between preserving SDI investment or embracing IP communication," said Tim Godby, Director, Media Transport Systems.

Throw it Down. Drop It Anywhere. The ST2110-TD lives up to its name. This “throw-down” device is compact and portable. Engineers can deploy it almost anywhere. . . a studio floor, remote venue, or production truck. No rack required. Mounting options include DIN-rail, NEMA enclosures, and 1U rack-trays (for permanent installations).

“The FiberLink ST2110-TD offers ‘both-and’", Godby continued. “Product adopters get a strategic, scalable, flexible, and affordable path to reliably adapt existing SDI workflows to ST2110.

ST2110 Compliant. The FiberLink ST2110-TD follows the SMPTE ST 2110 standards in every detail:

• Video according to ST 2110-20 (single or dual channel)

• Audio according to ST 2110-30 (PCM)

• Ancillary data according to ST 2110-40

• PTP synchronization per ST 2110-10 for precise stream alignment

Real World. The ST2110-TD is engineered and manufactured for the demands of real-world broadcasting. Built-in smart features include:

• Autosensing SDI ports detect HD-SDI and 3G-SDI formats automatically

• Traffic shaping per ST 2110-21 ensures reliable, on-time video delivery

• Seamless redundancy via ST 2022-7 protection switching

• NMOS support for discovery, routing, and audio mapping

• Software upgradability adapts the unit to future standards

"PLUS. . . it's bidirectional," Godby added. "The Fiberlink ST2110-TD is compact and rugged. Throw it down wherever you need it. It just works”

Availability. Four ST2110-TD SKUs are available for pre-order. Initial deliveries expected in May. Configurations include 1-channel and 2-channel versions for encapsulation (SDI-to-ST2110) and de-encapsulation (ST2110-to-SDI). AC power adapters included.
