BZBGear 12G 6G 3G HD SD SDI Pattern Generator

Design

Encased in a durable metal housing, this unit is equipped with carefully chosen still and moving test patterns that allow video engineers to quickly test SDI equipment and cabling.

Importance

A video test pattern generator may be important if troubleshooting a video display is necessary. Video test pattern generators can help AV technicians fine-tune displays in various categories in the field. 

Support

As an advanced SDI pattern generator, the BG-SDITPG supports multiple SDI formats such as 12G, 6G, 3G, HD, and SD. It also has multi-pattern support to test different kinds of display characteristics.

Signals

The BG-SDITPG video test pattern generator supports a maximum resolution of 4K2K at 60Hz. With two simultaneous 12G-SDI outputs, users can test two signal chains at once. The test patterns can be transmitted at 12G/6G/3G/HD/SD-SDI formats, ensuring full compatibility with legacy systems. 

Control

This unit can also generate up to 8 channel AES-compliant audio signals at a 48kHz sampling rate. The easy-to-use interface of the BG-SDITPG is operated using the LCD screen and 4 top cover buttons.
