Middle Things Fiber Dispatch 5
Designed for multi-camera on-site workflows, the Middle Things Fiber Dispatch 5 converts 5 pairs of SDI In/Out 4K video signals to 5 optical fiber outputs, using robust Neutrik OpticalCon Duo connectors.
Standard 1U rack design
Thanks to its compact 1U rack design, the Fiber Dispatch converter fits perfectly into your existing video rack, allowing you to connect up to 5 cameras with the Fiber Camera Box. Built-in fans ensure proper cooling of all converters for a smooth workflow.
Made for efficiency and 4K over long distances
Have you ever had the time-consuming task of running two different SDI cables to a single camera, one for the input and one for the return feed? The Fiber Dispatch 5 combines each of these cable pairs into a single optical fiber cable, which is lighter and much more reliable than traditional copper BNC cables because it is immune to all electromagnetic disturbances. You can run your fiber optic cable for thousands of miles without outages.
Commonly used standard fiber optic connector
The Neutrik Optical ConDuo connector makes this converter compatible with both the widely used LC / LC fiber cables and Neutrik's rugged Optical Con Advanced Duo & Duo Lite cables, designed for use on location and harsh environments. The connector has a built-in automatic termination that protects the fiber cores once the cable is disconnected.
Many possibilities with the Middle Fiber products
In combination with a Fiber Camera Box, a Fiber Unite or a Fiber Bridge, many configurations are possible that will greatly improve your daily multi-camera workflow!
The Fiber Dispatch 5 can be used with the Middle Things Fiber Camera Box 6G, Bridge 5, Bridge 10 and the Blackmagic Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G converter with 6G SFP modules.
It supports single mode LC fiber optic cables, as well as Neutrik OpticalCon Duo and OpticalCon Duo Lite cables.
Supported SDI video signals are 3G and 6G (max 2160p30 ).
