BENESTON

BENESTON VCF-MF01TX/RX-T video capturing device single-mode 20km

SKU CH-QXYP-SHC5A

Transmits SD/HD-SDI video up to 20 km over single-mode fiber with embedded 8-channel audio and RS485 tally loop output

  • Automatic SD/HD-SDI detection simplifies source switching
  • Single-mode SFP/LC fiber extends video up to 20 km
  • Beldon 1694A equalisation and retiming preserve signal quality
  • Transmitter loops HD-SDI out while receiver provides dual outputs
  • Eight channels of embedded audio travel with the video

Single-fibre HD-SDI converter kit

The BENESTON VCF-MF01TX/RX-T is a transmitter and receiver pair that carries SD or HD-SDI video over a single-mode fibre link up to 20 km. It serves broadcasters, CCTV installers and live-production crews who need to move a camera signal far beyond copper limits.

Cable equalisation and retimed outputs

The transmitter equalises the incoming signal using Belden 1694A reference performance and retimes the data before optical conversion, so jitter does not accumulate over the full distance. The receiver delivers dual HD-SDI outputs with eight channels of embedded audio preserved, maintaining a clean signal after extended transmission.

Single-mode fibre with LC SFP modules

Both units use LC-connector SFP modules for single-mode fibre, fixing the link at one wavelength and a 20 km reach; buyers who need multi-mode fibre, longer reach or a different connector must choose another model.

Questions about this item

Will the SFP/LC single-mode fibre link add noticeable heat or power draw when running continuously?

The transmitter and receiver each ship with a 5 V / 1 A power adapter, so total draw is modest and the units stay cool during all-day operation.

Which cables and SFP modules must I already have to connect the transmitter and receiver over 20 km?

You need single-mode fibre terminated with LC connectors plus a compatible SFP transceiver pair; the box includes only the two converter units and power adapters.

Can the receiver’s dual HD-SDI outputs feed both a legacy monitor and a modern recorder at the same time?

Yes — the receiver provides two independent HD-SDI outputs, so an older display and a newer capture device can be driven simultaneously.
