Canare

Canare 32MD-STS Mid-Size Video Patchbay 32 Jacks 1.5RU

SKU CH-0VXQ-N53B3

A 1.5RU patchbay holds 32 straight-through video jacks rated from DC to 3.0GHz for serial digital video signals

  • 32 channels across simplify studio routing
  • DC to 3.0GHz return loss exceeds 10dB for clean signals
  • Rotary switch design speeds up patching workflow
  • Beryllium copper gold-plated contacts resist corrosion reliably
  • 5RU form factor fits dense rack installations

32-Channel Mid-Size Video Patchbay

The Canare 32MD-STS provides 32 straight-through mid-size video jacks in a 1.5RU frame. It is built for studio, OB van and broadband telecom environments that need dense, reliable signal routing. Professional engineers use it to monitor and test serial digital video equipment efficiently.

DC to 3.0GHz Return Loss Performance

The patchbay maintains greater than 10dB return loss from DC to 3.0GHz, supporting 3G-SDI, HD-SDI and SD-SDI signals. Gold-plated beryllium copper centre contacts ensure consistent conductivity. The Canare original rotary switch design preserves signal integrity during normal patching operations.

Rotary Switch and Staggered Layout

The proprietary rotary switch mechanism reduces mechanical wear compared to conventional designs. A staggered jack arrangement simplifies cable management in tight rack spaces. These features combine to speed up reconfiguration and reduce downtime in live production workflows.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 32MD-STS patchbay and what step is often missed?

Mount the 1.5RU unit in a standard rack and connect each of the 32 mid-size jacks to the corresponding circuit; the step often missed is verifying that every BNC cable locks firmly into the gold-plated centre contact before assuming the path is live.

What maintenance will the 32MD-STS need over time?

Periodically inspect the 32 straight-through jacks for dust or oxidation on the beryllium-copper contacts and clean them with a contact-safe solvent; the rotary switch mechanism itself is sealed and requires no lubrication.

What limit appears first when the 32MD-STS runs continuously at 3G-SDI rates?

The return-loss specification holds to greater than 10 dB up to 3.0 GHz, so the first limit under sustained 3G-SDI use is the 3.0 GHz bandwidth ceiling — signals beyond that frequency will degrade.
