Key Features
- Bidirectional 12G UHD-SDI operation supporting data rates up to 11.88 Gbps for broadcast and pro AV
- Adaptive cable equalization automatically compensates for coaxial cable lengths up to 100 m at 3G-SDI rates
- Integrated cable driver and re-timer in a single QFN package reducing BOM and board area
- Multi-rate auto-detection supporting 12G, 6G, 3G, HD, and SD-SDI standards
Applications
The GS12090-INTE3Z is designed for professional broadcast infrastructure equipment such as production switchers, routers, and distribution amplifiers operating at 12G UHD-SDI rates. Its bidirectional adaptive equalization and cable driving capability makes it ideal for long-haul coaxial cable runs in studio and outside broadcast environments. The integrated re-timing function ensures signal integrity for 4K and 8K video transport over existing SDI infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum data rate supported by GS12090-INTE3Z, and which SDI standards does it cover?
The GS12090-INTE3Z supports data rates up to 11.88 Gbps, covering 12G-SDI, 6G-SDI, 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, and SD-SDI standards. This multi-rate auto-detection capability makes it suitable for mixed-rate broadcast facilities handling both legacy SD and modern 4K UHD signals.
How far can GS12090-INTE3Z drive a 12G-SDI signal over a coaxial cable?
At 12G-SDI rates (11.88 Gbps), the GS12090-INTE3Z adaptive cable equalizer compensates for cable losses typically encountered over coaxial runs of approximately 30 m, while at 3G-SDI rates it can handle cable lengths up to 100 m, maintaining signal integrity within broadcast specifications.
Which package type is the GS12090-INTE3Z available in, and what does that mean for PCB layout?
The GS12090-INTE3Z is available in a Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) package, which offers a low-profile compact footprint with exposed thermal pad for efficient heat dissipation. This package minimizes board area and is well-suited for dense broadcast hardware PCB layouts operating at 11.88 Gbps signal frequencies.
When would GS12090-INTE3Z be preferred over a passive cable equalizer in a studio router design?
In a studio router carrying 12G UHD-SDI signals at 11.88 Gbps over variable-length coaxial runs, an active adaptive equalizer like GS12090-INTE3Z is preferred because it automatically adjusts equalization gain across cable lengths from a few meters to 100 m, something a fixed passive equalizer cannot achieve without manual tuning per cable length.
