SPG8000ABG - Overview

The SPG8000A is a precision multiformat video signal generator, suitable for master synchronization and reference applications. It provides multiple video reference signals, such as black burst, HD tri-level sync, and serial digital and composite analog test patterns, and it provides time reference signals such as time code, NTP (Network Time Protocol), and IEEE 1588 PTP (Precision Time Protocol). The base configuration includes three sync outputs that can be configured with independent output formats and independently adjustable timing offsets.

The SPG8000A can be optionally configured with a variety of test signal outputs. Option BG adds two analog black burst/tri-level sync outputs and two analog black burst/composite analog test. It also includes two composite analog outputs (NTSC or PAL) that can be used to generate test patterns such as color bars, or serve as additional black burst outputs.

Please note! This item is an add-on "option" to the Tektronix SPG8000A Master Sync / Master Clock Reference Generator. The SPG8000A is required and sold separately. Image is for reference only!

  • Features:

    • Multiple independent black burst and HD tri-level sync outputs provide all the video reference signals required in a video broadcast or production facility
    • Four LTC outputs, VITC on black burst outputs, and NTP server provide time reference signals in a variety of formats
    • PTP (IEEE 1588) support, including SMPTE ST 2059-2 and AES67 profiles
    • GPS/GLONASS-based synchronization gives an accurate time-of-day reference and deterministic video phase reference across multiple independent systems
    • Stay GenLock and Holdover Recovery prevent synchronization shock when the external reference input, PTP, or GPS/GLONASS signal is temporarily lost
    • Wide selection of video test patterns in serial digital formats (SD, HD and 3G-SDI) and composite analog formats (NTSC and PAL)
    • 4K/UHD formats support with full frame 100% and 75% color bars (Quad Link Square Division)
    • Dual hot-swappable power supplies ensure continuous availability of reference signals
    • Easy to manage with Web-based interface for remote configuration and SNMP for status and alert information
    • BG option Add Two Analog Black Burst/Tri-Level Sync Outputs & Two Analog Black Burst/Composite Analog Test
