The GS12090, announced and demonstrated at the IBC show last week, is the industry’s highest performing, configurable 12G UHD-SDI cable equalizer/cable driver. It is ideally suited for use in applications with limited space for connectors, including broadcast video servers, modular I/O cards, PCIe cards, portable recorders and players, and more.

This is the second award this year for Semtech from TV Technology. The GS12070 UHD-SDI Gearbox won the same award at the NAB Show in April. TV Technology uses a panel of industry experts to judge nominated products based on design, features, cost efficiency and performance.

“This award is further testament to our unmatched UHD-SDI product portfolio that allows our customers to provide cutting-edge solutions for UHD and HDR infrastructures,” said Don Shaver, Director of Video Marketing for Semtech’s Signal Integrity Product Group. “We are excited to receive our second award from TV Technology this year.”
