Tektronix HDST1 for Rent, HD-STI Stress Test Module for TG2000

Product Highlights

The Tektronix HDST1 is a HD-SDI Stress Test module that supports stress test capability for 1.485 and 1.485/1,001 Gb/s HD-SDI signals.  The HDST1 takes in a single HD-SDI signal and outputs a stressed HD-SDI signal.  HD signals from test signal generators (including the HDVG1 module), as well as from HD camera, VTRs, or switchers, can be used as the input signal.  Signal stressing options include jitter (amplitude or frequency), amplitude, duty cycle, and random error insertion.  The HDVG1 is recommended as a signal source, since it is capable of providing a signal with low residual jitter, as well as the ability to incorporate its frequency offset stress feature.

Features of the Tek HDST1 include:

• Amplitude and duty cycle of the output signal, jitter amplitude and frequency, and error rate are adjustable in real-time from the front panel of the TG2000
• Cable simulator of 20 m and 100 m
• Error insertion
• Calibration signal output
• Full remote control using GPIB or RS-232C Interface
