Product Environment
The 8945EDA and 8945EDA-D modules are installed only in a Gecko Flex frame.
They may not be installed in older 8900 frames. The devices can be located in
broadcast centers, video production facilities, OB vans and production trucks. The
main application of those products is the distribution of the incoming SD/ASI or
HD SDI signals to the video processing devices (routers, switchers, tape recorder,
monitoring devices, etc.). Usually, those devices are located in the area of the
reception transmission signal.
