KONDOR BLUE has unveiled its new Fletch Fiber Module System, which converts HDMI 2.1 signals into native OM3 MPO fiber in a small and compact enclosure with no latency.
This system gives your HDMI camera output a built-in fiber port, which can be useful for video village setups, OB trucks, or remote feeds.
Key features
- Converts HDMI 2.0/2.1 to MPO Fiber
- Supports up to 8K60 or 4K120, 4:4:4 color
- HDR10 & Dolby Vision support
- Lossless, zero-latency transmission (2ns)
- Ultra-compact TX/RX units
- Rugged build for field or broadcast use
- USB-C or magnetic POGO pin power
- Optional 19″ 1U rack mount for 9 receivers
The system supports up to 8K60 or 4K120 with zero-latency transmission over distances of up to 1,000 feet.
You can mount the TX unit directly to your camera using:
- Gold Mountor V-Mount Battery Plate Pro (with magnetic POGO power for a truly wireless feel)
- Or secure it via 1/4″-20 or 3/8″-16 screws with locating pins powering with a USB-C power source.
You can use the RX straight out of the box as a rubber-footed desktop unit, or hard-mount to monitors, tripods, or DIT carts via ARRI-standard 3/8″-16 mounts.
If you need to scale up, you can slot up to 9 RX units into a single 1U rack, which is useful for multi-cam OB truck setups or control rooms.
Typical Cable Run Scenarios for a HDMI-to-Fiber System
On-Set Camera to Video Village
- Range: 50–100 feet
- Why: Large stages, outdoor locations, and backlot setups often place DIT/video village well away from cameras. Fiber eliminates SDI/HDMI range limits without adding latency or bulk.
Soundstage & Studio Builds
- Range: 100–300 feet
- Why: Permanent or semi-permanent installations inside studios benefit from clean fiber routing, especially when running multiple 4K/8K signals over high ceilings or through conduits.
Live Event, Venue, Theater AV
- Range: 300–500 feet
- Why: Larger venues need to span FOH to stage, backstage areas, or control booths.
Broadcast & OB Truck Multicam
- Range: 500–1000 feet
- Why: Fiber becomes essential when working on location (sports, concerts) where cable paths snake through crowds or long-distance venues.
