Fiber Optics For Telemedicine Industry


The medical and healthcare industry is no longer limited by means of treatment. With the advancement in technology, remote treatment techniques like telemedicine have emerged. In earlier times, doctors attended patients physically at their clinics or hospitals. Ever since telemedicine technology has been introduced, the patients can be treated remotely and effectively. This technology has now made medical treatment global. Although this seems easy for both parties involved, it still demands a robust network infrastructure. The use of traditional copper cable networks is not sufficient for safe and encrypted medical data transmission. This is where fiber optic technology comes into action. VERSITRON offers quality-driven fiber optic solutions for the medical & healthcare industry. These fiber optic solutions are used widely for telemedicine and in the medical and healthcare industry in various capacities.

VERSITRON’s Telemedicine Industry/ Medical and Healthcare Industry Solutions

Medical and healthcare industries are vulnerable to data transmission losses, third party intrusions, etc. The safety of the patient’s personal and medical information is covered under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). This act prohibits the disclosure of sensitive information without the patient’s knowledge. Any violation of HIPPA may lead to severe penalties where the organization and involved individuals both may be fined. Thus, healthcare facilities, hospitals, and healthcare practitioners offering telemedicine or regular treatment need to strictly adhere to guidelines laid by HIPAA. So, when it comes to the implementation of telemedicine technology in the medical and healthcare sector, it is essential to ensure the security of stored, shared, or processed data. All of these concerns can be resolved by using various solution-driven fiber optics technologies from VERSITRON. The following are a few fiber optic solutions provided by us.

  • Fiber Data and Voice Links: This category comprises serial-to-media converters that are fiber optic modems. Since telemedicine technology involves an established common fiber-optic network between the doctor’s and patient’s networking devices, these fiber optic modems are used to set up the network. The electronic communication can be made using our fiber optic modems. This communication may involve videos, graphics, or audio exchange. The range of fiber optics modems at VERSITRON involves FOM- II- Circuit card format transmission device, micro models, FOM- chassis, and accessories.
  • High-Definition Transmitters & Receivers: Telemedicine network demands high- definition video transmission which is achieved by VERSITRON’s HD transmitters and receivers. By using these devices, high-definition video transmission can be achieved for patient’s healthcare interrogation, test result interaction, etc. The range of HD transmitters and receivers involves 1, 2, 4, and 8 channel digitally encoded HDMI-video systems, AHD, HD-CVI, HD-TVI video modules. All these modules are compatible with NTSC, SECAM, and PAL camera systems.
  • CCTV Fiber Optics Video Kits: Telemedicine involves remote medical surveillance for patients with intensive care requirements.  Therefore, VERSITRON’s CCTV fiber optic video kits are utilized for setting up medical surveillance networks. It is an integrated set of fiber optic cables, converters, modems, etc. These CCTV networks can be linked with telemedicine remote clinic mobile apps.

Beneficial Features of Telemedicine Industry/ Medical and Healthcare Industry Solutions

VERSITRON’s fiber-optic medical solutions for healthcare offer the following beneficial features.

  • HIPAA Compliance: HIPAA compliance is the most essential feature of our fiber optic solutions for the medical & healthcare industry. HIPAA demands point-to-point communication only on a need to know basis. Our fiber optic solutions for telecommunication stick to point-to-point encrypted data transmission by using fiber optic switches to secure and strategize the data transmission.
  • Anti-Intrusion Fiber Optic Products: Our fiber optic solutions feature premium quality fiber optic cables and related products. They are immune to third party intrusion, information theft, noise, and harsh environmental conditions.
  • PACS Compatibility: Our fiber optic products are compatible with Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS). PACS compatibility offers security while sharing images of patient’s reports and digital examination.
