Complete 2-Channel Video, Data, and Audio Fiber Optic Installation Kit
The FVMTR2BB5A combines two video channels, two bidirectional data channels, and two bidirectional audio channels into one fiber optic transmission system. The installation kit includes a 2-channel video transmitter, receiver, power supplies, and 100 meters of singlemode fiber, providing the primary components needed to establish a complete video, data, and audio link.
A typical installation places the transmitter at the camera or field equipment location and the receiver at the monitoring or control location. A single fiber optic cable connects the two units, allowing all of the video, data, and audio channels to travel between locations.
Two Video Channels Over One Fiber
The VersiVision FVMTR2BB5A provides two channels of 8-bit digitally encoded video over one singlemode optical fiber. The system is directly compatible with NTSC, PAL, and SECAM camera systems.
Each unit provides two BNC video connections for the two video channels. The wiring diagram on page 3 of the datasheet illustrates the two video connections between the camera/source equipment and monitoring equipment.
Two Channels of Bidirectional Data
The FVMTR2BB5A provides two channels of bidirectional RS-485 data. Data transmission supports rates up to 300 Kbps, while RS-232 or RS-422 are available as optional configurations.
This allows serial data and control signals to travel alongside the two video channels over the same fiber connection.
Two Channels of Bidirectional Digital Audio
The FVMTR2BB5A provides two channels of bidirectional audio in addition to the video and data channels. Audio is digitally encoded at 24 bits, with a 600-ohm impedance, 2.0 Vp-p input/output level, and a frequency response of 10 Hz–20 kHz.
This makes the system useful for installations requiring audio communication in both directions along with video and data.
Multiple Signals Over One Singlemode Fiber
The FVMTR2BB5A consolidates multiple communication functions onto a single fiber:
- 2 channels of video
- 2 channels of bidirectional data
- 2 channels of bidirectional audio
The product uses one optical fiber and incorporates WDM technology for higher reliability.
This approach can simplify fiber cabling for installations where multiple communication signals need to be transmitted between remote locations.
8-Bit Digital Video Transmission
The video system provides 8-bit uncompressed video transmission with a bandwidth of 5 Hz–8 MHz and a specified video S/N ratio of 60 dB weighted.
The system supports NTSC, PAL, and SECAM video formats, making it compatible with a range of analog CCTV camera systems.
Singlemode Fiber Transmission Up to 30 km
The FVMTR2BB5A uses the FVTM2BB5A transmitter and FVRM2BB5A receiver, which are specified for singlemode transmission up to 30 km using 1310/1550 nm optics.
This makes the FVMTR2BB5A particularly useful when two-channel video, bidirectional data, and bidirectional audio must be extended over longer distances.
WDM Technology for Higher Reliability
The VersiVision system incorporates WDM technology for higher reliability while transmitting the video, data, and audio channels over a single optical fiber.
Fiber optic transmission also avoids the EMI, RFI, crosstalk, and video distortion identified in the product datasheet.
Plug-and-Play Installation
The FVMTR2BB5A is designed for adjustment-free installation and operation. No electrical or optical adjustments are required, and LED indicators provide immediate visibility into system operating status.
Standard ST, BNC, and Screw-Terminal Connections
The FVMTR2BB5A uses:
- ST simplex optical connector
- BNC video connectors
- Screw-terminal connections for data and audio
- One singlemode optical fiber
ST-SC adapters are available for applications using SC fiber connectors.
LED Indicators for System Monitoring
LED indicators provide immediate visibility into system operating status. The wiring diagram on page 3 shows the video, data, audio, and power connections on both the transmitter and receiver.
Standalone or Rack-Mount Installation
The FVTM2BB5A transmitter and FVRM2BB5A receiver are available for standalone or rack-mount installation with the FVC18 18-slot chassis. The units are also hot-pluggable into the FVC18 chassis.
2-Channel Video, Data, and Audio Applications
The FVMTR2BB5A is suited for applications requiring multiple video, serial data, and audio channels over long-distance singlemode fiber, including:
- CCTV video surveillance
- PTZ camera systems
- Remote video monitoring
- Security monitoring
- Industrial video monitoring
- Camera control and serial communications
- Remote audio monitoring
- Control rooms with multiple video sources
- Remote surveillance locations
- Long-distance video transmission
- Fiber optic systems requiring multiple bidirectional communication channels
