Complete 8-Channel Video and Data Fiber Optic Installation Kit

The FVMTR8A03A combines eight channels of digital video with a bidirectional serial data channel over a single multimode fiber connection.

The installation kit includes the video transmitter, video receiver, power supplies, and 100 meters of multimode fiber cable, providing the primary components needed to establish a complete fiber optic video and data link.

A typical installation places the transmitter at the camera or video-source location and the receiver at the monitoring or control location. A single fiber optic cable connects the two units.

Eight Channels of Digital Video

The FVMTR8A03A supports eight channels of 8-bit digitally encoded, broadcast-quality video over one multimode optical fiber.

The transmitter and receiver are directly compatible with NTSC, PAL, and SECAM camera systems, allowing the system to integrate with a variety of analog CCTV equipment.

The eight video channels provide a practical way to connect multiple analog cameras to a remote monitoring location without requiring a separate fiber connection for every camera.

Bidirectional RS-485 Data

In addition to eight video channels, the FVMTR8A03A provides one channel of bidirectional RS-485 data.

The data interface supports rates up to 300 Kbps, while RS-232 and RS-422 are available as optional configurations.

This data channel can be used where cameras or other equipment require two-way serial communications, including applications involving PTZ camera control.

Eight Video Channels Plus Data Over One Fiber

The FVMTR8A03A is designed to transport eight video channels and one bidirectional data channel over a single optical fiber.

This provides an efficient fiber optic connection for multi-camera systems where video and serial data need to be transmitted together between remote locations.

Multimode Fiber Transmission up to 2 km

The multimode version uses 850/1310 nm optical transmission and supports distances up to 2 km.

This makes the FVMTR8A03A well suited for facilities and surveillance installations where multiple cameras are located within a 2 km multimode fiber transmission range.

8-Bit Uncompressed Video

The VersiVision system provides 8-bit uncompressed video transmission with a video bandwidth of 5 Hz–8 MHz.

The datasheet specifies differential gain below ±1%, differential phase below ±1°, tilt below 1%, and a 60 dB weighted signal-to-noise ratio.

Reliable Fiber Optic Video and Data Transmission

The FVMTR8A03A incorporates WDM technology for higher reliability and is designed without EMI, RFI, crosstalk, or video distortion.

Fiber optic transmission also provides electrical isolation between connected locations, making it useful for video and data communications in environments where electrical interference can be a concern.

Plug-and-Play Installation

The FVMTR8A03A uses a plug-and-play design for adjustment-free installation and operation. No electrical or optical adjustments are required, while LED indicators provide immediate visibility into system operating status.

The wiring diagram on page 3 of the datasheet illustrates the eight video connections and the bidirectional data connection between the transmitter and receiver, with the complete link carried over a single simplex singlemode or multimode fiber.

Standard ST, BNC and Data Connections

The FVMTR8A03A provides:

  • ST simplex optical connection
  • BNC video connections
  • Screw-terminal data connection
  • One multimode optical fiber

ST-SC adapters are also available for applications using SC fiber connectors.

Standalone or Rack-Mount Installation

The transmitter and receiver can be deployed as standalone units or installed in the VERSITRON FVC18 18-slot chassis. The units are also hot-pluggable into the FVC18 chassis, providing a flexible option for higher-density installations.

8-Channel Video and Data Applications

The FVMTR8A03A is suited for applications requiring multiple analog video signals and bidirectional serial data to be transmitted over fiber, including:

  • CCTV video surveillance
  • PTZ camera systems
  • Multi-camera security systems
  • Remote video monitoring
  • Security control rooms
  • Industrial video monitoring
  • Manufacturing facilities
  • Transportation monitoring
  • Facility surveillance
  • Remote camera installations
  • Fiber optic video and camera-control links
