Complete 16-Channel Video and Data Installation Kit
The FVMTRHA03A combines 16 channels of digital video with one channel of bidirectional serial data over a single multimode fiber connection.
The installation kit includes the 16-channel video transmitter, 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 location. A single fiber optic cable connects the two units, allowing the video and data signals to be transmitted between locations.
16 Channels of Digital Video Over One Fiber
The FVMTRHA03A supports 16 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, making the system suitable for a wide range of analog CCTV equipment.
Using a single fiber for 16 video channels provides an efficient solution for high-density surveillance installations where multiple camera feeds need to be transported to a centralized monitoring or control location.
Bidirectional RS-485 Data
In addition to 16 video channels, the FVMTRHA03A 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.
The additional data channel makes the FVMTRHA03A suitable for applications where video systems also require two-way serial communications, including PTZ camera control.
Multimode Fiber Transmission up to 1 km
The FVMTRHA03A uses 850/1310 nm multimode optics and supports transmission distances up to 1 km. The corresponding FVTMHA03A transmitter and FVRMHA03A receiver are both specified for 1 km multimode operation.
8-Bit Uncompressed Video
The VersiVision system provides 8-bit uncompressed video transmission with a video bandwidth of 5 Hz–8 MHz.
The technical specifications include 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 FVMTRHA03A incorporates WDM technology for higher reliability and is designed to provide transmission without EMI, RFI, crosstalk, or video distortion.
Fiber optic transmission also provides an electrically isolated communications path between connected locations, making it useful for video and data systems deployed across electrically noisy environments.
Plug-and-Play Installation
The FVMTRHA03A 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 16 video connections, bidirectional data connection, and single-fiber connection between the transmitter and receiver.
Standard ST, BNC and Data Connections
The FVMTRHA03A provides:
- ST simplex optical connector
- BNC video connectors
- Screw-terminal data connection
- One multimode optical fiber
ST-SC adapters are available for applications using SC fiber connectors.
1U Rack-Mount Design
The FVMTRHA03A is designed for installation in a standard 19-inch rack. The transmitter and receiver use a 1U-high rack-mount format, with dimensions of 17.60 × 9.33 × 1.77 inches.
This rack-mount design makes the system well suited for centralized security rooms, monitoring centers, and other professional video installations where multiple camera feeds need to be organized in equipment racks.
