Security
Video and 2-Channel Data Multiplexer
The IFS VT/VR71630DRDT-R3 video transmitter/data
transceiver and video receiver/data transceiver series
utilizes state-of-the-art 8-bit digital encoding and decoding
for high-quality video transmission that exceeds the
requirements of EIA RS-250C for Medium-Haul Video
Transmission. These environmentally hardened units
provide transmission of sixteen independent video
channels and two bi-directional data channels over one
single mode optical fiber and are ideal for use in
unconditioned roadside or out-of-plant installations.
Completely transparent to and universally compatible
with any NTSC, PAL, or SECAM CCTV camera system, all
standard pan-tilt-zoom control signals including RS-232,
RS-422, or 2 or 4-wire RS-485 with Tri-state and Sensornet
supported. Plug-and-play design ensures ease of
installation and no electrical or optical adjustments are
ever required. LED indicators are provided for rapidly
ascertaining equipment operating status, and these units
are available in rack-mount configurations only.
