OP+VTX

Autosensing, bidirectional analog/SD/HD video and 4x analog audio, 2x RS-232/422/485, Ethernet fiber transceiver

The OP+VTX transceiver module enables professional broadcast-quality transport of duplex video, audio and ancillary data over a single fiber optic interface. Every module contains both transmitter and receiver blocks. Occupying two slots within a 6800+™ frame, the OP+VTX supports one autosensing mixed video channel and two analog audio channels. Additionally, the OP+VTX supports one 10/100 Base-T Ethernet and two RS-232/RS422/RS485 serial data communication ports. Available in both 1310nm and CWDM/DWDM wavelengths, the OP+VTX module is ideal for any facility — from broadcast and post-production to satellite, cable and telco — that requires the transport of analog composite or SDI video and analog audio signals over fiber optic lines.

Features

  • Autosensing support for analog, SD-SDI, or HD-SDI video input
  • Support for black-burst or tri-level sync.
  • Four analog audio inputs
  • Four analog audio outputs
  • Dual bidirectional independent RS-232/422/485 (two- or four-wire)
  • Support for 10/100 Base-T Ethernet
  • SFP transceiver adaptability
  • Optical power monitoring and alarm thresholds
  • Card-edge, remote and full CCS control and monitoring
