1.0 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The 272E Series is a low-cost and high-performance Unidirectional Fiber
Optic Video Transmission System with Bi-directional Audio and Data.
The standard 272E system is designed to transmit one (1) NTSC/PAL
baseband video channel in one way, with bi-directional one (1) audio
channel and one (1) serial data (RS-232/RS-422) channel over one
multimode or singlemode fiber. Versions with multiple audio/data channels
are also available. Many versions of optical transmitter and receiver
combinations are available to address different distance requirements.
The 272E comes with two packaging options: a rugged, standalone, and
compact unit, or a plug-in card for a card cage system. Panel connectors
are provided for video (BNC), audio/data (terminal block), and fiber
connection (ST-type for singlemode and multimode fiber). They are also
easily monitored by separate LED indicators for power, optical link, and
channel activity. The units are powered by +12VDC.
Due to its digital transmission design, the 272E is capable of addressing
a variety of non-standard configurations. Note that Figure 1-1 illustrate
the various 272E models.
