INTRODUCTION
The RGB5000-FTX/FRX Digital Video Fiber Optic Transport System for RGB is a single-
fiber solution. It has been designed to increase the transmission distance limitations of high
resoulusion RGB and VGA video and computer graphics. The system will transport virtually any
VGA or VESA-compliant RGB signal from 640x480 VGA up to and including 1920x1200 WUXGA
as well as HDTV formats from 480I up to and including 1080P with full clarity over a single fiber.
Higher resolution formats above 1600 x 1200 (1920 x 1200 maximum) can be transported with a
minor loss in sharpness. The FTX transmitter unit can accept separate H and V sync as well as
separate composite sync, in any combination of polarities, as well as sync-on-green. At the FRX
receiver unit, the video output connector reproduces an exact replica of the sync. A loop through
port on the FTX allows connecting a local display monitor. The RGB5000-FTX/FRX also
supports the optional transport of 2 audio channels (one stereo pair). No additional fibers are
required for the audio option.
The RGB5000-FTX/FRX supports HDTV and non-RGB video formats such as YUV,
YCrCb or YPrPb. The RGB5000-FTX/FRX audio path is intended for line-level audio such as
might be obtained from a computer sound card. For professional 600 ohm balanced audio
applications, an external adapter or attenuator is recommended.
Applications include commodity and stock exchanges, medical and MRI displays,
advertising, digital signage, air traffic control and military tactical displays, scoreboards and much
more…
