12 LDK 4410 + LDK 5420 3G Fiber Transmission System User’s Guide (v1.0)
Chapter 1 - Introduction
3G Fiber transmission offers video transmission and remote control of cameras up to a
distance of 4,000 m (13,120 ft), using hybrid fiber cables.
Transmission quality can be precisely monitored before and during operation right from the
OCP 400 operational control panel.
1.2.2 Dockable adapter
The dockable principle allows a choice of transmission and thus the greatest flexibility and
cost-effective solutions in multiple applications.
1.2.3 Base station
The base station is only 2U high yet offers full broadcast functionality and quality. The low
height means that rack space is saved. Its low power consumption and efficient internal
cooling eliminate the need for space between adjacent units. Sliding rails are additionally
available for easy access to the back panel. The wings on either side of the back panel protect
all connectors from damage, including the Fiber connector. The Fiber connector itself can
easily be mounted at different angles to suit all mounting requirements.
1.2.4 Operational controls
You can access the base station menu, which contains all operational settings, from an
Operational Control Panel. In addition to the operational menu, the installation and service
menus can be activated from the base station by pressing a switch behind the front panel. The
base station is compatible with all existing control system components.
An OCP 400 operational control panel can be connected directly to the base station using a
cross-over Ethernet cable.
Full camera control is provided via a C2IP Ethernet-based control network.
1.2.5 Intercom
The communication facilities provide for two-wire or four-wire high quality intercom signals.
