Introdution
The 1608 systems provide simultaneous transmission of up to 4 channels of SDI over
one fiber. Employed with WDM or CWDM, the 1608 can be expanded to deliver 8 to 64
SDI channels over one fiber. Many versions of optical transmitter and receiver
combinations are available to address different distance coverages.
No user adjustments are required in the 1608 system due to the use of advanced digital
fiber optic transmission technology. This allows for a quick and easy setup, offering
trouble-free operation for many years to come.
The 1608 is available in two packaging options: a rugged, standalone unit housed in a
compact case, or a plug-in card for our card cage system. Panel connectors are
provided for the serial digital video (BNC connector) and fiber connectors (FC-type for
the singlemode version, or ST-type for the multimode version). The 1608 is easily
monitored by front panel LED indicators for power, optical link, and channel activity.
The 1608 design is capable of addressing a variety of non-standard configurations,
available upon request. To order a customized version or OEM/private brand name,
