Product Overview
DESCRIPTION
The FT8301A/FR8301A fiber transmitter and receiver provide the ability to transmit one composite
video channel over one optical fiber (refer to Figure 1). .
Figure 1. Single-Channel Video FT8301A Transmitter and FR8301A Receiver
In addition to compatibility with each other, the FT8301A transmitter and the FR8301A receiver are
compatible with other fiber models:
• The FT8301A transmitter is compatible with the FR8302A receiver and is also backward
compatible with the FR8301 receiver.
• In addition to compatibility with the rack-mountable FT8301A transmitter discussed in this
manual, the FR8301A receiver is compatible with the miniature FT8301A transmitter and is
also backward compatible with the FT8301 transmitter.
Features of the FT8301A/FR8301A fiber optic transmission system include the following:
• 8-bit digitally encoded video for high-quality video transmission over a single fiber
• Multimode fiber support for distances up to 6 km (3.7 mi)
• Single-mode fiber support for distances up to 46 km (28.6 mi)
• Exceeds all requirements for the RS-250C Medium-Haul Transmission specification
• Compatible with NTSC, PAL, and SECAM video standards
• Designed to meet NEMA TS 2 and Caltrans traffic signal control equipment standards for
ambient operating temperature, mechanical shock and vibration, humidity with condensation,
high-line/low-line voltage conditions, and transient voltage protection
NOTE: Conformal coating is required for operation in environments with relative humidity
above 95% (condensing).
• No performance adjustments required
• 12 VDC or 24 VAC power supply
• LED indicators for monitoring of signal status, laser status, and operating power
The FT8301A transmitter/FR8301A receiver is a Class 1 laser product that complies with FDA radiation
performance standard 21CFR Subchapter J and with IEC 60825-1 Edition 1.2, 2001-08.
