10 Channel Video and Data Receiver


10 Channel Video and Data Transmitter

The ViLink ML10D is a Fiber Optic Digital Add Drop Fault Tolerant Self-Healing Multiplexer for transmitting up to 10 channels of uncompressed digital video and 10 channels of data over one fiber optic cable. The ML10D has the ability to transmit video and data signals in a redundant configuration to the command center over a single SM (single mode)s fiber optic cable.

This fully redundant and self-healing robust transmission platform additionally offers a full (NMS) monitoring capability at each node. The ML10D Series is compatible with NTSC (medium haul), PAL and CCIR video, and standard data interfaces such as EIA-RS-232 and EIA-RS-422. Vilink’s use of uncompressed analog to digital modulation techniques provides for adjustment free operation over a wide dynamic range. This digital signaling also offers superior receiver output stability, which is unaffected by changes in fiber path attenuation due to aging or splicing points.

The ML10D multiplexers provide several advanced features in the master receiver unit, including a “Build-in Matrix Switch” function, allowing the users to reduce the number of monitors in the control center. This unique feature may be further maintained with the VILINK Plus+ (NMS) Network Management & (GUI) Interface Software Package. The “NMS” also permits users the ability of monitoring the entire system for status alarms, such as loss of video or optical signal, on any one of the system channels.

Applications for the ML Series include long haul CCTV, campus fiber networks, ITS traffic surveillance, homeland security, SCADA systems, and military applications.
