A four-channel fiber converter for PTZ cameras designed as an external unit for Fiber Node One. It has a SMPTE connector to communicate with Fiber Node One.
It has one SMPTE connector and requires one SMPTE 311M / 304 fiber optic cable to connect to, power, and communicate with Fiber Node One. At the input, Fiber Base One accepts any voltage level between 100 and 240 VAC, and the output level of the SMPTE connector is equal to the input level.
So if you plug into a 220V outlet, the SMPTE connector will just provide 220V. Fiber Base One gives you four channels of 3G SDI output and Ethernet I/O, just like Fiber Dock One and Fiber Node One, and you can connect directly to the switcher, connect one or more PTZ controllers, add a multiviewer, recorders, whatever you want.
Communication with Fiber Node One is quite simple. One fiber of the SMPTE cable is used to connect to Fiber Node’s fiber optic Ethernet switch. This means that a PTZ controller connected to Fiber Base is part of the same network as a PTZ controller connected to Fiber Node, and both can control any PTZ camera on the network. The other fiber of the SMPTE cable forwards all four video signals that reached Fiber Node One to Fiber Base One, which means that the four SDI outputs of both Fiber Node One and Fiber Base One output exactly the same signals.
In other words, when connected, Fiber Base One, the remote system, and Fiber Node One, the local system, are functionally equivalent and can work together. Typically, Fiber Base One is placed in a control room or OB bus and connected to the switcher, where Fiber Node One is mounted in a flight case and connected to a portable mul7viewer.
