A four-channel fiber converter for PTZ cameras, designed as a local unit for Fiber Base One. Same functionality as Fiber Dock One, but with SMPTE connector.
Fibre Node One has exactly the same functionality as FieldCast Fiber Dock One, and it has all inputs and outputs.
So what’s the difference? Fiber Node One comes with an SMPTE connector for standard SMPTE 311M/304 fiber optic cable and this additional connector adds a lot of functionality to the converter. SMPTE cable is a hybrid cable similar to FieldCast hybrid cable. It also has two fiber wires and two copper conductors for power transmission, but it uses much larger connectors that allow AC power to be passed across them.
Fibre Node One uses this feature to the maximum. If you connect a 100-240VAC power source to the other end of the cable, Fiber Node One will draw power from the cable and can still do everything a Fiber Dock One does, but without the need for local power. This means you can place the unit in any strategic position in the field and the SMPTE cable simply acts as a long extension cord. But Fiber Node one also uses the two fibers of the SMPTE cable!
One fiber is used to extend the fiber Ethernet network and the other fiber carries all four video signals coming from the FieldCast PTZ Monk units. This is where Fiber Base One comes into play. It connects to the remote end of the SMPTE cable, powers it, connects to the fiber optic Ethernet network and receives the four video signals. It has ethernet i/o and four 3G SDI output channels, just like Fiber Dock and Fiber Node, but it only has the SMPTE connector for fiber and power.
Basically, Fiber Base One is designed to act as a remote unit for Fiber Node One and Fiber Node One as a local unit for Fiber Base One.
