The Guardian-Lite™ 4600 Series is designed for low cost multi-channel point-to-point video transmission over multimode optical fibre - together with associated Ethernet, low speed data and audio signals.
The system can provide a highly resilient, managed, low cost, transmission system for both compressed and uncompressed video signals. It allows the user to pick and choose the best from all technologies both now and in the future, by making sure the system can cater for all the future needs from the outset.
The video is transmitted in a real time full bandwidth digital format. This ensures high quality transmission regardless of distance. As no compression of the video is used, there is no compromise on quality or latency. The unique drop and insert system provides for significant cost savings on the infrastructure without any increase in equipment cost.
When configured in a dual redundant option Guardian- Lite™ 4600 ensures no loss of signal during a catastrophic fibre failure.
Guardian-Lite™ 4600 can be delivered with a dedicated Network Management System (NMS) providing alarms associated with the breaks in the optical fibre together with loss of video signals. The NMS system can also operate with SNMP management.
