MODEL LM200

1 Channel FM Video with Return Audio or Data Channel

DESCRIPTION

The LM200 and LM200i are Frequency Modulated (FM), fiber optic video systems that transmits a video signal in one direction and an audio or data signal in the opposite direction over one fiber (LM200i) or two fibers (LM200). Distances of 6Km over one multimode fiber and over 10OKm over one singlemode fiber. PAL, SECAM or NTSC formats, in B&W or color, are seamlessly transmitted. The LM200's capabilities are enhanced by it's compatibility with Lascomm's PC based SpectraSmart TM Network Management and Diagnostic software system. SpectraSmart™ supervises the operating parameters of the transmission system such as status on video levels, sync, FM carrier detect, voltage, temperature, optical levels, etc., and external equipment which are attached to the Lascomm equipment. See the SpectraSmart™ brochure for more details.
