The Bosch Fiber Optic Series are transmission products that provide efficient, high quality video and data transmission via fiber optic cable. Fiber optic signals are immune to ground loops, radio frequency interference (RFI), electromagnetic interference (EMI), and cross talk because the video carrier is infrared light and is transmitted through a nonconductive fiber optic cable. Interference-free operation ensures reliable service. Unlike microwave, wire, and coaxial cable transmission systems, fiber optic transmission is difficult, if not impossible to tap. And, since fiber optic cable is nonconductive and does not radiate a signal, it is difficult to detect and locate. These compact devices are available in a surface mount enclosure or in a modular style package that can be rack-mounted using an optional EIA 48 cm (19 in.) compatible rack unit.
Common Specifications | |
NOTE: Specifications noted below apply to all models unless otherwise specified in applicable model section. | |
Optical Connector Type | ST (most modules) |
Optical Fiber Compatibility | 50/125 µm or 62.5/125 µm, graded index multimode glass fiber rated for a minimum bandwidth of 600 MHz-Km. For 50/125 fiber, subtract 4 dB from the specified optical budget value. |
Optical Distance Specifications | Specified transmission distances are limited to the optical loss of the fiber and any additional loss introduced by connectors, splices, and patch panels. The modules are designed to operate over the entire optical loss budget range, so they do not require a minimum loss in order to operate. |
Data and Power Connections | Removable screw terminal blocks |
Construction | Surface-mountable metal enclosure designed to maximize EMI/RFI shielding |
Environmental | |
Operating Temperature | –40°C to 74°C (–40°F to 165°F) |
Storage Temperature | –40°C to 85°C (–40°F to 185°F) |
Humidity | 0% to 95% relative, non-condensing |
Accessories | |
LTC 4600/00 blank panel (1 rack slot). Used to cover unused slots in LTC 4637 Series racks. | |
Replacement Power Supply Part Numbers | |
UPA-1509-60 | For 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz models |
UPA-1509-50 | For 230 VAC, 50/60 Hz models |
