Fiber Dock System One is a turnkey system containing everything you need to control and power four PTZ cameras over fiber, and cover a distance of approximately 100 meters/ 328 ft. The system uses only one fiber optic cable per camera to transport, monitor, and control the video and camera data while also remotely powering the camera. No local power supplies for the cameras are needed.
Compact, efficient, and easy to deploy, Fiber Dock System One is the smart all-in-one solution to unify four PTZ camera operations over fiber.
Fiber Dock System One is compatible with:
• 3G SDI PTZ cameras with an Ethernet port to transport camera control data
• a camera control unit (CCU) with an Ethernet port to transport camera control data
PTZ cameras and a camera controller are not included in the bundle.
The bundle contains:
1x Fiber Dock One
Installed near your monitoring equipment and PTZ controller—away from the camera location—Fiber Dock One acts as the central station where all connections come together. It routes the SDI video from camera to switcher or monitor, handles Ethernet control data between camera and controller, and delivers remote power to each connected PTZ camera.
4x PTZ Monk
PTZ Monk is the converter for the PTZ camera. Placed near the PTZ camera, it connects the camera to Fiber Dock One via FieldCast Hybrid main cable. PTZ Monk converts 3G SDI video to fiber and also provides Ethernet over fiber and power output over fiber. The turnkey system contains 4x PTZ Monk, one converter for each PTZ camera.
4x 2Core SM Hybrid 100m on drum
This is the hybrid fiber optic cable that transports uncompressed SDI video over fiber, the Ethernet based camera control data, and the DC power out to your PTZ camera. One cable per camera, hence 4 cables for 4 PTZ cameras.
