Marshall Electronics TeleCube Fiber Optic Input / Output Base Module - MDTCA
The Marshall MD-TC-A TeleCube Fiber Optic I/O Base Module is used to transmit and receive audio and video signals and is used with large MD series rack mount monitors. Using fiber optic technology for transfer of signals, the transmitter is compatible with SMPTE 310M, 292M, 259M, 297M, and 424M transmission standards.
Along with support for embedded audio, the MD-TC-A TeleCube transmits data with a transfer bandwidth ranging from 19.4Mbps to 3Gbps. Transferring data with return loses less than 10db 3 GHz, the transceiver transfers error-free data with very low system jitter. The module provides you with the option of CWDM laser diodes for transmission and supports long distance transmissions.
