The Optivideo 1550-FA-OV2950 is a 1550nm fiber optic transmitter engineered for long-distance video signal transmission in professional broadcast, AV, and surveillance applications. Operating at 1550nm wavelength, the unit delivers stable, high-quality signal transport over extended fiber runs while maintaining precise optical power control through integrated stabilization and thermoelectric cooler circuits. A microprocessor-based monitoring system tracks operational parameters and displays status on an LCD panel, enabling real-time system diagnostics and configuration management.

– Compatibility & Integration
The unit integrates into standard 19-inch rack environments and supports both legacy RS232 control and modern Ethernet-based network management. SC/APC optical connectors provide industry-standard interfacing; alternative connector types are available upon specification. Operation in stable thermal environments (nominal 25°C) with regulated power supplies is recommended in installations subject to voltage fluctuation or temperature variation. Invisible laser radiation emits from optical output ports—direct eye exposure must be avoided.
