Take the Next Step in Video

Step up to Digital RGB Fiber modem from Comm Port. It's the one digital fiber solution that gives you more capabilities over less fiber.

Fiber gives you greater signal integrity over longer distances - up to 2000m over multimode fiber and 20km over single-mode fiber. While analog transmission, principally using intensity modulation, is still common, analog signals are more prone to distortion and degradation than digital signals.

Multi fiber approaches are susceptible to synchronization and transmission latency deficiencies - small variations that degrade picture fidelity through problems with color convergence, shifting, smearing, and ghosting.

In contrast, Digital RGB Fiber modems use a single fiber provide precise color management, whether used directly or through a video matrix switch - plus CD-quality audio and keyboard and mouse functions.

Transmit RGB, Audio, Keyboard, Mouse - All On One Fiber

RGB Digital Fiber Modem Most high-resolution video solutions require three or more fibers to carry the color and sync information. Additional fibers are required for mouse and keyboard signals, bringing the total fiber count up to five.

The Digital RGB Fiber modem carries video, audio, keyboard, and mouse on a single fiber. Compatible with all common RGB techniques, including RGBHV, RGsB, and RsGsBs, the modem allows great flexibility in achieving high-resolution video and broadcast-quality audio.
