fiber optic converter for IP camera Ethernet telemetry Sbus

This fiber optic converter box is used for large drones to replace wireless image transmission video and data links with optical fiber. It can convert the video stream of the network camera, the flight control TTL, and the remote control’s Sbus Mavlink data into optical fiber signals.

Feature

1. The IP networking camera (RJ45) and CVBS analog camera are supported by both air and ground units.

Drone Air Unit (5-26V)

Ground Receiver Unit (5-24V)

FAQ

Q1: Is the fiber optic connector plug-and-play?

A1: Yes

Q2: Any cooling required?

A2: No Need.

Q3: What is the maximum length supported by the optical fiber cable?

A3: Default is 20km. Other length is optional.

This fiber optic converter set—air and ground units—supports multiple inputs, including AV camera, TTL/Sbus, and Ethernet from a sensor (but not an IP camera).

More

A fiber optic converter for IP camera systems integrates Ethernet data (video feed), telemetry (control signals like PTZ), and Sbus (serial communication bus) by converting electrical signals to optical signals for long-distance, high-integrity transmission. Below is a detailed breakdown of its functions and compatible solutions:

1. Core Functions

• Ethernet Extension: Converts IP camera Ethernet signals (10/100M) to optical signals for transmission over single-mode fiber (SMF), extending range up to 20 km while avoiding EMI interference.

• Telemetry Support: Carries control signals (e.g., PTZ commands) via serial protocols (like RS485) over fiber, enabling real-time camera adjustments.

• Sbus Integration: Transmits serial bus (Sbus) data—used for auxiliary sensors or device control—alongside video and telemetry. This often requires pairing with RS485 fiber converters due to shared electrical characteristics.

2. Key Technical Specifications

• Fiber Types: Single-mode fiber (SMF) for long-range (up to 20 km) 6, or multi-mode for shorter distances.

• Data Rates:

  • Ethernet: 10/100M adaptive.

  • Serial: 0–5 Mbps adaptive for telemetry/Sbus.

• Industrial Durability: Operates in -40°C to 85°C environments, supports 9–24V DC wide-voltage input, and offers DIN rail mounting.

• Connectors: SC/LC/ST ports for fiber, RJ45 for Ethernet, and terminal blocks for RS485/Sbus wiring.
