Abstract

We demonstrate a 1 Gbit/s video transmission over up to 15 m of polymer cladded silica (PCS) optical fiber using high speed fiber optic transceiver (FOT) technology. The video link consists of a camera with an electrical S800 LVDS interface and a high resolution monitor. A pair of fiber optic cable connects the two ports replacing and extending the regular electrical cable. In contrast to the electrical cable the optical fiber is thin, light weight, and highly flexible. The high power budget margin of the link allows 3 in-line connectors for the 10–15 m link length. For other applications a longer link length is feasible using higher bandwidth optical fiber.
